I am a "Hacker" ;-)

Post by Schorhr »

Well, I was standing in the Bat-Cave, and someone I do not want to name told me I was a hacker, since I would not move nor talk a lot, and not pick up items nearby some beaten bats dropped in some battle.

Well of course not! I work on the computer, and have Mana in the background. Is that illegal? I sometimes switch tasks to press ctrl and walk to another bat or so, then continue working; if I have more time I go work on some quests or help others do so (and those can tell I do play a lot activly, but I see lots of others sit arround doing nothing).
I reached lvl 50 now, but not because of a few bats i'm sure, but rather because I helped several players with keys, present boxes and red stingers.

Am I doing anything wrong?
Its not like I am using a modified client or scripts to automaticly walk arround solving quests or collecting keys from spiders.
And yes, I do not talk to some people anymore after beeing insulted or if they steal stuff from my battles. Also, my french is very poor, and after I fail to communicate with someone and they still write "Buy sword? buy sword?" (or the same thing in french...) I give up.

I post this because the person accusing me wants to report me for standing arround and ignoring him in the game.
I thought if I ask first, I might get a chance to explain myself and change any behavior that might be wrong.
Be asured, if I knew how to make a BOT or something like that, I'dd implement a Chat-Robot such as Ally, and do lots of random walking arround to seem more non-zombie-like ;-)

Simple answer: no

Are you sure it was French and not Brazilian?

Oh, and always ignore people called "matt", "[m]att" or "m[a]tt".

Im like that too.I play for a while then I take a break to surf the net, download something or check a forum. :)
I cant be bothered to close and open TMW everytime so it just runs in the background.
This is one of the reasons I want a AFK function.How's it going with that anyway?

I just know there are a lot more Brazilian people in TMW then French people... plus I know French people are more likely to understand English then people from Brazil. I didn't mean to discriminate or hurt anyone, it was just what I thought I could say with the experience and knowledge I believed to have.

Yeah, I met a lot of people from Brazil as well, but lots of french too.
Either way, there are a lot of young players which have little english skills.
Nice to be so international :-) I just wish my language skills would be better.
-Have a nice day!

Your language skills are fine.Im not very good myself and a lot of people here speak/write english as a second language.Me included.

This thing we have with brazilians isnt bad really.It's more of a joke.Suddenly a lot of brazilians joined TMW and there was a flood of new players who naturally had a lot of questions.In a language we didnt understand.So there was a lot of confusion. :roll: :)

I think the flood had its bright moments so it wasnt all bad.
But you already know my opinion about the ingame language thing. :)
