I macro resource collect, but my characters are very much watched. Never missed a GM, and its not as if i've had them shouting at me for 10 minutes and it was okay. Usually its just the time to stop the macro, go to the window, and type hello. A lot of people report because I don't say hello to every person that walks by to check on me. I don't owe anyone but a GM my attention to show i'm attended. If I have multiple accounts working, I have them set up so I can see them all at the same time. The only thing I cannot do, is talk in all 3 at the same time. Thats it really. I'm sure people will live if I don't talk to them.

Redhawk from $$$ also admitted in their IRC channel to using EUO to resource macro because he wasn't fearing of a ban for it. I have the chatlog if anyone is interested.

Definitely post, I'm sure others that frequent the channel could verify it.

Any further claims by anyone that they are breaking any rules will be treated as fact. This whole subject has been inflamed by attended miners pretending to be afk until a GM appears. and other claims in forums and IRC.

Please see my response in the other thread on this topic in general. and continue this discussion there if warranted.
