I dont see anything wrong with it at all.. Hell he is right... there are a LOT of more expensive hobbies than that. I mean paintballing is probably more expensive. I'd rather paintball... but just because this is a video game hobby doesn't really make him that insane. A lot of people will overreact and turn to stereotypes to claim that he has no life and all the girls will hate him. But for all we know, he could probably be a pretty popular guy, goes out often, gets laid often, or may even be married... Just because he spends money on something doesn't mean that is all he is doing. I respect the guy actually, he has the balls to show the world that he does something everyone thinks is absurd, but he really might just do it in a hobby fashion.
Yeah he has the balls, like homos or pedos coming out of the closet.
I don't buy the hobby card. With hobbies like paintballing, sports, cooking, etc. At least you achieve something. I fail to see what he achieves here, online gaming is a fantasy. Every item, every level, is a piece of data stored in a computer. That's why people say he has no life. He is obsessed with imaginary objects. The fact that you "don't see anything wrong with it" probably reflects your own feelings of value for imaginary things in computers and the internet.
I don't really see the difference between this guy and his setup, and the obsessed Star Wars geek with 36 outfits and 1000's of action figurines in his basement. Both are just as sad.
Homosexuals and pedophiles are not the same. Your statement is very stupid and ignorant.
Coming out of the closet for a homosexual is nothing sad or bad as you imply. It has saved many people from ostracism and even suicide, when they were afraid of what persons like you would think. Luckily, nowadays the only sad person is you.
The people who admire this guy and take up for him scare me.
People who judge others on how they spend their time and money (if it is not hurting others - and they are not neglecting their lives) scare me.
QFT
I have no problem with the guy playing 36 accounts... but the people judging.. bloody eejits.
This guy is just playing his game the way he likes, hurting noone, yet ppl feel the need to slam him just to make themselves feel like they have it going on, or are doing things right.
I'd love to look in their closets and see what skeletons they have hidden.
Too much money, no life and will probably never be with a woman in his lifetime.
He offended you that much did he, mr. perfect?
Did I ever mention I was offended? If you got that from what I wrote you need a class in reading comprehension. Name calling of which I didn't do but you have resorted to are not needed.
Seriously, the guy calls unneeded attention to himself to show what a super nerd he is and you expected comments that were totally complimentary in nature? Get a grip.
haha, ok jimmy. I just assumed he offended you because you layed into him so harshly.. "no life and will probably never be with a woman..."
Didn't see any other reason for your lame response.
Oh and for the record, your small minded reply to this topic DID offend me, which is why I insulted you.
And for the record, we are all here posting on a video game forum.. we are ALL nerds.

I was thinking the same thing. I wonder how many of these people do things that can be considered distasteful by one group or another.
as a matter of course, I looked up some other past times in order to get some perspective. I found a country club (read golf) where the individual membership was 14,000.00 per year.
I'd rather pay 6,500.00 per year to play WoW than 14,000.00 per year to play golf!

Really? Coming from the guy who's feelings were hurt on the Darkfall forums? You should come visit again some time, my sig is dedicated to you
I don't like to judge people, but you have to feel somewhat disapointed in the way players are playing the games these days. In the early days of MMOs it might have been neat to see someone multi boxing to this extent, but now there are so many people doing it that there is no interaction in the games. Even WoW had a lot of grouping for instances when it first came out, but now it's truely a solo game until you get to the top and apparently even at the top it's a solo game if you can afford to setup enough accounts and have the patience to control that many characters at once.
Does anyone other than me find it ODD that in the second image in the first post.....the screenshot appears to be in Shattrath, but the chat log says, "Durotar is under attack?"
Is there a mod that shows local defense from other zones, or a private server that does that or something?
I was in awe a bit when i first read about this dude. but now that i think about it. whats the fuckin point? mmorpg's are meant for people from around the world or nation at least to be able to come together and do quests, raids, pvp, and other amazing things. this dude has completely secluded himself from having to interact with anyone ever.
Just to clarify, Bradster isnt the guy that 36 boxes, Bradster 5 boxes. Brad just posted the link about it, and has unfortunately taken all the credit.
i have to say its kind of awesome. this guy has some talent to be able to control that many players at once. hell i have a hard enough time with one sometimes. the point in him doing it is he doesnt have to rely upon the rest of us to form a group or raid and waste hours on end waiting for people. he can get in get it done and go about his business. if theres a wipe its his fault and not some other dickhead not paying attention or doing something stupid.
If that is how he wants to spend his time and hard earned cash then good luck to him, doesn't hurt anyone by my understanding so good luck to the fella!
On one hand it's his money, his life, and his time...
On the other hand a MMORPG is a social game and his multi-account botting gives him an unfair advantage over other players. He rolled mostly shaman and intends on PvPing.
He is botting and Blizzard has decided that botting is not permitted in WoW so if he isn't already banned he probably will be soon.
Which means he is wasting his time, money, and life both ingame and out of game since he will have nothing to show for it both ingame and out of game when he gets banned and all that gear he bought is worthless.
However, I suspect the guy has a tech job and set all that up with a bunch of trial WoW accounts just as a photo gag.
I'm shocked. I've never seen something like this before. I mean 36 accounts? Wow and he's spending so much money just on WoW. No doubt he problably has put enough into the game to cover a year's worth of an company employee's paycheck.
who cares if the guy is social or not. maybe he doenst need to talk to all the weirdos and idiots in game to be social. perhaps this guy is social outside of the game unlike all the people crying about he isnt being social and thats what the game is for. if youre playing a game to be social, then you need to look at yourself because thats an issue.

How can someone be social like this? Any normal person would try to talk to him about his addiction and help him through it...I mean come on, how can you support this?.. Ever heard of the guy who died by playing like 3weeks straight on 360, not sure if thats real or not but it's possible. And he's a likely target of heart attack.
And you're saying people who social on mmos need help? What about people who spend all the time on phones or all that? You can't be this much iggnorant, can ya?

This guy must have an awesome job to pay for this. I'm actually impressed.
Does anyone other than me find it ODD that in the second image in the first post.....the screenshot appears to be in Shattrath, but the chat log says, "Durotar is under attack?"
Is there a mod that shows local defense from other zones, or a private server that does that or something?
President of The Marvelously Meowhead Fan Club
No, he's in the WorldDefense channel as opposed to the LocalDefense channel.
Now seeing how many jerks there are in MMOs this seems like a perfectly reasonable thing to do, ja ne?
I was in awe a bit when i first read about this dude. but now that i think about it. whats the fuckin point? mmorpg's are meant for people from around the world or nation at least to be able to come together and do quests, raids, pvp, and other amazing things. this dude has completely secluded himself from having to interact with anyone ever.
at least imo whats the point of playing?
Just to clarify, Bradster isnt the guy that 36 boxes, Bradster 5 boxes. Brad just posted the link about it, and has unfortunately taken all the credit.

Level 61 except 1 level 70 all of them are untalented so he must have a busy life just now or he is banned.
"The liberties and resulting economic prosperity that YOU take for granted were granted by those "dead guys"
Well now....atleast he probably makes alotta money
but eh, I could never be so obsessed to be that addicted...
Oh who am I kidding?
HOLY WILLICARS, JESUS!
I think I made my point!
Also as above me, I agree. It is a social game...he's not being very social, I wonder if he talks to himself?
I'm shocked. I've never seen something like this before. I mean 36 accounts? Wow and he's spending so much money just on WoW. No doubt he problably has put enough into the game to cover a year's worth of an company employee's paycheck.
