Macroquest

[dannym3141]

So i was gonna play a bit on another server, and i'm sure i remember reading somewhere that macroquest wasn't allowed on p99.

That's obviously fair enough. But i also read that "i use it for another server" isn't a valid excuse.

I was wondering if some server official could let me know exactly what the deal is - if i have it at all on my computer, that's bannable?

If this is the case - what are the options? Install and uninstall every time i play on another server where it's ok to use that - which i assume is a huge ballache? Use a separate EQ directory (or does this even matter? I haven't yet installed it)

Basically - am i being forced to choose between p99 and <other server where i need mq2>?

I have searched the forums for the string macroquest and found no info about it regarding the server rules. Sorry if the question has been answered, but i couldn't find such an answer.

Additional:
I forgot the option "if i have it running whilst connected to p99, that's bannable" - which would be a great solution.

You do not have to load MQ2 if it is installed.

Does it modify game files or is it just something you run before you play? If it is something you run every time before you play, then it shouldn't have any effect unless it modified some files.

Not 100% certain about that though.

[Bentheb]

the way i understand it, is it runs in the background but 'injects' its self into EQ?

if this is right, then just dont run MQ2 when you are on p99, devs can't tell you what software you can have installed, but they can tell you dont use it when you play here.

be like saying we dont like microsoft so if you have office on your comp we will ban you.

[Jeebus]

if they detect it and ban you. I won't cry, even if you weren't using it.

[mitic]

its a standalone program that can be used actively or passively

all in all i wouldnt use it since i heard you need to be some sorf of computernerd to take the maximum use of it besides the risk of a ban on p99

[Rogean]

Having it loaded will automatically inject itself into any EQ Client it finds that its compatible with. If it injects, we will detect it, and theres no excuse; I'll inject your face with a ban.

I can't believe this is even being asked lol

Then they come out with whip!

I would think if you just don't load it up while you're on p99 you would be fine. Just don't "forget" to exit the program.
