STUPID ME

Post by kharmakazy » Tue Nov 26, 2002 2:20 pm

I feel so very stupid... i did a /report on a guy and forgot mq was running and i had just done a /who...

Im thinking perhaps the gm might be curious as to why i have the name race level and loc for every person in the zone...

thats gotta be a ban...

While I don't agree with people that abuse MQ I would "NEVER EVER" turn in someone for doing it. Let them get cought all by them selfs and lose an account they worked so hard for.

You misunderstand I turned in the guy for harrasing me but forgot **I WAS USING MACROQUEST** and /reported lines containing incriminating evidence...

Yes I did, sorry.. I guess your only hope is that the extended MQ /Who dosn't show up in the /report then.

I'm sure Plazmic, amadmonk, deathspiral or Rizwank would know for sure you might try PMing them.

According to Domo, it's the last 10 lines of chat, so the MQ version of who would show up

could be that what is shown in your chat box is just the normal EQ commands and chat that shows up during gameplay. I would think that MQ commands only show up on YOUR box, and no-where else. While this is a risky thing that you did, you may have just verified that they cant see MQ commands. YAY!!.... on the other hand..... maybe they just want us to think that :P

/reports are not read unless you also petition, so you should be fine.

/report sends the last 10 lines of all chat windows (in the new UI), and since it's client-side, it may grab them out of the chat buffer... in which case the MQ lines would show up.

Did you mention in the /petition that you also sent (or were going to send) a /report? Did you tell the guide that answered you that you did or were going to send a /report? If not, then the report may never be looked at.
