"Player follow" will get you banned
It seems that "follow mode" is considered botting and will get you banned.
No more following stacks in the gy!!
I think the next rules should be like this:
1."If you kill 20 monsters and don't say a word you are a bot and therefore you must be banned"
2."If your name does not make any sense, you are clearly a botting tool and should be banned"
3."If you play more than 3 hours without logging off you are a bot and should be banned"

Re: "Player follow" will get you banned
Acctually this is true, the Feature "Auto Follow" on manaplus or any client is illegal now Due to major stacks in the graveyard.
Sad but true.

It follows another char and attacks the same target they attack. It was very useful if you had many chars because you could level all of them.altbdoor wrote:i never used different clients and stuff... what does this auto follow do that lead to its banning? :/ care to inform newbies here?
I have no idea why this would lead into a ban. I don't think Platyna came with this idea and I fear I know who is behind this.
I think now botters will still use the bot client BUT won't use it's follow feature.
So all this stupid rule does is stop bot stacks and not botting itself.

Re: "Player follow" will get you banned
So now a GM would take a screeny and say: "Player X was banned for following"
How can you tell someone is following someone else from a screeny?
I think in this case a movie clip would prove a player was following. If this doesn't happen then they can ban anyone and blame it on "following".

Re: "Player follow" will get you banned
that's definitely not really explaining things... you can have a bot check area to check for bot behaviour, but case of "following"... in my opinion, unless GM witnesses the "following", there's nothing much that they can do, right?DefinitelyNOTMrWho wrote:So now a GM would take a screeny and say: "Player X was banned for following"

you have a point there. but i don't think anyone would go the distance to record a video...DefinitelyNOTMrWho wrote:I think in this case a movie clip would prove a player was following.
Re: "Player follow" will get you banned
I think the rule isn't made to prevent botting, but to prevent certain people make 10-noob mantrains running around one person to torment her and piss GM-s off.
I think it pisses off GM-s and make them feel powerless more than stack botting.
Thank you, certain people!
Proving someone's following is impossible though.
