Multiple Accounts and PvP

[Koi.5731]

Genuinely asking cause i'm a noob,

I've recently  come into 5 accounts for GW2 for farming purposes, and i came upon a question I'd like an answer to;

 

"If i formed a PvP party of just my 5 accounts, and entered an unranked match purely to earn the 'play a ranked or unranked pvp match' daily achievement, can I be banned or punished in any way for that?"

 

Obviously I can't play all 5 accounts effectively, so I have no chance of winning; I get my achievement, enemy team gets a free win and I don't take anybody but myself down with me. I don't believe I'm breaking any ToS but I figured it would be best to ask first then try and solve the ban later. I'd appreciate if a Mod could weigh in on this as well please.

(No, I'm not botting or anything like that, I'm just a guy with 5 little screens in front of him and I can only click so much, so fast)

It's definitely  bannable. 

[DanSH.6143]

That's just botting with 0 effort.

This are the rules for multiboxing:

So yes, you can get banned, because it's not allowed in competitive environments like ranked/unranked PvP, Tournaments, WvW and also PvE activities (with the exception of privat custom arenas where where the hosts can allow it).

Once upon a time you could get banned for things in GW2.

 

Nowadays nothing happens no matter how many people report you, unless there is seriously 90% of the community sending in reports on you constantly all day long for at a least a month or more.

 

Go read the TOS yourself. Make of it what you want.

You mustn’t run multiple account at the same time in competitive environment.

[Crab Fear.1624]

as long as you don't post screenshots of cheaters or say cuss words, you be alright

You won't get banned. I've reported so many people for that, and they are all alive and well :).

[Khalisto.5780]

Ppl already do this in ATs, there is at least one afk team in every at, so i guess it doesnt ban

Not legal but it's not getting banned, tho I would Worry sometimes are anet workers looking into the forum and maybe they see this thread and maybe you can get a ban
