    Strange

    Twice now i've seen two different players repeating the exact same action for hours on end. One spamming a cd skill and the other mounting and remounting, I come home after hours and they're still doing it. Bots?!

    Nothing brings greater joy than mounting.

    ... over and over again ...


    On topic: Probably a bot program to keep them logged in. Though last I heard if you activate a crafting window it keeps you logged in anyways and that isn't bannable lol.

    They could just talk to an npc that has an npc dialogue box and leave it open. Seems a rather waste of effort to create a macro or use a bot just to stay logged in.

    Considering he is using probably an external program not allowed to buttonspam mount (or a macro) where the game was programmed to disconnect the player (there is no reason at all to remain logged nowadays), to be safe report it.

    Maybe Not a 3rd Party App?

    Some of the actions may be doable just by setting something on a mousekey? Just a thought.

    That is odd. Did you examine them?
