Log parsing was definitely a thing, although even that was really only done by a small group of people who wanted to figure out how AC worked or see how much damage their raid force was putting out. But most players were not parsing logs for any purpose whatsoever. Graphical overlays and real-time reading of logs was definitely NOT a thing that I ever heard of in the classic era. I challenge anyone to find evidence of such a thing from old websites or forum posts.

I don't believe it to be a cheat but only being resourceful with the log data. You could potentially create 'buff timers' using Windows 10 Alarms & Clock. GINA is just far more efficient.

I don’t think anyone is saying overlays and buff timers and audio triggers were classic.

Even if we assume the devs don’t want us to use GINA, it’s my understanding they can’t enforce a rule against it.

As a Mac player, I can’t use it anyway. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Here's some irony that only GINA users are capable of understanding:

This project is in part possible due to preserved logs from the classic era.

Neat fact.

Still cheating.

It's not cheating. You just don't like it.

I don't even use it, but I'm starting to want to. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Gina bars are pretty. Therefore not cheating. Pretty sure GINA wasn't even a thing last I played, but seeing them in recent P99 videos piqued my interest.

Setting timers is not cheating btw.

I like to let my buffs wear off all the way and have someone ask me multiple time before replenish. More mana efficient than an elderly robot hooker telling me before they even wear off.
