Dual boxing on Wow?
Question by Taurismoo: Dual boxing on Wow?
I am about to get a second account, but does anyone know how it works? I do have a Mac, which I know should be able to do it, but I am just unclear on how to do it.
Also, is it a bannable offense by Blizzard?

edit: I misread, ok with one computer you want to have two windows set up, one for each character. And you probably can’t play both at the same time, but you’ll just use whichever one you need at the moment, constantly swithcing from one to the other, and when you move just set one to follow the other. Maybe have one be a healer and the other a tank so you can heal your group and keep the healer from getting killed. Basically a healer and something. It is not a bannable offense by Blizzard as long as your own both accounts.
Give your answer to this question below!
you wont be able to have 2 accounts running logged in at the same time. your ip can only be on one server at a time if u log on on one and try the other the first one will be kicked from server to make room for your second. sorry. its not a reason for you getting banned dnt worry.
You will have to switch back and forth between windows if you are only using one computer. Make sure it has the top of the line hardware or you will experience lag.
The answer above mine is incorrect – I know many people who multibox on the same computer and have no issues. You just have to have your two characters logged in from different accounts.
You can run 2 accounts at one time, just not 2 characters from the same account.
Dual boxing is not against Blizzards TOS and is perfectable acceptable. You can do this on either one computer or two.
