Stop the WoWificaton (ui mods)

Just like you can spin my post however you see fit for your knee-jerk reaction to skimming it.

How can SE know people are running addons without:

A) User speaking about using the addon in chat.
B) Running a scanner, which is a questionable move.
C) The addon gives a clear advantage, thus being detectable by other players and actions in the game. For instance: parser just reads game data, so it does not give any advantage in the moment to the player. It cannot be used to leverage a win over another player who is not using it. This, versus a script that automates your character performance, like how bots operate.

Repeating it clearly in a little list just so I am not misinterpreted again. Love and light.

People stream daily on twitch and youtube with these addons. All they have to do is tune in and they will see them. I am sure they are already 100% aware as they have banned people as a result. Keep using your addons. I hope you get the ban you deserve.

That is literally like what 0.1% of the people who may be using an addon. Yeah that's def going to solve the problem.

If they start banning these people you will see things clean up very quickly. Fear works wonders.

If the way they're "finding" these people is through streams it's not going to scare the rest because SE wont have a way to track who uses the addons unless they start scanning peoples computers, which they already said they'd never do. So no, no one is going to get scared into getting rid of addons.

The number is much higher than that.

Never going to happen.

Cute.

Anyway, still not answering my post about what this would look like for the other 99.99% of players. You seem a bit scuffed about all this, maybe drink some water and get back to me when you want to discuss reasonable solutions to how SE can address 3rd party software in a way that satisfies the issues I listed, and does not leave us with "The player had to admit to it in game chat and the program gave clear and measurable advantage". Love and light.
