I use my G15 keyboard to run the scripts, if it matters
I think it doesn't matter *how* you run scripts, on the main CPU or keyboard microcontroller,, it is that you run scripts which results in unfair advantage. Keyboard strokes are also "clicks".

Kenneth Feld wrote:Wait - hold on, just thought of something -
G15 and related keyboards are now banned??? They allow one keyboard click to do F1-F8 simultaneously
Although grouping guns in game does the same thing - except smartbombs
Grouping guns does not do the same thing. Grouping guns is something you do *in game*. Pressing F1-F8 at same time via scripts outside the game is banned.
Using G15 is not banned. Using scripting features of the keyboard to broadcast multiple keystrokes is and has been for a while.

if so please send me the info i need to claim 150$ from ccp for a new keybord, or send me a gamer keyboard that does not have macro keys ccp, tyvm in advance.
You are already prohibited from using macros! If you can't constrain yourself from using macros in a game, perhaps your account should be banned sooner rather than later. And no, this has nothing to do with any keyboard.
This thread is actually quite unbelievable. Like a bunch of 12 years old are now playing Eve and their reading comprehension skills are no better than that of a 5 year old.

So NO multiboxing with ISboxer with the same ships in the same situation is NOT more profitable at least when it comes to mining.
You pay for ISboxer and you don't know that advantages? Shame on you to think the rest are that naive.
1. you have 10 chars, so you mine for 10 plexes, takes you 10 days 2. you want 10 plexes for your PvP alt for next month - you mine for 10 days. 3. you want to replace a dread - mine for 4 days.
Now, if you are solo,
1. you want a PLEX, you mine for 10 days 2. you want 10 plexes for your PvP alt for next month. You mine for 100 days? oops 3. you want to replace a dread. mine for 40 days?
The PLEX cost is a fixed cost. But the profit above those fixed costs is multiplied by number of characters. It's the same for mining, as missioning, as ratting as Incursions. This is also why majority (all?) of PvE ISboxers pay with PLEXes for their alts.
There is a saying - don't **** on someone and say it's raining.

http://community.eveonline.com/support/policies/eve-eula/
Paragraph 6, Subparagraph A(3)
Quote:You may not use your own or any third-party software, macros or other stored rapid keystrokes or other patterns of play that facilitate acquisition of items, currency, objects, character attributes, rank or status at an accelerated rate when compared with ordinary Game play. You may not rewrite or modify the user interface or otherwise manipulate data in any way to acquire items, currency, objects, character attributes or beneficial actions not actually acquired or achieved in the Game.
So if your keyboard macros are not for things like accessibility, they are most likely against EULA as-is. To put it in 5-year-old's terms, if you are not handicapped, such that you require macros to play the game, you are most likely using said macros to make your activity more efficient. Use of macros to increase efficiency of eve game play is specifically prohibited in the rules. |
