Title: ultimate in multiple accts - 36 players by himself!
Post by: eagl on October 11, 2008, 01:43:22 PM
This guy has far too much time on his hands, but it certainly is the logical ultimate end-point in multiplayer online gaming -- maximizing what one person can do in a single game.

11 computers and a totally custom setup.  Very cool.  Creepy, but cool.

Stupid BBS filter changed "w h o r e" to "potato"...    Replace potato with "w h o r e" (without the spaces) and it works.  Or go to the basic website and search for the article.

I hope I don't get banned for bypassing the filter...  :confused: :( :rolleyes: :pray :huh

Im amazed how quickly they through out that 'loser' tag when its pretty obvious to me he must be doing something right to be able to afford not only the systems but the accounts!

Don't you mean "throw" away daddy's trust fund?  It seems pretty obvious, to me, that someone with that much time for WoW has very little time for gainful employment.

i would be willing to bet he is one of those guys that builds a character then sells it on e-bay. i know its ridiculous to consider but some high level characters have sold for hundreds of dollars to people who don't want to go through the time to build one from the ground up. think about your likely hood of success if every time you entered a furball you had 28 or 30 dedicated wingmen.
wild and impressive system, but the guy definitely has toooooooooo much time on his hands!

Considering how much money he's putting into his setup and the accounts it doesn't seem likely he's doing it for business like those wacko asians. Besides, his character names suck.

Before my fourth cup of coffee the words sometimes get jumbled up and spelled wrong.

Plus they don't bring up the cost of each computer in the article.

The fact that he has 36 accounts is not so bad compared to what seems to be 11 laptops with Vista on them..  :salute

Usually I take stuff like this as hilarious...this...isn't even funny. Talk about a guy with way tooo much time on his hands.

Not at all. Some people enjoy playing online with their friends, and still having a social life. Why spend 200 hours leveling a character when you can have somebody else do it for you for about a dollar an hour? It's a pretty popular type of service for a lot of people.
