I'm emailing SE to find out their stance regarding a device or program that automates spamming the "enter" button as long as the user is there to hold down the key. Their rules and policy seem to be structured more against "absentee playing" and botting and I feel that as long as you are physically there at the computer holding down the button a turbo controller wouldn't be in violation of this.

To be honest, what's the difference to us if someone is at their computer spamming enter versus holding a button down on a turbo controller?

A bot on the other hand, is a whole different issue because it allows the user to be completely away from his PC and still gain from it. This defeats the spirit of fair play and shouldn't be allowed.
