plus you can look for 2 rocks being spawned close to each other and mine both at once

"plus"

I remember when I said that in sixth grade.

yes, I do that in a spot where they spawn two rocks and mine both of them repeatedly until it moves somewhere else  

Uh, you're talking about me now?
Wow ok.

Alpho already 'caught' me cause he thought I was macroing the mining facilities.
But I already told him that I'm using FB and just putting something on my spacebar to do all my work while I'm AFK or playing Era.

In the end, he changed the whole mining system because of me(lol).
So rage all you want, I don't mind since I'm done with mining(or so).
At least I don't blindly do my things such as ACTUALLY USE A MACRO system to work your ass off.

Then why did you said you used macro in the first place...

Can't argue with admins "hacking-using a macro" they're like police. Have more powers than us but are just ordinary people.

It's common sense macros are illegal. They shouldn't have to restate it.

No. It's common sense to have a program do a tedious task for you.

That is basically a physical macro. Probably not hacking, but cheating nonetheless.

People like you ruin games.

Games in their very nature are simply a challenge to overcome. If I am to overcome the challenge better than the average player, does that make me a cheater, or a winner?  

Kind of touching on what Jatz said,

My first inclination when I see a repetitive task is: "How can I automate this?"
If I happen to find an easier way to do it, I cannot feel anything but accomplished.

Guilt? Cheating? Those feelings don't even elevate.
Technically, since everybody has it within them to learn to automate, I cannot feel as though I'm at an advantage because I've acted on my will to make it happen.

That's always been my philosophy on it.
If somebody's dumb enough to get caught, however, I feel no sympathy.
That's just another barrier to entry.

I can't even list how many times I said that in highschool lmao.

Because they have players like you.

Just reading through the thread and saw this and damnnnnnnnn  

This guy clearly went on the wrong forums to complain about not having the ability or right to hack on a game especially when were all no-lifers, we need no hacks, we practically are hacks.  

Im a hack.
