The main reason I don’t use it is because it’s a hassle to target, so something like this would be really appreciated.
It’s true that you can turn on auto-attack for an AoE skill and that skill will endlessly repeat. That’s not a bot. I’m all for banning people who are actually botting, but wouldn’t it be easier to simply not allow those types of skills for auto-attack? Banning people for afk’ing in an area where DE’s happen because they have a skill on auto-attack (and therefore look and/or behave like a bot) is worrisome. Do I need to be afraid that if I’m going to be punished if I afk somewhere on my ranger and her pet defends me?
I’m a huge supporter of Anet and of the game, but this just doesn’t sit well with me. On the one hand, I can appreciate a firm hand on rules, but on the other… there’s a line between knowing that you have to behave and being afraid that you’ll turn up a false positive in normal play and lose an account into which we’ve already invested a large amount of time and money.
Can we have some clarification on this issue?
I agree with this, I also feel like arenanet should tone the severity of punishment a bit, a permanent ban for the first offense is a bit harsh, especially in these cases where the intention wasn’t to exploit.
