Question @rulemakers / Hacking / ? / Banning /

I'm left handed, so in the past (playing WoW) I've used autohotkey to make it easier to play. For example, Blizzard doesn't consider AHK cheating if you bind only 1 action to 1 keypress, which prevents botting. The "1 action per keypress policy" as it were.

From other threads here, it's unclear to me if rebinding keys is considered cheating.

Yes, you can rebind keys within the game, but ignore that fact for the sake of answering my question.

Seriously?


You need a bot because you are left handed?

There are tons of left handed people who have done all the content in this game 100x over and don't need any 3rd party software myself included.

No, you can't use an autohotkey program and you would get banned for doing it.

It's EQ not Starcraft.

No, I don't need a "bot" to play. I'm asking rulemakers not trollers.

I'm not a dev, but this is a valid question. I don't see a problem with using AHK to rebind keys.

Players using Linux can do this anyway through the OS. Since you can rebind in game, using AHK would not give any sort of advantage in this manner.

I would say aslong as your at the computer when using it and not having some sort of automated program running i would think its fine aslong as it doesnt inject anything into the game. As as a lefty though how have you just not gotten use to being a righty on a PC after all these years?

I'm pretty sure this is not the case. I'd love to make tracking bots for people (who are gonna sit there) but I was told it's not allowed. Also, duck tape not allowed either.
