for the short time i played there, i had mq running most of the time. i needed it to bot my cleric ;)

but yeah, it's a very small server, everyone knows each other and you pretty much have to keep 100% quiet, plus there are like 5 gm's that might randomly watch you etc. overall is pretty easy to get caught if you are doing very unusual things (like warping), but if just to bot toons i don't think you'd get caught really easily

Thanks SlimFFY! I'll keep the rules in mind. I've also decided to make a list of things I will never do under any circumstances.
  • - Drive over the speed limit
    - Tell a lie
    - Smoke illicit substances
    - Have premarital sex
    - Shoplift
    - Sneak 2 copies of shrinkwrapped Windows 3.11 for Workgroups out of work storage area.
    - Walk around with aforementioned pilfered software snug securely between my scrotum and my legs while having a productivity meeting.
    - Sleep at work
    - Have more than one girlfriend at a time.
    - Hang up on aforementioned girlfriends.
    - Forget the customer is always right and point out why they are not.
    - Pirate software, or otherwise violate any License Agreement of any sort.
    - Impersonate a store, organization, or other official in order to obtain desired information.
    - Modify jury duty papers in order to have more paid time off from work.
:D

Must... resist... urge... to... bite... at... troll..... gah!

Anyway, at least it seems I am a good influence on someone. Never mind my alleged "6 box unattended autopulling macros for a week straight" - it would seem I have become quite the successful hippocrite.

Your sarcasm aside, I'll make sure to read the newspaper from time to time. Wouldn't be surprised if you get caught again for streaking in front of a police station. :lol:

It was the most efficient way I could think to deliver a dozen donuts while carrying a cup of coffee in each hand.
Ok, lets kill this thread if we're not going to talk about winter's roar. Its way off topic now.

Just thought some of you might wanna know

Winter's Roar is down indefinitely -- we have been served a Cease and Desist by Sony. There will be a redirect to the status of the legal process and our future plans here shortly.

You can also follow the progress in the IRC channel -- irc.eqemulator.net #wr
Sony dropped the axe :evil:

I didn't like anyone on that "staff". They were a bunch of Ego maniacs. I played for 2 days and the bullshit they kicked up was sickening, so I wont miss WR :cool:

Must have gotten just a little too big for SOE's comfort level.

They brought it on themselves. Every EQ board I'm a member of, one of the mods from WR spammed advertisment.

Well, that and the WTF! comics link that sent people there. 5/30 that went up... and one month later they get served. That's just about right if SOE acted almost immediately.

Reguardless of my biased feelings towards them it is kinda sad to see such hard work get kicked to the curb :?
