About macroing

[killer456]

I read in other post that if u use macro for lvl and stay afk u will be banned.My question is how this gonna work? gms are going to appear in ramdomly spot and time and will tell "hi", if u dun answer u got banned?And how the hell Gms can be sure if ppl are afk or not?(ez answer,they cant). So if u have lucky that Gm not visitate ur party macro u can be afk macroing and get lvls with no problem but if ure unlucky or if u re in a guild that Gms look more carefully for example u get ban.Not to mention that u can make a macro that says hi and if u dun wanna asnwer?if u are with chat off and couldnt see the question.
My point is ,and i wan some opinions and arguments,Gms should allow macro if they cant be sure that ppl are really afk macroing and if they cant be looking equal in all server any time.My opinion is if GMs want to stop macro they have to find a way to prevent the use of this programs or make it useless(like they did with jobs).Remembering that ppl still can pking macroers since the most maps u can use Pk mode, and macro ISNT LIKE HACK.And the last server i played was my. and i never used a macro and im not for it.
Wat u guys think about that?
and plz dun say things like"Gms will just know" cuz sentences like that are extremely dangeorous and before any1 says if u dun wan play this server jus dun play i will antecipate th answer, Yes i wan play in this server and if i bother to make post to try to find a better solution thats why i really have interest in server.

They need to make it to where if you stand in the same cord longer then 5 mins you are logged out.

No we dont need macro its lazy and we are going to be big little girls and boys on this server.

They're making monsters have random spawns (don't know if its all), so you can't line without the risk of dying.

Nice post. I'm also interested in understanding how GMs can detect it.

why not?
Maybe then people will stop having more then one character in wars or have extra characters hidden for zerk or res. It would actually make players who play priests more invaluable.

Macros can be made so the person moves back and forth, and repeats. The 5 minute rule is bad for obvious reasons >.<.

and what about the setups in places like vd... oretty impossible to level running around in there if u ask me

The set ups no longer work as random mobs will come at you anyways. And i'm not saying you have to sprint a mile i'm saying you have to take 1 step.

Maybe they should make a message pop up on peoples chat box every 5 mins that says If you are active please type the fallowing code. FF689 Then you cant fake or macro for a random code. The system is there for joining guilds they would just need to tweak it.

Saw it already in some mmos (for example Angels Online )... it does a great job as one of the anti afk systems ^^ .. but 5 min is too often anyway... i would say it has to be random between 15-30min(or even longer) cause it will get annoying to write code every 5min when you are in battle (pve or pvp).... oh and 1 more thing ... you have 3min to write the code , if you dont then you get some kind of penality(in case of Angels Online its going to jail but here i think it has to be something else because you just could relog in that case) ;
-your account banned for 1 day
-only disconnected
-something else ;p
