Bot-Using Accounts Banned

[Rinnhart]

I believe that there were some in game tools with EQ for stuff like that from other people I know who have played the game and mentioned the same thing.

In EQ (and EQ2 apparently), you must leave a character online as a vendor, tagged as a vendor via the /trade command, in a restricted area. Other players then buy from you like you're an NPC vendor. So long as the server stays up, so long as you don't camp out, your character will stay in the bazaar selling. This is the limit of EQ automation.

Botting will get you banned from EQ. Tradeskill bots (generally glorified macros) have been used since the early days of EQ and will result in warnings or bannings if you're caught using them.

Glad to see Blizz taking no prisoners.

All MMOs take this stuff seriously, most all of them have "zero-tolerance" policies, as well.

Part of what you're paying for is more security.
