Question on game bot detection.

[Rubexcube666]

So I run a bot on my computer for a few tasks daily. I don't use it for EQ as that would defeat the purposs of playing the game.

But if i have the bot running software for me in the background of the game would the game detect it and think I was using it for EQ?

If so every time I play should I just turn off the program?

Don't want to get banned for a violation I didn't commit.

Thanks for all future insight on this!

Supposedly they can only detect like MQ and stuff if you are using it on the game. If you're asking without using the words if you can get away with cheating I'd say definitely not.

Turn it off while you play EQ.

Thx Ssleeve, no I run it on a facebook game to auto harvest for me.... cuz i'm lazy like that, also to run instances in it over and over.

I think the GMs have the ability to see what processes are running on your machine through a dll. If the process is not EQ-related, I'm not sure whether they would take any action. Feel free to correct me if I am wrong though.

But Ssleeve's suggestion is probably good advice.

This would be a little bit too invasive.

I doubt they can see a bot not related with eq.

Simply put if you are thinking of AFK Macroing, no matter what the program, don't do it because chances are you will get banned.
