Find It!'s agreement asks that you not use it with programs capable of Unattended Combat Macroing.
Although the lifetank devs HAVE taken strides to make it less valuable unattended, it still automatically targets and kills multiple monsters without requiring user intervention, so qualifies as a program capable of UCM.
If you use Lifetank, please don't use Find It!.

I haven't seen Alinco mentioned, it has pretty good item/monster/etc ID and alert features, and not a whiff of UCM about it.

You say, "FOR THE VITAE!"
Ru tells you, "CHAZ!"
Simply Red tells you, "I am SO not recovering your body!"

Arch Magi: Aye, that is why I wanted to inform people here now. So that they can make plans for their ACMing needs.
ElTank may work for 1 month or 6 months, but eventually it will break and when it does, there will be no support for it.
Damn you people are lazy

I find it a little sad he's not willing to "turn over" the project to another person/s or group for future developments.
I can say this was/is the best plugin ever made. No one has beat it yet. Not with sheer features.

Heh..
Ah, No Comment. Free? Ah.. still no comment.
edit: The loss of ElTank will be felt all around. I know we won't be able to stand up to the legacy of ElTank, but we still want to try to bring something to the players.
Elgarl will be missed, I regret not being able to talk to him much.

For free wouldn't be the reasoning. Heck, if he auctioned it on e-bay he would make a pretty penny.
So put your sarcastic, un-educated, bias opinion right back where it came from sir. Sorry if your only response to this post is a response to me, and not the original poster.
Edit:Because I am educated enough to check my spelling over.. after I post  |

Well someone could root around on his server and see if they can find the source code anyplace. Then again I wouldn't be surprised if someone hasn't tried that already.

They'd never find it. The Source is only on one PC and thats not accessable from the Internet.
As to giving the source out, it won't happen. When you've spent as long as I have developing and supporting a project like ELTank you become extremely attached to it. It's my baby and it would be impossible to just hand it over to someone else.
Sure I could even make a substantial amount of cash if I sold it on EBay, but I've never been in this for the money. Those that are loyal supporters understand my reasons for quitting and for keeping ELTank private.
