Speed Autoclicker - allowed?

I would say a big no, but then again have you seen Orr lately?
It automates game play, so yes, you can get banned for it.

You won’t get banned for it. Just make it so that you have to actually be there holding a key for it to work (this isn’t even needed, but it’s a w/e). People use these all the time.
You could get in trouble. I used an auto-clicker for my Drunkard title in GW1 and never got caught. Prior to getting the title, I even reported a few people who I knew were using one; nothing happened to them, so said screw it, I’ll do it too.
Seeing that a few facets of the game are almost impossible to do without an auto-clicker (aka opening 1mil+ karma of orian boxes, or the drinking title), it would be silly for Anet to punish people for the use of auto clickers.
Also, there isn’t really an “advantage” of using an auto clicker, other than opening or using consumables fast and without killing your finger, but that really isn’t game-impacting.
I think the easiest solution to the use of auto clickers, though, would be a MUCH more user-friendly interface (something this game is highly lacking). This would include allowing someone to buy “X” amount of something from a vendor, consuming an entire stack of a consumable, or opening all of a box stack in an instant.

- Open your mouse driver
- Temporarily bind doubleclick to your mousewheel
- Hover the karma potion
- Scroll
Legal way to speed up the consumption and reduce stress by several times
I’ve never thought twice about using keyboard macro functions for this, in either GW1 or 2. It’s clearly not botting.
I wouldn’t trust 3rd party software, though.
I use the Windows feature thing called mousekeys, which counts the + key on the right of a keyboard as a double click, and the 5 key as a single click. It doesn’t hurt the finger as much as using the mouse, and it only requires half the amount of clicking when opening stuff like Karma jugs.
That sounds like a Packet Editor wich can be tranlated for cheating.
From what I remember in some dev post about this, I think it should be safe. And if they actually ban people for this, we should show up with torches and pitchforks in front of their offices. Creating a game of stackmania and not having “manipulate all” or “manipulate x” options AND then banning multiclickers seem like a crime against humanity. You may use the scroll wheel trick pointed out here though to be completely safe.
Here is one (of many) Dev responses on such subjects: https://forum-en.gw2archive.eu/forum/support/account/Very-Specific-Doubleclick-Macro-Question/first#post2620752
Forget karma jugs, this sounds like somthing that would be usefule when using the grenade kit.

And that would be exactly why they are not allowed.

Then they can buy me a new keybard when the number 1 key breaks because they couldnt be bothered to make an auto attack for it.
but srsly, making a freaking auto-attack for it already. This games designed around autoattack!
Thanks for the many answers, but i would appreciate it, if a Dev would give an answer.

They have already.

You cannot program an “auto-clicker” macro that, for instance, opens chests while you play elsewhere.

So, like I said. Make it so when you hold down x key, it spams mouse 1. It isn’t automated play, you’re actively there hitting (holding) a button.
Ok, thanks. Hope you’re right!
