I didn't even know that something like this would be possible.

Wow. That is the definition of sad and obsessed.

That is crazyness indeed. I am just thinking of exactly how much money that guy must be spending on hardware, subscription bills, electricity, etc.

I don't get it, why do this? Are these people selling virtual stuffs?

They just play with multiple characters at the same time using lots of hardware and shit. Sick and sad people. Seriously. Try to tell me that there are such guys in all those 40k< active EVE players. :roll:

Farming gold and selling it on teh internets for $$ most likely. Though some obsessives will run multiple boxes just for laffs. I used to have accounts running on 3 boxes at home when I used to play Diablo 2. Great for power leveling and muling stuff

5 Warlord characters.........

I had one Field Marshal character (same thing just alliance side) and I wanted to pull my hair out during that grind.

Must be fun to have such a setup. Completely destroys the purpose of multiplayer and no friends to play with you.

I'm wondering what the people at Blizzard say when they see something like this. Probably just sigh and shake their head. I bet there is nothing that can surprise these people anymore

(the sock poopers are still my favourite)

they rub their hands with glee at one person paying for so many accounts

For the sake of epic virtual items.

I disagree completely. They are gamers that take gaming seriously.

Yeah, 'obsessed' is spending months gearing out a single character, 'efficient' is using that same amount of time to do the same with five characters.

It takes a lot mor money than normal, though.
