Multiboxing is where you use two or more ships that are being used by ONE person on ether one or more computers with one or more instillations of Freelancer open. This is against the rules and thus isn't allowed because it can be abused to make stupid amounts of money and much more.

When you F1 in space, or disconnect in space, your ship stays there for some time. So, when you try to log in another ship from the same account, an error message pops up.
But when you log in another account before your previous ship disconnects, you will be kicked for multiboxing, since, in theory, you have two ships logged in at the same time.

That is 1 minute. You have to wait 1 minute after F1-ing or getting DC-d from the server before attempting to relog.

This pretty much explains it.
Never fly anything more than 1 account and 1 ship at a time. Bad things happen to Multi-boxers

I didn't knew MultiBoxing was even a thing, i thought Freelancer Installation was Broken *laughs*
But after all the replies, Someone might use Virtual Box to do that kind of thing.
