If you are not aware of Dual Boxing or what it is then read the article our site by Westley
It seems there are two main schools of thought on the subject – its cheating or its an allowable advantage.
I can see the point of the cheating claim but I feel they are missing the point as nothing that can be done by a player using two accounts is better than two players colluding together. In fact its probably harder for a single player to control two accounts and certainly in a combat situation this would be the case.
I think my view is settled in the allowable advantage camp and I’m going to give it a try.
I see many, many players posting in the forums that they use more than one account and I don’t think dual boxing is a small minority of players. If I only benefit from the help in mining and salvaging I think it will be worth it. Plus I’ve got alts that haven’t really been trained as I would like and I wish I had taken the time to research training skills as soon as I started playing Eve.
This could be a way to train up a character for the additional functions I’m currently missing out on.
Now I just need to justify the additional expense..
