Currently I'm harvesting in Darkfall and grinding Aion.  Dual monitor, same computer.

Anyone else out there play more then one MMO at the same time?  If so, which ones?

Used to play eve while raiding wow.  After all, my mage just had to spam the fireball key.  Personally, I think that says a lot about wow, but I'll let everyone draw their own conclusions.

Playing: Guild Wars

Yes, I tend to do that a lot, especially since I tend to get burnt out rather easily. Hence, I would play one game, get burnt out, play another game, and then come back to the first game when I get burnt out with the second. Sometimes, if I'm bored enough, I'll even switch between the two on the same day.

At this moment, my main game is Guild Wars, and my switch would be EVE Online. I'm in my Guild Wars phrase at the moment, so yeah.

I'm playing EVE and Fallen Earth atm, but not at the same time. I probably could, I have a dual monitor setup and enough power to run them at full max. But meh.

 

I'm kinda burnt out on FE atm and have been for a few weeks though. I played 12-15hrs a day pretty much the full 2 weeks of pre-launch. Missed classes and didn't do homework.... blah blah blah. Then one night I got really drunk and passed out while playing. I haven't played since and really haven't been able to bring myself to play. It's a great game, I just totally burnt myself out.

 

Haven't been on vent either, I hope my clan isn't pissed off at me, lol.

Masscrafting (automated) in Dofus while taking care of my plants in GalaXseeds, then waiting for my plants to grow while harvesting in Dofus.

Also, not really dual MMO, but still multi-tasking: watching a series/film while harvesting in Dofus or playing mini-games in GalaXseeds.

I regularly play both WoW and EVE at the same time.

Just don't have enough time to be able to spend a couple hours a night in each.

Not really into dual boxing two different games, though on many occasions I've run multiple accounts of the same game including DAOC, Lineage 2, WOW and EVE.

Right now I run up to 3 EVE clients at at time which is pretty much the limit of my laptops processing power. (and my brain)

I wish there'd be even one decent MMORPG to play. I'm just so bored with the current state of games.

I have two accounts in Eve and dual monitors. Ones my miner, other my hauler/combat character. I'll usually have both characters on at the same time. But even though I have active a/c s for both Eve and Champions online I don't play both games at the same time.

Oh yeah, I completely forgot about that. I used to play those as well, but have since been addicted to Icy Tower.
