https://forum.nostalrius.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=8#p13It's not allowed and can lead to a ban of one of the characters followed by both if repeated. You're only allowed to play multiple characters for banking and profession purposes, such as crafting gear, items, or enchanting your other character.
First of all, there in fact
are grey lines for this server, and the rules simply aren't consistent when it comes to multi-boxing.
According to the rules:
1. You are NOT aloud to simultaneously play two characters at once.
2. You ARE allowed to be LOGGED into TWO accounts at once ONLY if you are ENCHANTING or CRAFTING gear for another character..
Call it what you want - but Enchanting, Crafting, whatever it may be, is still "
playing" the game. Though you aren't gaining XP to level you are gaining skill for that profession and thus getting a heads up when you shouldn't (the original game wasn't made that way, * cough* CD KEYS). That takes away from people's professions. We all know the game wasn't meant to be made that way... So this is obviously a rule that heirs specifically to the developers of this server to their own personal bias, which I have no problem with - but I'm just saying it's not consistent.
Let's look at another point
Here -->
https://forum.nostalrius.org/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=8#p13 states that you can QUE up for a BG with your main, & while he is in QUE you can log on another character and play your ALT. Once your main has got the QUE you must LOG off your ALT and then proceed to play with your main. This is the most hypocritical rule I've ever seen. You're using a advantage to play two characters at the same time! Though not simultaneously, but at the same time!
My Solution: Do it how it should be - Don't let people log on two different characters at once, otherwise let them multi-box as long as they aren't using any third-party programs. What's the harm?
Just my 2 cents. Love the server by the way.
