Dual-Boxing

Dual-boxing is a type of Multiboxing – logging into a VR system as multiple separate avatars, characters, or accounts. Specifically, dual-boxing means the user is simultaneously controlling two avatars. They have encapsulated themselves inside two separate boxes as it were, with each box being one of the avatars. Two-Boxing is another name for Dual-Boxing that is often used.

As avatars become increasingly immersive, so multi-boxing becomes harder and harder to pull off, as a single user's concentration is at all times, split between two or more different points of view.
