The Private Store nerf has basically eliminated the heavy queues now.

Ebonlore was fine on Dark Crag in Warhammer (if it's the same guild). I don't recall any of them getting banned for cheating and they were mostly civil on the forums. Of course, they were getting zerged to hell by Ruin ...

By reading the offsets of the program the bot program can ascertain the player's exact health, location, the distance to the mobs around the player, the health of those mobs, etc.

My script guesses those things and follows simple rules to determine the next course of action by reading the color of certain pixels on screen. Using this script in an area with social or aggressive mobs will most likely lead to death. Eventually, the bot will end up in some corner or wall where it can't target any mobs nearby, and it will turn in a circle non stop.

On the other hand, AutoIT scripts are easy to write. My next project will be a script that performs work orders to grind tradeskills. That should be really easy.

Yes because going from being able to play when you need to go out for an hour to now not being able to and stuck in a hour + que is acceptable..

For some reason, this is the main reason why I am enjoying the hell out of Aion. Well, outside the of the gold sellers, but I really haven't had many encounters with them. The spam never bothered me much in WoW, but the economic downside did and I really hope NCsoft does do something about it, otherwise I may quit. Tradeskilling is actually fun in this game, but I don't want the economy to die and render my tradeskilling useless.

Agreed. I mean yes the queue's went down a lot, but 30 minutes is a bit short. If they increased it to an hour to or hour and a half or so, the queue's would still go way down but you could still step away for a bit and come back. (And lets be honest, if your going to stop for more than a hour you really should let someone else in).

It's not the tells. It's the 3 gold spammers in Akiros village for the last 4 hours in /say and /yell with 4 lines of text each.

Where the hell are the GMs? There's only like what, 20 servers, and they can't even police the noob zones during launch weekend for this stuff?

no, ignore doesn't work when every single one is a different name.

I just don't listen to any general channel and it's fine!

So is anyone else having issues with McAfee and Aion? I keep getting trojan warnings and the game shuts down.

I'm glad a lot of the WoW fanboys are bailing from this game. I guess they soon forget how bad WoW beta / launch was.

Well, that and they've never heard / read about the tendencies for Korean MMOs to be grindfests.

I am still waiting to see what the 24 man raids are going to be like. Im hoping they are worth the time it requires to grind to max lvl.
I want get back into competitive raiding again but not sure if Aion will hit the spot or if i should just go back to EQ2..
