This has been pretty well covered and beaten into the ground by now, but … why not? I mean, multiboxing is the act of playing multiple characters together by yourself. So why is it that my product should be any less allowed than Wine? (And, what would happen if they ban one but not the other?) So, why is multiboxing allowed? Yet, not only is Wine allowed for use, CCP provides information on how you can use it. Here’s a news flash for you, Wine is open source and if someone wanted to hack the shit out of EVE, all they need to do is install Wine. Here’s a handy guide on that explains how you can do that. You can also run EVE Online through Wine in order to play on Linux. Inner Space also has in-game overlay functions, much like Steam. You just play the games you already got somewhere else. Inner Space is a gaming platform, much like Steam, except you don’t purchase games through my platform.

First of all, have you heard of Steam? EVE Online is available on Steam, which is a third party program that can even run the game for you. I’ll briefly respond to Allataria’s comment “ I can’t see how any third party program that runs the game for you would be allowed” myself. And Blizzard will also talk to me (if not also the community) should they change their stance in the future. You will get the same from Blizzard if you ask, even though Blizzard has shown no signs of wanting to ban for using ISBoxer. It’s a guarded “I’m not banning for it” response. Since CCP does not have control over ISBoxer, they can and should - legally - avoid recommending it (from their point of view). (I don’t have a reciprocal method of contacting you directly.)īut mostly, I think this is a predictable response and fits in line with what is expected from CCP and other game publishers when faced with this question, especially about any particular product. I also have at least one active EVE account with my personal information on it. That is very courteous, and I appreciate that as I am certain all multiboxers do! But hey, CCP, we’re not in our own sandboxes here, you can communicate directly with me as well if you have a question or concern about ISBoxer! My e-mail address is public, feel free to contact me at any time. Given that this is from the CCP Security team, it is actually quite nice of them to suggest that if they do decide to ban for using ISBoxer, that they will let everyone know first. I was sort of surprised to see this response from CCP Sreegs… (click for full image) But, funny enough, EVE also has its fair share of haters. Multiboxing is EULA-compliant, lots of EVE players do it, it’s generally accepted, and multiboxing obviously preferred to actually hacking or botting.

First, some politics…ĮVE is one of the games friendliest to multiboxing.
