Were would it take us? In a few years will all attractive mobs be "roll offs"? Thats not a good way to go for the server.

Cant really use the autofire argument as thats not legal and should be policed by the GMs. If autofire is not allowed, it should be reported/policed, not change around how the game is to be played.

That's the core problem here: there are no good options here. The only one I could see is if the staff added some sort of /list-like feature ... but of course they have lots of other things they'd rather do I'm sure.

Until they do, we can only choose the "least bad" of some bad options. Rolls do have some downsides ... but to me (and most people I think) they are far better than the alternative of clickfests and Autofire.

And as for saying "the staff should just magically get better at catching cheaters" ... that's not a (real world) answer: it's avoiding the fact that we have two bad choices by wishing for an imaginary third one. I don't think the staff are going to get any better at detecting click software if they haven't figured it out after a decade.
