When i say different location i mean a different physical real life address. As i have stated in my previous example. If he has a toon setup at his work and he plays from home. I don't see how that would be considered 2 boxing aslong as he is not remotely playing the 2nd character at the other location.

All these "technically" statements like a cute little young lawyer won't change the fact that what you're describing is using 2 characters for personal gain aka 2-boxing. If we're in the realm of "technically" then "technically" the idle character is generating platinum by uploading his log. How is that different from farming seafuries on one character and raiding on another?

This is an interesting point. The rule states that there must be one real person per logged in account. Now if my friend lets me run EQ on his PC all day so that I can have a bot sitting in EC while I play my main, that means I have access to and the advantage of two accounts at once correct? Unless of course my friend is actually active in game, and he is donating his time to help me make more plat.

Now im sure this will be equated to having someone sell an item for you in EC or something along those lines, the only issue is that that can't happen unless that other person is actually at the comp and playing.

Not sure if it really could be a 2box ban, but its an interesting point nonethless.

The fact still remains that the only in game transaction going on for this service is plat being exchanged for a login to private website.

Could we please get a GM to settle this? If its allowable I would love to setup a "CC any zone in the game and check any spawn in the game live feed website"

How are you going to get a character in every zone in the game to obtain the logs for that?

Why thank you.

Wifeaggro, the guy who made this, has already said that he has a friend or two who keep their characters logged in for this.

I have a friend who has a character and afk in EC

EDIT: for real, I have few more friends being the client side just in case one of the clients disconnected or crashed

Someone who has been on the server longer than I can fix this analogy for me, if its inaccurate. I remember reading forum posts about mages farming kills while afk by keeping a pet on spawn points, before some nerf changed that. This would be like that.

This is now a fact? I once again refer to the statement I've already made about this that I promised to stop bringing up but apparently can't.

That would be an awesome website for some people. I personally wouldn't use it (just like I wouldn't use my client's), but still a good idea. I'd be interested to hear how you'd do it within the established rules of the server.

No its definitely not a fact, because he is sending all this info in tells right? Your not getting access to a website or anything else right? This entire service takes place in game right? I must have completely misunderstood whats going on here! Give me a break dude.

The excuses you have listed for this being a legit service just don't stand up here, and even if they did my statement would still be a fact. You can continue to imagine that this service he is running does not function the way it clearly does, I'll wait for a GM to weight in.

That's all I had to add, since the rest is just more of the same, with a dash of sarcasm for flavor. We'll just have to agree that we both read the rules differently. This debate really ended a couple of pages ago, but it was still fun.

Also, now I want pizza for lunch, for some reason.
