Plex prices dropping from lack of ISBoxing = more people buying plex to MCT and other things. Plex consumption will likely not change very much. Plex prices in game may drop however. But the in game price doesn't have a direct effect on CCP's wallet, only an indirect effect, and we don't know how the supply of plex has changed as prices increased. Or how much was simply due to manipulation. |

Macro's are already banned as botting and have been since EVE started I believe. Catching simple short macro's is obviously a fairly hard job for CCP to do, but it doesn't change it being banned already. |

Are keyboards like razer and g15, with the inbuilt functions allowed?
You know the ones that you can make so if you press 1 button it could say...spam f1-f8 for a single client
You know...the ones that have the negative stigma
....the one that starts with Mah and ends in Crow?
Edit : no BS where it mines for 23 hours or anything, the kind of thing I could still do raking my hand across the keyboard, headbashing it or spamming it really fast Prob not no as its possible to do F1-F8 by any abled bodied person already. Its were you program it to do something allot more complicated than activating all your guns or something (you can all ready do with with one key press anyway in-game with stacked guns.) EULA says it's illegal. However CCP have indicated they aren't likely to ban you if it's just 'press one button, activate all hardeners at once'. Even though it violates the EULA as written. Since they are more concerned about more serious behaviour.
But, since it violates the EULA as written CCP can easily change that at their discretion if they find it is causing detection overlaps with ISBoxing and Botting. Partly why I imagine this change is being made is because it will also make it easier to detect Bots in operation.
And Nolak, you are just making yourself look very very sad with your constant arguing in circles, splitting hairs and other pedantic arguments here. Really, we got your point 40 pages ago, it's time to just let it go. |

Okay, technically it is a EULA violation, but you can do the same since you'll have 2 maybe 3 hardeners...anybody with 2 hands can turn them all on at the same time....without violating the EULA...unless having 8 fingers, 2 thumbs, 2 hands, etc. is a EULA violation....which I doubt.
Lets not take things to the absurd in an attempt to justify automation that actually does use a 3rd party software.
Sure, this is likely why CCP have indicated why they aren't going to ban for that. Like I said. But it doesn't make it 'legal'. It simply makes it overlooked. Which means it can't be used as an excuse to then build up to worse forms of automation by saying 'well if that's legal why isn't this'. And makes it clear that Macro's aren't permitted. |

Nolak Ataru wrote: From what I can tell, you're confused about what macros are and are simply repeating the "hurr it's a bot" propaganda. A macro can be a simple string of keypresses (F1-F8), and that is not against the EULA. When a macro or program continue to do something like mine, jettison, and mine again without player input, that's breaking the EULA.
Actually even the simple string of keypresses is against the EULA Nolak, the EULA is very clear. What CCP have said is that they won't prosecute the very simple ones that simply press F1-F8 in a row under normal circumstances.
But they are against the EULA so CCP could decide to change that at any time without having to change the EULA. |
