Wow

there are 3 hard working lumber/miners working on the far reaches on the Dry Highlands malas

tirelessly working long hours to get their items

last 3 houses on the SE coast, a villa 18x18 plot and a small plot, tucked ruight out of the way, guessing to avoid detection

all the telltales are there

heavy chests on steps
constant recalling
dumping blackrock outside
piles of wood dropping to ground only to disappear after they have recalled away

some trying to hide to avoid paging


of course they are not scripting


Cal your threat of detection is either NOT scary, or players are STILL stockpiling with little fear

You can play games - block a recall spot, move after 5 minutes and shazam - a lumberjack appears :D

I believe this would fall under that category untill descriptions are removed =S

please show me where it is a personal attack?

i have named nobody here

not your char by any chance though, usually the case when people jump on the script defender bandwagon, or maybe a friend of yours?



i have mearly acknowledged that there are some mule grafting longs hours, more hours than an attended HUMAN can do and also flawlessly following a set pattern, oh and all three diff chars following the same pattern

so what is happening here

1. human controlling 3 accts in perfect order for hours......nope
2. 3 dif players by chance doing the same thing as each other........nope
3. following instructions on an illegal script site, maybe, just maybe


it is all to common now and Europa it is happening all over the shard, players all following the SAME pattern, like clockwork, NO human can be THAT perfect, not all the time, and certainly NOT 20 plus that i have witnessed recently

and sure enough the GM'S agree as many DO seem to disappear with their 1million stone chests on the steps after they have been reported


sadly it seems the thread of 3rd party detection is falling on DEAF ears

amazing also how many "new" players are popping up doing the same thing aswell, even with weapon skill now to fight of the low end spawn that is around the far away little houses that they live in

how very suspect it all is :)

yep ty got the eggs only 9 to get now:)

I don't know why i post about scripters, seems that there are only a handful of players that have a problem with it now days :(

i think it is actually worse than ever, maybe it is because players are stockpiling before action is taken, maybe using temp accts so they cannot be traced back to the "main" accts

sadly i think it is too serious to control, but i did read a commnet on uhall which i liked, that was, the client crashes when it detects a 3rd party program running, so players don't get banned but they WILL have to play properly:)

What I do is quietly page on any I see and leave it to the GMs. I wouldn't post on forums in case said scripter saw my post and attended the next time a GM came...

Any bots the GMs leave will be good indicators of when the cheat detection code has been set to do more than just watch the bots.

You're right. I'd say the rules are conflicting when
you're not allowed to say who's scripting but you're
allowed to give descriptions to the persons home,
in essence giving the persons name.

I don't know who it was as I didn't bother checking
it out, though I do not appreciate what you are
insinuating. Let's keep it civil.
My oppinion on the matter is that we need them.
Not everyone has a trillion gold in the bank to afford
resources so the scripters are keeping prices down
so that us "normal" people can afford to play.
Already noone has ingots in stock.

So if you don't like it, take it up with EA like the mods suggest.

Nice poem, bro.

We don't need them. Only lazy ebayers do.

no names again, but BANG TO RIGHTS

if this chap was attended how come in the 20 or so mins it takes to page with 2 accts take a piccy and go to photobucket/photoshop to edit etc and post, that he is still standing there spamming recall


busted!

and we DO NOT need them

i was looking for idocs and found this person recalling again, i figured i would track them, and luckily they were within range, so i had a closer look that the chest and logged second acct and decided to look, using automap i could see that there were mines west, as per tracking arrow, took a few mins to find and there you go

and i did all this by playing the GAME not using 3rd party progams, so you can do so much without help


if you need ore go mine it legally

like i say

we do NOT need these people while i was looking for idocs i found another 5 small houses tucked away, in the middle of nowhere with VERY heavy lumber or ore chests, usually 2/3 packs a recycle bin, oh and a pile of blackrock on the ground

how can everyone be doing the same thing WITHOUT instructions from the illegal sites?

If you need ingots, go mine the ore and make in ingots. its because players like you (if you indeed do as you mention here) are too lazy to go and get them, its because of you that there are scripters at all, if YOU did not buy and got the ore yourself, they would be out of business, and also its FREE if you go get the ore yourself so who need trillions

so IF you want to make an arguement to defend scripters as saviours, pls try harder

oh, and I am NORMAL (sometimes) and i dont buy form scripters, i got mine my own, and after 5 years of playing, i have enough to keep me going, and i have time to enjoy others aspects of the game

your arguement is flawed i am happy to say (civillay)

thank you for posting, as we all know scripting does tend to get heated, however, I am not motivated by, i told you so etc, just wanted to highlight that either:-
1. the Dev's are NOT doing anything after all. The chars i am looking at now, are veteran players, NOT temp disposable accts

2 The threat of action does not scare people

sadly i see more little houses popping up now than before the detection software was mentioned by the dev team

maybe some action is needed NOW to at least get people thinking what if...........
