Poll to ask which client you use. In another thread, it was alluded to that 80% of players use manaplus....Lets see if this is the case...

Dude, you should make "Manaplus and manaplus-based clients" an option ;)

I would like to differentiate between manaplus and other variations that have crept up (like manabot). If there are specific examples, I'll add them to the list as they are mentioned in this thread....

We used to have statistics on the used clients from logging the user-agent strings on the update webserver. I am not sure if such statistics do still exist.

I'm assuming those can be spoofed....

1. Manabot is not a changed manaplus, but 0.29
2. There are some slightly modified manaplus variants, which are very popular with forum community, and they would not exist without manaplus :)
3. There is a big representation of newbies on forums, and most nebs use official.
4. Go to the town, rightclick-buy. If someone have no (even empty) shop, but the shop option with (?), it is someone who doesn't use manaplus. In this moment I haven't found one in the Hurns :) Well, none but Alan12.

Lol, who would spoof it months before the you made the poll? Some time-machine owning 4144 fans?

Derp, Anyone who plays with any regularity uses something other that the official client excepting under specific circumstances....

AFAIK, no well-know client besides manaplus has shop option... Unless you know one, of course.

Well, it seems from 4 random forums users 2 uses it... Unless you are playing on official, which is not the case, as you said, or you haven't voted, you must know this client and know something :3

as the creator of the poll, I have opted to refrain from posting ....That said, I stand by my earlier assertion: I know nothing!
