Players here should not have to spend extra money they may or may not have on a second pc and copy of NWN just to be competitive here.
If I ever dual log, and I don't do it well, I do it on a single computer. I find dual logging 2 toons hard enough when I have 1 mouse, keyboard and screen to pay attention to, how on earth ppl manage to do it with 3, I have no idea :)

Why would I want to count 12 hours twice? I’m perfectly capable of counting to 24, and while we’re at it, can someone go shoot named time zones. GMT+x is all we need!

i lol at players that think voice communication on nwn's servers is the bestest strategy ever. i have used voice for other games, it was necessary there because our parties were atleast 70-100 players strong raiding cities and constantly changing strategic formations to combat the 70-90 players you were fighting against. fast paced games like that leave you no time to type chat.

i remember a day when another dm and i along with 2 other players walked into the old LA gaggle of voice chatters and dominated 12 of them. we didn't voice chat. we type chatted our strategy. the basics are simple if you know how to play and how to communicate efficiently you don't need voice against 5-15 players....the action will never move fast enough to demand it.


all that being said we've told the players before, dual/triple logging is an all or nothing deal. we CAN lock all players from multi boxing, but that means everyone...there would be no roomates playing from any other house ever.

Well you would lose me and my brother as a player. Which would be to bad, because we just started to get addicted to the server.

I if you ask me multi boxing/duel logging isn't that big of a deal unless the server is almost full. And i hear alot of crying over pvp. if the guy sucks so bad that he needs a folder of toons to kill you. Just take it as a complement

Mabey if they are camping the cradleis the problem, and you have a ss of it. The dm or dev could look in to it and practice some hard justice and del the toon. :twisted: I can tell you not many people will risk all the hours they put into the toon by curse songing then letting him die while they use another to defend/attk.

Well thats my fitty-cents

I thought a buddy of mine's system that he quint-logs WoW on was over the top. That' right there is just wrong.

well for me voice comm isnt about stradegy or tactics, its about not sitting at a comp completely silent playing video games in a dark dank basement somewhere, i wouldnt play this game, as it would be insanely boring, if it wasnt for voice comm, most of the time i just get on to chat with the friends ive made here, i dont really seem to actually do anything ingame anymore unless theres some pvp going i can jump in on. i honestly dont see how this game can be enjoyable without being able to talk to someone while playing. i highly recommend the ts server cely set up for us!

on another note....

i do enjoy reading the whining on the forums though :mrgreen: if the games making you that stressed ya gotta post garbage all the time, then take a break - do something else for a while, then come back and play for fun, dont take it so seriously, worked for me :wink: .
The truth is just an excuse for those with a lack of imagination.

I know for a fact that Neil has a roommate that plays NS4.
Achilles told me the same, You really sukk if you have ti have 2 or 3 toons to beat one. Do you understand this, it is like healing in a pk battle and MD was great at this and like sitting on the portals. DM's didn't do crap until Slaves told DD and he did something. Talking to the head DM is useless. The head DM breaks the rules until he get's caught, so, lol , why trust a thief who lies. MD would lie dead for like 6 hours until another MD logged on. I finally say something and it is brought to life, (beautiful). Need to understand everyone else beside yourself and hear there complaints, instead of blowing them off.

Sorry Pup, Neil is a computer I built that runs multiple other computers. Therefor he is able to change vocal resonances at will between any said computer and imitate other voices, all voices used by "Neil and company" and voices of semi-real people that I was able to shove into the programming. ::Disclaimer : Any similarities between Neil, Neil and company, or any other part of this conversation is pure coincidence::

Saying that dual logging is "bad play" or "proves weakness" is like saying your characters would never run around with bard or cleric buffs... is that true of any of you? When it is please send actual complaints... until then the only thing I can say is this : Do like the rest of us dual/triple/quad/quint/etc loggers do/did "Log a buffer and run with it, in PvP hit the big and the bad then run the best". I talked with truefalse, neil, and trusek for quite a while when we were all doing this... it was the same thing for all of us.

ya. neil multi logs on voice comm too! - and talks to himself all day long. (these conspiracy theories are comical). neil does have a roommate and he's great fun and a great player.

i agree with tep. honestly the voice comm isn't very good for strategy. you get things like, "he killed me right here in the corner! here they come!" which makes you wonder who killed who? what corner? who's coming? and from where and when?in other words, nothing useful at all.

but we have fun. tru3fals3 is correct - when i'm away from the game, i don't miss the game. i certainly don't miss the drama. - i miss my friends. the voice comm and conversations there are 98% of the allure for me now. we've become close enough friends that we've considered travelling together. its just too bad that neil multi-logs on vent and ruins it for us all. lol.
