    I think it depends on what software you use?:confuse: it's technically your device and you can do whatcha want with it as long as you don't break the law (no stealing etc) I'm not too experienced in any of this stuff

    By PL

    I don't think it's a law thing

    Just the third party issue of PL, like any game.

    he comes in the leaderboards and hit 56 by writing a macro... its earned enough by doing nothing and very unfair to all others.
    but yes, he remains a noob wich cant play...

    Hahaha Oh

    I'd imagine it's against the ToS because it finds a loop hole in the system, and it abuses it, which is bannable.

    @Ricci, exactly, we can't say whether he knows how to play or not, because we haven't really seen him, but he must not enjoy playing the game if he has to have a computer do it for him, which I don't see the point in being 56 and/or having tons of kills if you don't play...

    Since a macro would be a third party, but not entirely sure what this point means.
    It isn't cracking or exploiting the game to use a macro, however it does give an unfair advantage to those who use such a thing. STS can ban,modify, an account for any reason, that alone should enough to sway people from cheating the system.

    Yeah, I wasn't sure if it would directly mean that, I just search filtered for a third party phrase in the ToS

    But should still be illegal though, I think third party means anything outside of the game, which a macro is.

    I'd say it's exploiting.

    hmm, so our guy wants a 56 with loads of kills but he doesn't like to play? To me is sounds as if he's selling accounts....
