This game is actively allowing players to afk macro?

Technically, if they are not present. And inputs are happening to perform tasks....

That isnt just macroing.... thats botting.

Lets end it.

That's as may be, or may not be.

If you're making people press and hold a key or press repeatedly to perform an action like picking <vegetation>, you're asking people who have from 20 to 80+ years left of wanting to use their hands to manipulate things (like, but not limited to keyboards) without pain or the need for surgery to take a risk to play your game. I know it must seem like a distant threat to most.

This is the worst excuse ive ever read.

This games not going to give you carpel tunnel...

Your 9-5 is.

It may however, ruin your eyesight..back posture...etc...

If you're a gamer...you gonna game anyways..on multiple games...

So this excuse doesnt even make sense.

Maybe I'll ask a medical professional about this. Until I do, I'm assuming that your carpal tunnel can't tell what you're doing (work? play? sports?) with your hands, and that it's all cumulative. People were getting CTS before some kind of typing became almost universal in the first world; thus the warnings not to use the heel of your hand as a 'hammer' in manual labour.

I know you'd like your point to stand, but mine doesn't assail it that hard. I'd simply like to see gathering not require repetitive stress, as (for a while, in MO1) it did not use to. I'm sure Star Vault can, if motivated, take care of that once again.
