WotLK Hacker report, please ban.

[Sutilus]

Hi, I'm not sure about how to report a hacker, so I'll post it here.
I've seen a player, a horde rogue, who was being followed by 3 (or more) rogues. At first I thought it was some kind of friend with /follow, but then I noticed that they were even jumping at the same time. This player/s stop at the same time, unmount, vanished, attack me on the back, killed me, run out jumping and mount up and gone, all this things exactly in the same place and at the same time (macros? bots?)

Nope, just your lack of knowledge. Called "multibox".
And before you say "unfair", 4 players on 4 rogues would kill you even more brutally

I know what multiboxing is. But one thing is having different accounts open at the same time to do different things, and other make use of macros to do exactly the same things with 4 or 5 different characters. That's literally like playing with a x5 dmg buff. And this is not the official wow, that player is not giving hundreds of money in monthly subs to support the server. Using multiboxing for that in oficial server is not allowed, and I'll like to know if it is or not here.

Well, clearly you don't. It was prime example of multibox. One key press sends it to all open WoW clients at one's PC.

Multiboxing is allowed here, within a limit that is.

Do note retail multiboxing isn't allowed in retail(afaik, they're really not enforcing it either) for different reasons. In retail resources (deposits, herbs) weren't contested. Like player Bob would mine a deposit, loot and leave. Player Hank would then proceed to mine the very same deposit Bob just did, take his loot and leave. Think what would happen if people with multiboxes running mined the same deposit. Yep, loot multipliers equal to amount of clients you mine it on.

Multiboxing used to be harder to access due to hardware limitations. Now pretty much every player could run their own team without sweat (or high temperatures on PC), so it became accessible to many. Now that multiboxing got "easy" more started doing it, not the selected few who had beefy systems. With much smalled budget than retail and giant like a Blizzard, Warmane decided to reduce the multibox limit to 5 in open areas. Raids and instances are still unlimited, just have to ferry 5 at a time inside the raid. Ofc 5 is limit in PvP too.

Also a good idea is to read how to report properly.

Good catch.
