Better safe then sorry - Guild Wars Forums

OK I want to play GW with both my accounts cause my brother has a sin and i have no more room for other chars. Can someone verify the link that I am about to download (i know its stupid, but I do not wanna get hacked) http://www.divingduck.de/modgwx2.htm. If there is a better place please give me that link (or a more simple version).

Second, what kind of computing power will I need to run both simultaneously? I don't have great internet connection, comcast wireless >_>. I would like to be able to trade myself the money made from sin farming.

Running GW with minimal gfx specs, in small windows, can reduce the computing power very, very much.

I am able to run about 20 clients at a time on a five year old computer.

Wireless Internet shouldn't be much of a problem for running two clients at a time, although you may end up with some visual errors. You should definitely be able to trade yourself the money without much of a problem.

my confusion should be obvious, but, I have to ask... are you the guild leader of your own guild...lol

sorry, you don't need to respond. I just had no idea that anyone would run 20 instances at once.

Why would you possibly need to run that many clients?
Sounds like a farm bot sweatshop.

OT: I run 2 clients when I am working on my legendary defender title. No need to hire a gate monkey! As stated above, if you turn the graphics down at least on the secondary client and run both in window mode you should be fine. I find that minimizing the second client when I am not using it seems to help also.

Ah, so you would rather be safe THAN sorry. As in, taking precautions to prevent feeling remorse for some action/inaction. Your title suggests that first, you'd like to take precautions and THEN feel remorse for doing so. A prime example of how a misplaced "E" can "F" up the whole meaning of your message which should have read "Better safe than sorry." Should your title's advice hold true, you may care to remember this rule: THEN indicates time(as in: now and then), THAN indicates quantity (as in: more than enough). Pet peeve of mine...sorry. Carry on...

EDIT: Oh, yeah...the easiest way to get hacked is to use a site that is not specifically sanctioned by the manufacturer...Even if people endorse it, you take a risk. I'd say what you're doing is probably not a good idea. When in doubt, don't click the shiny red button.

EDIT: and AAAAAAARG, ye scurvey dog (it's talk like a pirate day).
