Yeah, those people who use macros wont get carpel tunnel, **** THEM!

I don't think macros fall under "exploits" . I may be wrong, but exploits are generally bugs like parrot double drops. The lag was the bug, using a buff/depo twice is the exploitation of that bug.

"Utilizing or advertising game hacks, cheats, or bots will result in a permanent ban.
There is very little room for negotiation; there is a zero tolerance policy for any type of MACRO, script, bot or other program that can change the way the game interface works."- Susu

If we assume that "change the way the game interface works" refers to how we, the player interface with the game (which I do) that pretty much covers it.
The answer is that mouse recorders are a bannable offence.

Since we have that out of the way then, how about an official BB response/plan of action to correct the games interface deficiencies that are causing people to use macros?

one thing at a time bud lets get the game working right first.....then we can add to the wish lists

Not sure if he was around for the old trade system and the 400 limit ... I think everybody was using scripts at that point.

Eventually they fixed it. Mail system is a work in progress, I guess. Barracks ought to be next.

I never had to use a script for 400 Limit trade. Didn't really have too.

Neither did I.

im sure if they went back to the 400 limit trade, you guys would use scripts. 400, 4000, 40k and even some cases of 400k units of a resource are not significant at all. But ofcourse if you dont trade then u wouldnt have to worry, but back then, 400 of a resource was way way way more significant to us then it is now. Personally if the trade system went back to 400 units max per trade, i would definitely use macro or just quit, u think that making 25 troops/buffs per cycle is bad- imagine buying or selling one million of just one resource, that is a total of 2.5k trades you would have to send....

that's why they slipped in that 19 or 20 bug in there to throw the bots off
