turbo controllers the new bot crafting?

[Fear]

For example you could make the default selection = cancel instead of accept.

Please no >.> this pissed me off on FFXI when putting things on the AH half the time you'd click no by mistake, sure it punishes botters but it also annoys us proper players.

Also if you're asking the game to craft, why the hell would you want the default option set to no?

LOLED!!!!!!

Yeah so the people who program and sell these bots have to change one line of code whereas everyone who crafts legitimately has to deal with that massive pain in the ass.

Wouldnt work, just need to add one line of code to the bot to move the selection up or down, it would stop turbo controlers, but that would solve nothing, RMT and your 24hrs/day crafters arent using celotape on thier turbo controlers, the problem is actual bots.

Turbo Controllers really does nothing but save you from manually clicking buttons/keys yourself, far from an automated process that the game is played for you while you're no where to be found, as in..bots like moetoy or w/e will run the synthesis, clear your inventories for you by running to NPC (or you station next to an NPC) and it'll play the game for you as long as you have adequate supply.

you seem to know a lot about this

Imo it's SE's fault for creating a system that lets you repeat the entire crafting process from start to finish by only pressing one button.

Need to change the UI, so you have to actually look at the screen to confirm something. For example you could make the default selection = cancel instead of accept.

SE did it. Default start was on the leve selection button. But people complained about it I think. Now the default start is on the recipe button

Indeed, initially it defaulted to Requested Items button but that really didn't make much sense so they changed it. Again that is not something that will affect actual bots in any way.

For the record, there's a very long thread in the Japanese forums here that talks about the use of turbo controllers, and it has been stated that using it WILL get you banned as the thread was created by the person who has been because of its very use.

I believe the SE policy is unattended gameplay. If you tape down a turbo controller to craft some 100~200 xp item or for an achievement and you're asleep or at work, you would be in violation of this policy. And deadly if caught-caught.

On the other end, where if I take a wireless controller downstairs to the stepping machine, pressing the confirm button manually for an hour, I would still be at risk, as I wouldn't be present to respond to any GMs or anyone that comes up and says, "I'm going to report you if you don't respond to me." And once banned, would have to go through SE customer service for a resolution.

Yeah I craft in the market wards alot so I can transfere items around between myself and retainers. I often get tells like "hello" and "are you there". I reply "hi, how can I help you" ...I get no reply, I ask again what they needed and I get "oh, sorry, was a mistype". Its amazing how everyone has the nerve to assume people are botting, because they areon a crafting rush, but the do not have the balls to say, "oh nothing, just seeing if you were there. Bunch of spinless morons, they seriously expect me to believe they mistyped my entire name when sending a tell.
