I was in the 10-19 pvp bracket today when i noticed this guy using multi boxing to control 3 warlocks. The would all do the same thing when one character did something, for example if one jumped they all jumped.
Well he was using this method to apply 3 corruptions and 3 curses of agony which would down the target extremely fast......
He was on my team but still, isn't this cheating?
No.
Blizzard have said that they don't consider multiboxing cheating, as they figure that the "difficulty" in controlling 3-5 characters outweights whatever advantage the controller may have in terms of extreme coordination. There was a bit of flak over it at level 70, when people started running into 5 elemental shamans in arenas, since they could more or less oneshot any target.

However, most of the time they're controlling those alternate characters through a series of macros; if you can fear them all, it breaks the follow macros and takes the player quite awhile to get pulled back together to coordinate their attacks again.

Umm...noob question....
What is multiboxing?
Having more than one account and playing them all at the same time. Used to be that most of them used more than one computer as well, hence the term. multi (more than one) box (colloquialism for computer).
