I multiboxed alot in FFXI, and I knew plenty of others that did the same. It was never much of an issue back then; it feels like drama now. On top of things, you generally would have to use *gasp* a 3rd party program to open other FFXI instances: the famous windower. And a lot of people used windower in general (not just for multiboxing purposes); it's funny now seeing people preach about 3rd party programs when it's convenient.

I know people wonder why I multibox: I get asked all the time. I have plenty of reasons for multiboxing; in short, I find it rather enjoyable. I don't want to bore you with a long list of reasons of why I do it; I simply like to multitask. To me, multitasking is the same as watching youtube and television while playing. And in a practical sense, it's like cooking 3 different dishes at the same time.
