WotLK multiboxing in rbgs

[antreas74]

im not sure where i can post about that or if i can post link so i will just coppy what it says

We disabled /follow from use in battlegrounds to curb some of the most basic types of bots that use the command. We chose not to communicate it beforehand in attempts to catch as many bots unaware as possible. Removing /follow in battlegrounds is one small change we can make immediately to stop a number of bots, and those that choose to transition to more overt botting methods will have a much higher chance of being caught and banned.

We did consider those who use /follow for other reasons, including multiboxing, before making the change. Multiboxing in battlegrounds has been a long-fought battle within the community, as the effect of multiboxers in those situations is considered unfavorable by many. When we were looking to make a change to disable a command used by bots, which would benefit the game as a whole, we were ok with it also resulting in multiboxing in battlegrounds also going away due to the poor experience it can create for others.

Right now /follow is also disabled in Arenas, but we're looking to revert that change as bots don't typically exist in Arenas, and multiboxing in that kind of pre-determined group environment doesn't tend to be as disruptive.
so not even in blizzard you can use multiboxing in rbgs

In case you're as lost as I am, this is a blue post from Blizzard from 2013 (during MoP)

this isn't retail. boxing was possible in wotlk, it's allowed here. it was recently limited to 25 characters. no one cares if you agree with the decision. deal with it or avoid them.

thats exactly what im trying to do!! to avoid them in RBGS...you have open world pvp server plus wintergrasp battleground to play with 25 characters im not say to ban MB stop trying to "attack" me!! just keep it in controll-balance...plus im 100% sure that im not the only one complaint about that its not just my opinion that "no one cares about"...
