Seems like every time I try to afk macro I come back and I'm disconnected. Trying to figure out if my internet is being wierd or if it's GMs.
cheers

Are you macroing overnight? I think the server reboots every night which is what disconnects me.

UOSA staff doesn't disconnect players who are macroing. Most types of AFK macroing here is allowed. Those who are doing the illegal type (harvesting resources, as one example), are moved into jail and not disconnected.

This includes the illegal act of resource gathering of reagents too, right?

I had this issue when I used wireless internet...especially if you live in apartment complex. Random disconnects and lag spikes. If you have wireless and live in a crowded place bet that's the issue.

Go into your screen saving mode and turn it off. I was having the same problem. Once I turned the option that controls your screen saver to active to "never" then the problem went away.

Under advanced power options you can tell it not to turn off network adapters or harddrives, which will solve the problem while still allowing the monitor to sleep.

The gnomes from South Park did it.........
1'st collect get stuff
??????
3'rd profit
---------------------------
"safe" power junk, power go's "poof" so "fix" it.
ONLY, I / any would be jail by GM's and put in "face's" to learn from things.
Then just a disconnect would NOT a learn from. SO, Just the disconnection did it and you are not in jail....
SO, (1 / stuff) + (reason) = (profit)
disconnect (reason "not GM'd did that") = "has no Time at jail"
--------------------------------------------------------
box , or box, in or out....
my 2 cents and i run and i leave reason.
