Will i get banned if i use Auto-clicker? - Guild Wars Forums

zintar · Dec 22, 2008, 06:06 PM // 18:06

ive got 8800 minutes of alcohol to consume(lvl 1 only), but i do not want to spend it in real life too(hate grinding titles) so ive decided to google something like an auto-clicker. found one, downloaded it, works perfect, clicks every 1 minute, everything nice

.

My question is: Will i get banned if i use Auto-clicker?

Toutatis · Dec 22, 2008, 06:47 PM // 18:47

An auto-clicker is a program that automates aspects of gameplay. The EULA defines this as a bot, and disallows it. If you are caught using this auto-clicker, ANet reserves the right to ban your game account permanently and without notice.

My opinion? Not worth the risk.

Anet has the right to ban you for anything and nothing.

I wouldn't risk it.

Suck it up. I am at 6.7K drunkard points and I have been working on it slowly for quite some time. I just drink whenever I am playing PvE. It is a grind title and if you don't want to grind it then don't get it.

Then go for an eaiser title, durr.

Lord Of Blame · Dec 22, 2008, 07:16 PM // 19:16

Many people have done this. It's probably not something that would raise alot of attention, but I don't work for Anet and can't say for sure. Sounds risky to me. This is one title I will never do for the exact same reason, 10000 min of clicking every minute would suck.

riktw · Dec 22, 2008, 07:41 PM // 19:41

i need to be drunk to click to get druk i guess.
go for sweet tooth, you can just click and you dont have to wait 1 min.
and get sweet tototh in GW and drunkard in real life

shoyon456 · Dec 22, 2008, 07:49 PM // 19:49

I'm in a similar situation at the moment, i just bought the whole drunkard title in spiked eggnogs, but i have to consume all of it. I know anet can ban for it, and it's not like I can just avoid this title, as I HOPE to get GWAMM. I just got a 3 min timer applet from one of the nice ppl here on guru that beeps every 3 mins, and i just take another spiked eggnog. I know the timer is not against the eula, because it does not interact with the game in any way.

In fact, im pretty sure the guy who sold me the alc was hinting at giving me an auto clicker (he asked if i had a chat service like xfire, and said he had something to get it done while i was sleeping). Apparently he used one.

In my opinion, at 23 maxed titles, a few fow sets, chaos gloves, etc..., and a prior offense on my account (cursed out some idiot), I wouldn't risk it. Besides, over the winter break, if i use my timer and just hang around my laptop alot, I should get about 3/4 of the way there :*(

snaek · Dec 22, 2008, 08:14 PM // 20:14

u can
but imo u most likely wont
unless someone reports u

but aksing (telling) ppl bout it here on guru will more likely get u reported

personally im not teh type to snitch...especially when it comes to sumptin harmless like this
hfff was waaay more harmful because its almost the same as bot farming for gold

Golestandt · Dec 22, 2008, 08:17 PM // 20:17

Does it make a difference if you are at the computer at the same time and not afking?

I remember reading that thread, but can't find it now, link would be awesome :]

dilan155 · Dec 22, 2008, 08:21 PM // 20:21

yep so you should uninstall it now before you get n more trouble.

human input may interfere wit the automated input

however, in this case, a user may chat in gw while the auto-clicker runs
tho he may not alt+tab to different programs for too long

this will very likely mask the bot-like actions of the logs and may reduce the risk of getting banned

Coney · Dec 22, 2008, 08:25 PM // 20:25

I heard there's a way to drink the 5-pointers and then zone/rezone and get all 3 points pretty much instantly.

I once left town while drinking (forgot I was at 5 singles), and in the next town I got 3 points.

So it's possible to speed it up this way - look for infos, it's out there somewhere...

MercenaryKnight · Dec 22, 2008, 08:47 PM // 20:47

We don't believe the method works any more now that a.net has fixed a "bug". I really wish they'd make drunkard like sweet tooth, drink x levels of drunkard to achieve title. Make it the exact same number as 10k minutes but just let us click like sweet tooth title. Would be easy to code and transfer x number of minutes as x alcohol levels.

snaek · Dec 22, 2008, 08:48 PM // 20:48

@coney
i believe that glitch was fixed in the big skills update of this month
but i could be wrong

lilraceangel3 · Dec 22, 2008, 09:16 PM // 21:16

it was fixed. you could drink and zone then drink again, but since the update you need to wait the whole time.

exploiter · Dec 22, 2008, 09:54 PM // 21:54

well i didnt get banned...maybe just luck

^fixed Announcing it on a forum devs actually read(even if not often) is also not your brightest move.

Yes, but then, this title isn't meant for them.

I actually got that glitch by accident, today. Drank a Spiked Eggnog > went to Secret snowman dungeon and I got 3 minutes (one time even 5 minutes...) added.

I'm pretty sure of this because after I *thought* it happened the first time I tried again and it worked.

So yeah.
