Multiboxing PvE and PvP allowed?

[kaba]

I just wanted to clarify whether playing on the PvE and PvP realm simultaneously is considered unlawful multiboxing or not.

The ToU mentions "the Game" which is never clearly defined. It might even disallow playing on another private server like Kronos at the same time, if "the Game" equals Vanilla WoW.

VI. Multiboxing

Multiboxing refers to playing multiple characters simultaneously. This can either be achieved by using multiple machines to run the Game or by running multiple instances of the Game. The following rules are not meant to be exhaustive, and using multiple characters to level, farm reputation, run dungeons, do raids and/or engage in PVP is considered Multiboxing. Each case of Multiboxing will be judged individually and thoroughly. There are a few specific situations where you may have two characters in-game simultaneously:

Transferring items between accounts;
Using professions, as long as no farming or material gathering is involved;
Crafting, enchanting, banking and/or for trading purposes that does not include the Auction House.

Its self explanatory, you may not, pvp, quest, farm honour, or boost low lever characters through dungeons or zones.

You can, trade materials between characters for professions and banking instead of using the mail.

Pretty restrictive, but there you go.

You can't multibox here , the reason is that while on blizz you have to pay for each subscription to have the chars here you can make a hundred and multibox them all

My question is rather about what scope "here" is. Is it one realm? Or is it all realms?

Think you misread the OP post.

OP asks if it is allowed to play a character on the PvP server at the same time as playing one on the PvE server.
Since it's two different servers and they don't (and cannot) help each other in any way, I don't think it is a problem.

But if your setup would allow the 2 characters to simultaniously grind the same mobs/instance (would be hard because mobs patrol differently on both servers i suppose) or gather herb/mining nodes I think it could be considered multiboxing. So from the same IP (maybe) one could be mining veins, while another tries to mine the same location on the other server (where there might or might not be a mining node available)

What you're talking about sounds like some sort of automation which should be near impossible to perform.

I'm thinking more in the lines of doing some levling on the PvE server while queuing up for bgs/camping spawn points/trading in IF or ORG/etc etc on the PvP server.

Well to clarify its not impossible, multiboxers that use 3rd party programs are making it so their actions are duplicated across multiple clients. It would just be hard since theyre on different realms. That's against ToS for sure but what youre asking is a good question.

I believe, since it's 2 different unlinked realms, that should be possible and not against ToS.
It does not give you an unfair advantage, it's only a more efficient use of game time.
If they don't allow that, they should not allow you to go get a cup of coffee or pee break while queuing for a BG.

What constitutes "multiboxing" here seems pretty loose; I've had some RL friends take a good harassing from GMs claiming them to be multiboxers simply because they were using the follow function. I'd be careful, smells like itchy trigger finger on the ban button.

[BoxerBriefly]

Going out on a limb here, but, I wouldn't think that playing single accounts, at the same time, on two distinctly different realms could constitute multiboxing, since, in order to multibox, you need to have two accounts open, simultaneously, on a single realm.
