Unethical Gameplay?

[WOWBOX40]

Im actually pretty good at using the auctionhouse and that was my main place to farm gold: buy low and resell for higher.

I then started on more advanced studies at university. I also work full time, 37.5 hours a week.

I do want to also carry on to play wow and also earn gold though at the same time. I dont have time to farm for 3 hours, then go do schoolwork for 3 hours..

I found that farming mobs that respawn quickly can be a ok way to earn some gold, casually pressing keys, while i read books or relax watching news or even a movie.

In order for my body/back to cope sitting still for hours i very much prefere my sofa or bed. So i bring my keyboard with me, either wired thru a 10 meter extensioncable i got or thru a wireless keyboard.

Ive never had any issues with GMs ingame. I may have been very lucky it seems. I therefore recently added another monitor and i duplicated the signal from my mains screen into it, so i can see whats going on when im sitting in the sofa.

Ive also spoken to a GM and told them that if they need to talk to me, to only contact me thru my mains account name/game nr: reason being that the other windows are so tiny, i wont be able to notice the popup "a gamemaster wants to talk to you" prompt.

I think this "semi / away from monitor" method should be allowed, cause im not using any illigal 3rd party software and actions arent spammed when i press and hold down a key. Only the initial action when i press down the key, thats it.

They are able to scan my pc at any time. They can track my keypresses down to the millisec and, i assume, also track how long it is between keypresses and probably analyze a lot of things. They should be able to see that im not doing anything illigal. There should therefore not be needed for them to "bot check" me?.



Though if this gets illigal, i will then stop, create a lot of bankalts on lots of servers, then setup TSM sniper on all of them. Then create a fixed plate for my mouse, so that the broadcasted mousecursor doesnt move from the buyout button, and then casually "roll" the scrollwheel to buy very good deals from my bed/sofa, instead of killing mobs. "But... this is probably not allowed either then".


If Blizzard want to remove this semi / away method, they could maybe implement a policy that states something like..."if we contact you ingame, you have XX minutes to respond. If we notice actions are still being done and you dont respond after the time expire, you risk getting banned".

Sidenote:
awhile back they nerfed a farming spot to the ground..but like "100 yards" away there was several other spots with the same exact respawn / loot. Those didnt get nerfed. /mind blown.
