He was also some of the other accounts. Mod Evasive prevents DOS attacks - which is what was serving up 403 errors to some SkyLords players with excessive clicks ^_^;.

does that mean manually clicking is bad?

Yeah, I talked to him, he apparently wanted to be suspended and doesn't plan on coming back until after the reset

and ah, mod evasive is that horrible thing that pissed off players who can click quickly like me and

oh and Iiri, you'll have to forgive people for wanting to manually fly the last ~250 parsecs so they don't show up on intrusion detection

didn't realize you frowned on the element of surprise

Sure, don't mind it - just has to be more balanced in terms of time . Though the truth is, I worry more about 2 other things a lot more RD:
1. My network/server load
2. Reliable bot detection and eradication.

Balance is wonderful, but making botting technically very difficult is the first rule to preserving it. I want a fun game that humans can play against other human players - not having to compete against scripts (though the latter might also be fun - this is not that game )

Hmm, playing vs scripts, I have some experience in that in some of my RTS gaming

A few of the scripts are tough, but scripts just aren't as good as a human (actually I take that back, scripts and humans were about equal, seeing as I was the best at the time for that game mode bar none, everyone was easy ^_^)

Oh, and for the record, 1 click = 1 server interaction is still an acceptable rule right?
aka my/dysdy's script is still legal?
