NOPE ,Coalition & Worldbosses... a story of breaking rules!

Without pointing fingers at anyone, the precedent this whole situation delivers is absolutely cringeworthy.

Let's take a look at the history presented in this thread. Multiple alternate accounts were created with low level characters positioned on strategic spots using various 'programs' to spot a world boss. Those alternate accounts are DIRECTLY linked to the leadership and members of two named guilds, they even admitted to using them actively. Over the span of time, those alternate accounts got banned, one by one, for botting but NOTHING has happened to MAIN accounts that directly benefited from banned ones and that are DIRECTLY linked to them and are originating/being created by the same players.

Basically, the Staff's response to botting on alternate accounts in order to attain benefits on primary ones (in this case, two alliance guilds who's leadership and members admitted botting on secondary accounts) is that it is acceptable and within the rules, meaning primary accounts will never have to fear any repercussions regardless of them being directly connected to alternate ones/coming from same IP's/are created by same players.

Following this example, I can make a secondary account, and start goldtrafficking/botting/ignoring and breaking the rules in any other way and my primary account will NEVER be in any danger.


Sorry boiz, but I am a tad shocked by the precendent GM's are setting here. This simply goes beyond anything I've imagined..

How do you know those accs were banned for botting? Did a gm tell you or are you just pulling stuff out of your ass that suits you? And where did anyone admited to botting? I looked the screens no one admits to botting, so again back to pulling stuff out of your ass.

An apt summary by Grim. I don't understand the pitchforks here though. They are using whatever advantage available to get the kill, which is located next to Orgrimmar of all inconvenient locations. GMs need to be more clear. If it's against ToS, it needs to be enforced like everything else, not ignored as it seems to be the case.

Moreover, no one is going to ban NOPE or Coalition, don't be ridiculous. At most the use of the addon can be deemed a punishable offense.

Stuff like this is so beyond pathetic that I truly am at loss for words.

Being a tryhard is one thing, but to go to such extremes is just sad.

My experience from Peenix also tells me that noone from the top guilds will ever be punished - no matter the offense.

Nobody was ever banned for botting. A couple lvl 1 spies were banned for being multi boxed w/ mains. NOT FOR BOTTING.

The AddOn is allowed obviously based on responses from GMs.

Sorry if you can't accept the fact that NOPE are bigger tryhards than you. Keep being mad as fuck and making threads like this one though, it's truly entertaining

I think he's refering the the ban appeals of Spyerino and Peach, which is linked in the OP.

Yea but thats not proof just speculation. From what i have seen here NOPE are only using macros and addons to give them a advantage and probably at the beggining they went bit too far which isnt anything special considering people here were banned for silly macros you would never dream could get you banned.

That's the response from Daemon after sending them the source code for the addon itself. That said, this addon is not something we use that much and it does not prevent you from being booted for being afk too long so you have to move your character every 15 minutes.

Furthermore, the reason the scout automatically deselects target is that the addon attempts to target a world boss on every frame rendered (~every 17ms); what this means is, if you, by attempting to attack or attacking the scout forces it to target you (default behaviour in WoW vanilla means you automatically select a hostile entity attacking you as your current target) it will rapidly deselect target due to the sheer number of times every second it attempts to find a new target.

Regards, Vices.

If the script attempts to target the boss repeatedly without human input, how is this not botting?

[KOBOSS]

If this realy is allowed and approved by GM's, then emerald dragons will be a fight between lvl 1 chars.

Hopefully we can get a even fight in the future........

Looking forward to the thread's outcome !

Were the main characters also banned? Or just the level 1 accounts?
