Is this a bot program at work or an honest mistake?

Zaneluke · 10-11-2007, 06:44 AM

OK was a nice sat am while the server was pretty quiet.

If you see this in guild chat, while said toon is in a tradeskill instance. is it

A- opps my cat was walking on my special macro keyboard?
B- Someone crafting with a bot program?
c- Nothing special at all.
d- None of the above

and yes i do have more screen shots that will only be posted based on the result of the poll. I think 30 at last count.

and

Yes, person was kicked from guild.
But, was re invited last night. I obviously had an issue with it so i am going to let the eq2 flames community make the call.

I would say it's an animal or a child. I would think it would be a weak program to only hit 1's.

Said keyboard/joystick is a Nostromo that was stepped on by a cat.

Well, from crafting programs the first hit key is 1 for the recipe, usually does this once only though. So maybe at the beginning of his program it fucked up? Dunno, if it was that he wouldn't come out to say it.

Btw, just because one has knowledge of programs doesn't mean they use them. That was for any smart ass remarks someone might be thinking to post after reading what I said.

ok ok ill give you more info.
Here are two screen shots.

#1 is of person getting kicked from guild.
then they remove thier other two characters right?
Odd if they "were at work" or "at a fair" as i was told.
Look down towards the bottom
O O O O O oh my did he just level his provisioner?
Toon was not afk toon was running a bot program, afk people dont level a tradeskill.

and i thank the leader who kicked him
I think i got a rather odd response though IMHO.

People, I have been playing since launch. I have been in quite a few guilds.
Absolution. Horde pre desert flames as an officer.
Vis nova, masters house and blind guardians.

And this last one

Champions of Norrath.

Every single guild had some rock solid great people in them. And yes i could have controlled my temper better on more than one occasion.

But i will always hate people who use automated programs and.... a provisioner?? Zaneluke is a level 70 provie who hates unfair competition.

and yes i have more screens and i promise you they get better and better ending with the letter i got from teh guild leader this morning before work.

Depends, you can just spam 1 and craft too you know!

sorry could not edit here is the screen so you do not have to cut and paste.

Simonsays · 10-11-2007, 12:48 PM

Looks to often and not random enough to be a cat on a keybd... I know, i have 2 of them pests.

Exact same sequence of 1's everytime makes it look like a program.

ever talk to the guy? most people that macro you can talk to, and most of them will just admit to it. unless its a straight up bot in your guild, than you should be able to tell just from talking to him. but guild be a macro, coulda goofed before he left and left off in his chat window so instead of using a skill, its just going in chat. and like a cat is just gonna pass out on the 1 key and hit enter a few times?

yes i have the in guild conversation from last night after he was invited back in to the guild.

I wanted to get a good poll going before i post those screen shots. Because my confromtation in guild with him was due to the above info I had.

It was after my conversation with him in guild chat and all the tells i got to leave him alone i left guild with all three of my characters.

I was not until the compleatly retarded mail i got from the guild leader this morning that I made the choice to come here and get a "public opinion" poll. Until this morning i was just going to chalk it up to a bad 1 month experience in guild.
