Banned my 4shaman.

First, (to everyone) I just don't understand how hard it is to not mention specific bots by name. People are posting names of bots like it's pertinent information when it isn't. It's always been a rule on this site to keep the names of bots off of this forum and that rule hasn't changed. It's honestly becoming tiresome continuously having to edit out the names of bots in other peoples' posts and I'm just going to start completely deleting entire posts because people can't follow the rules.

EDIT: Apparently Khatovar was reading my mind. o.O


Second, (to Shodokan) the bots in question that were mostly targeted in this banwave read the game's memory and unlock Lua code that Blizzard has specifically and purposely protected -- All of which ISBoxer has absolutely nothing to do with, so you can stop your comparison right there. Programs like HotKeyNet and AutoHotKey have much more "functionality" in this department than ISBoxer ever has, but both of those programs are viewed as legitimate multiboxing programs on this forum.

Actually it did not unlock LUA code after the second iteration to my knowledge, there was an original banwave for it in 2010 which did that after which it moved to memory reading and external if/then statement coding.

I don't use AHK or HKN so I only draw comparisons to how i have seen people set things up and how people have helped others set things up.

SOMETHING is setting off a false positive, because these bans were NOT done by gms watching accounts/players they were automated bans. My bet with ebony's case is that a GM was making sure that one didn't fall through the cracks that showed similarities to functionality it provided after she was possibly reported. (I've also been contacted by gms in the past two days while leveling new dks and know i've been reported multiple times in the past week while leveling characters up.). Hell I didn't even know there was a banwave for those bots until i read that people got banned for boxing apparently here.

I love ISBoxer and what it has allowed me to do but I'm not going to sit here and say that there is absolutely zero similarities between the bot's functionality and that of ISBoxer's (And AHK/HKN for that matter now that you mention it).

ISBoxer is NOT a bot, we all know this... but is auto-reconfiguration of buttons pressed in an order via a single button(step 1: 1, step 2:2, step 3:3 all while pressing 1) really not the least bit of the grey area we all knew it was from the beginning? I mean we have had that discussion here before no?

Just some food for thought and nothing more.
