17 Apr 2024 - Rule 3 has been updated with a new entry: "Players who are complicit in cheating by aiding, abetting and/or consciously profiting from illegal actions of other players, may also be punished with 7-day banishment, 14-day banishment, 30-day banishment with or without a final warning, or permanent banishment, depending on the seriousness of the violation and the Player's criminal record." - This doesn't really change the way we enforce the rules, because such cases used to be punished as "destructive behavior". We decided, however, that it deserves to be stated explicitly in the Rules.

We also updated Rule 6.: starting from Apr 25, the automatic auction bans will be twice as long. Check full changelog...

Spitting out groundless accusations publicly is not respectful at all. Neither is the way you reacted to Lord's answer. You suspected that it could be disallowed, so you asked and were confirmed, but then you decide to deny that answer?

Reading the client's memory is not analogous to web scrappers. Those can only read information that is available publicly for everyone, plus they work entirely outside of the game and there is no way to connect them to specific characters/accounts (as I have already explained here). Scanning the client's memory, however, would allow you to gain knowledge that you are not supposed to have and that you would not have gained in a legal way, such as map structure and nearby creatures out of the character's sight (outside of the screen, on the other floors, or in the dark) as well as information about squares with fish etc. It is basically like a wallhack in other games.

The rule 4.d) clearly says that "Players have to play the Game by themselves without any help or involvement of any other than the official software in its currently supported version". And even if this was not mentioned specifically, you were already made aware by Lord's answer, therefore by denying that answer and still insisting on creating such software you are also violating the rule 2.e), i.e. this post:

As I see this issue, in my book reading memory is not forbidden, with your own rules in my hand. So I will build that software. When I see reading is prohibited then I will stop doing that.

Re: Question external software


My apologies if this sounded pretentious or rude, these are just my thoughts.

Again, it would not be a software to have advantages at all (by reading tiles or hidden floors) but it would be used to get a summary of your experience per hour. It could be calculated manually, in fact that is how I currently do it.

Re: Question external software


If you do it and release it as open source anonimously, how would they connect it back to you and bestow a ban?

Re: Question external software


You could make an app that takes a screenshot of your screen for example every 5 minutes and reads from Skills window, the amount of experience in each screenshot, so it can calculate how much you gained in 5 minutes, therefore getting exp/h
