Not a lot of 'chance' there, never been a secret where a LOT of the decal devs stand on macroing. But as stated earlier, our policy is to only killbit a program at the authors request, we really don't want to get into an arms race with them.

Ah, okay. I wasn't aware the El had requested it be killbitted.

As Gouru pointed out... If a plugin or filter or service becomes Killbitted, it is ONLY at the authors request. We will never killbit a LEGITIMATE plugin because "we" want to. It's futile. So.. for future reference (and everyone should be taking notes if you aren't already)...


If a plugin is killbitted, it's because the author asked us to.


Now, you can try to draw whatever conclusion from that you want. It all comes back to.. ELTank has been killbitted because ElgarL asked us to. (Read previous section from notes)

I'm going to pull a Frelorn here, and point out that things change and never might not mean not ever. If however, this policy ever changes, we will let people no.


For example, if we found a plugin that was intentionally hacking passwords, we would probably killbit it as an added safety precaution, whether or not the author asked us to.


And we are NOT against enforcing both the Decal CoE and when we can, helping to enforce Turbine CoC.

Ahh.. correct Gouru...


I guess I should have been more clear and stated that... we won't killbit any LEGITIMATE plugins without the authors request.. (editing previous post).

Posting information on how to get around it would be against Decal CoE and I believe also against ACVault rules.



You are correct sir.

I can run AC for about 10 minutes with GoArrow...regardless of my settings, it seems.

Good thing ElGar said he would support a workaround that didn't modify Tank.dll right? Then 5 days later killbits the program after people stopped paying attention to him. The guy is such an attention whoring toolbox.
