Remote gaming

Recommended Posts

Hi there, im using RemoteR to do my fishing on my android phone, wich means right clicks and other keys get forwarded to my client. Is that bannable? Thanks.

A friend of mine got banned without possible discussion for using remote gaming (teamviewer). He was playing from his work computer to his home computer. Was banned for using 3rd party programs.

The rules say botting programs are against the rules, not playing on your PC remotely.

Can a GM please clear this up? thank you

Is your 'friend' trustworthy? Forum is filled with people who's 'friend' got 'unfairly' banned.

The elysium servers shouldn't even notice anything different, the input is still coming from his computer.

This is very iffy. While I wouldn't say that it would be bannable to RDP into a computer and play WoW from it, I feel like it would be difficult to differentiate your application from botting. For example, if a GM was watching you, would you be able to respond to him using RemoteR? It is more about how similar it seems to botting than anything, IMO.

yeah im no expert on how the wow client registers events, but it should be kind of the same thing, using remote or being directly local.

However, ever since i witnessed some of the "friend getting banned" episodes myself, i dunno.

Really needs clearing up.

Excellent point. I do it fully zoomed out now so i can notice the whispers. Truth be told registering key and mouse events would be troublesome, dont even know if the client supports that, it probably boils down to straight-up answering a question.

The largest issue by far is how your program emulates botting. For example, would you be able to prove that your program is run manually by you, or automatically via botting? Because for the GM, it would likely appear the same. You are smart for checking about this ahead of time, because this could potential cause issues or a possible ban. Bottom line is this is something that would need to be assured by a GM.

Well i am shit out of luck then...  because i don't have chat on my screen when i fish, so i wouldn't even see a whisper from a GM. I hardly think that not responding to a whisper from a GM would get you banned, he would most likely just log you out and see if how/if you log in again. Teleport you or kill you to see how you respond.

They don't just ban you unless they have tangible evidence of you violating the rules.

I am just explaining how you would incredibly similar to someone that is botting, so it wouldn't be a surprise if they were to ban you for botting after testing to see if you were there... If you couldn't reply or function in any way to prove you aren't a botter, then it just goes to say that they'd assume you're botting..

I have been playing with him since vanilla release, 100% trustworthy. Teamviewer was the only 3rd party program.
