[in-game] I think I saw asomething like cheating

Post by AKEJlJlA »

Somebody played by two characters (maybe more - ?) simultaneously, and said me that is no rule about it.
Screenshots are below. Sorry for bad English.

As he long as she wasn't using a computer program to control all the characters at once, it's not against the rules. Having multiple clients open and switching between them is perfectly legal.

He doesn't switch between clients, he played one character, and another just followed him and repeat actions (attack, etc...). Look chat window in 3rd screenshot.

Currently there is no rule against character automation as long as you are at the keyboard and you are able to answer a GM who is talking to any one of your characters.

When you would like to start a discussion about whether or not there should be a rule against this please do so in the feedback forum.

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.
