This isn't legal!
this is called dual boxing i believe to get programs and stuff go to dual-boxing.com
This is leagal just make sure there under the same name and u always use it under the same I.P. they may think its a power leveler or sumthing i use to do this during my EQ days. but yeah i think if u have them under the same credit card number and eveything u'll be alright =)
p.s This is sooooo old i relized this when EQ came out
Just going a little deeper with this and i`ll explain my actions with this trick.
First off, if you try to dual log the same account the first game window will get disconnected as soon as the second tries to log in, this i know cuz my brother and i use each others accounts every now and then and get logged out as soon as the other tries to open the others account when he is already on.
If you have 2 accounts there will be no problem logging them at the same time on the same computer, you don`t even need to run them in window mode, but it might be recommended if you have a slow computer.
Let`s say on one account you have a high lvl character but want to make a lvl 19 twink, there`s no way you can boost the new char with the old one by yourself unless you have access to another account. In this case we have 2 accounts with one mid lvl char just able of killing the bosses and on the second account you have the 70 char and the new desired twink, here`s what you do: First log both accounts with the highest char to do the boosting. Then make the mid lvl char leader in the group with the high lvl char and enter the desired instance. Put the mid lvl leader just at the entrance out of harms way and just clear the path to any bosses with the high lvl char, just to save time (or just use the mid lvl but loose time). When you have cleared a path, exit the game with the high lvl char and choose exit now instead of waiting the 20 secs, if you accidently pulled the boss you can ctrl+alt+del and force quit the game to loose the agro so your "twink" can loot afterwards. Then remember to invite the twink and move him into the loot vicinity of the boss and kill him with the other char, viola your twink can loot. If you need to clear a path further repeat the exit prosedure with the twink and relog the high lvl char. Now here you`ll see the trick by exiting the game instead of logging out, the first high lvl char is still in the team and at the place where you logged him out so you don`t have to re-enter the instance to get into the same one. Now repeat this until the instance has been cleared.
Ok, you might ask why i use 1 high lvl and 1 mid lvl instead of using 1 high lvl only to help the twink thru the instance.... well easy, i only have access to one high lvl and that char is on the same account i want my twink on therefor i only have access to a mid lvl account for help. Of course this boosting will be alot easier if you have access to one high lvl account for help, but now you got the what to do if you only have access to a mid lvl one
The reason i didn`t make a new post about this is because the main idea was started by someone else, i only wanted to deepen it a bit.
how are u able to open up two WoW windows?
Easy, just open your wow.exe file twice or whatever you use to start up wow. Like opening 2 explorer windows, the only thing holding you back is your own computer power.
Here is an idea if you only have one account.
1. Invite a friend to a party and convert it to a raid.
2. Make him/her leader then relog on your twink.
3. Make your friend invite you on the twink.
4. Log back and forth on twink/main while doing mobs (make sure you have FFA loot)
In a raid you wont get kicked from the raid by logging so it is a bit better that way. You do need a friend to get invited but you dont get the lag. It is rather tedious but you dont need to log on the twink all the time cause you can check what loot there is on the main and then log on the twink when you see something you need.

This is almost the same as i wrote, and you don`t get kicked from a regular group if you "Exit" the game. Don`t you need a full group to create a raid party? Also, i`m pretty sure you can`t log on your twink after you`ve killed the mob to get the loot for him, you have to be close with your twink when you land the first hit on the mob. I haven`t tried doing this in a raid group, but if you can loot this way though, +rep, if not you should have checked it before writing it. Gonna try it out when i get the time.Originally Posted by Dizziness
