By calling it strawman argument you don't actually disprove it, please don't do that. Also, I only talk about the examples of automated software to show how vague the ToS actually are and that we can't tell what exactly would GGG consider unwanted kind of automation.

yes i'm sure GGG loves you altering their game to allow you to profit faster, and then you posting it for the general public to do as well.

you're the kind of person that ruins computer games. and only because you're lazy.

I think this kind of personal attacks based solely on your fantastical assumptions is quite irrelevant to the discussed topic.

personal attacks? you're so cute trying to manipulate the moderators into beating me into submission because i'm not praising you for allowing me to cheat.

you're giving people a numerous amount of macros so they can do things faster than the normal human can. how is that not against the ToS? how do you feel "safe" making this public?

There must be some misunderstanding going on here so excuse me for not answering certain parts of the post.

Would it be better to just use the controversial methods in private than posting them on forums where competent people can do something about it and clear things up if necessary?

nah man, publicly release game modifications. yeah... do that.

These don't modify the game at all. No where does the posted macro's inject or otherwise alter ggg's code. No more than clicking a key on the keyboard does.

If you think no one should be using anything but the basic 2 button mouse and 101 keyboard your being deluded.

except it's not just like clicking a key on a keyboard.

it's like making a script that allows you to do things with one keystroke that would normally take multiple keystrokes. it allows the user to accomplish tasks they normally wouldn't be able to, in a streamlined manner allowing them to do these things very quickly. and the OP is showing everyone how to do tons of different macros to automate nearly everything for them.

on top of that, this guy is releasing it to the public on GGG's official forum.


it's cheating. it's making something automated that isn't supposed to be. it's altering the game, just not directly.

So your saying I shouldn't use my keyboard software to make a key to say what I'm selling and I should type it out each and every time? The macro's he has posted do nothing but make something that can already be done easier. How is one button clicking identify scroll cheating? Should already be in the game. Logging out isn't a instant save either (it is cheap imo no idea why they don't just play default if they do that but whatever). It's a bit safer than alt-f4. Nothing he has posted is something that gives someone a advantage over another. Using macro's such as these is smart imo. It does exactly what you said and streamlines the unnecessary and annoying steps.

Btw, these macro's don't even come close to doing everything for them. Not once can he leave the computer and the macro's continue on without him. Watch some video's about how bots work and what not. That is automated. Each of these macro's require a key press for something to happen.

copying and pasting text into a text field isn't the same as having the game identify everything you need it to with one press of a key.

pressing F1 to open a menu isn't the same as typing out a script that makes a game do stuff on its own that it's not meant to do on its own.

it's a time sink, and it's a time sink for a reason.

What reason is it then?
