Good thing that you reported


You are mistaken, anywhere in the game you can get with legit means, that is, your ship is fine. Though if you don't have a ship yet, and are running around on Balmora or Ilum, then you have an issue.

Your misinformation makes you look ignorant.. or straight up like you are pushing negative propaganda.




Doh my bad, you were quoting someone else and in turn I quoted your quote of someone else's quote of a quote that was quoted before i quoted your quote of your quoting of someone else's quote.

The level 12 in question is more likely a gold farmer who's directly controlling that char among others. OR it is being controlled by a dedicated external program that simulates pre-reforded user input.

This has nothing to do with macros. I really wish people would stop associating them with this type of activity.
Quoting so this doesn't get lost.

Macros != cheating/botting.

If you're complaining against macros, you probably have no idea what they do or how to use them; people fear what they don't understand.

Yeah, I know that it sounds silly. There was a sticky on general when they did ban people camping these boxes. I wish I could find it but I cannot.. People did get banned even if they didin't bot. They just were not meant to be there at that level.
If you can find the sticky for me and prove that I'm wrong, please do so. I don't want to spread BS. D:

Sounds well dodgy.
Sounds like the 'pos hack' tricks seen in games like Rift and others I've played.

while it's only possible with someone helping you, i've known people to have ships at lvl 9. class-quest related, guys, not level-related.
I heal for you. You kill for me. Seems a workable solution.

I've seen this lvl 1 guy stand at a mailbox for hours and hours doing nothing but jump up and down every 5 seconds in the start zone of Hutta. A lvl 1 just stand there...at that mailbox just outside the very building you start the game from!

I leveled up a bounty hunter from 1-10 and everytime I came back to town to lvl up and what not...he was still there doing same thing...macro jumping every five seconds next to that mailbox....??? lol....there is alot of weird stuff going on in mmo's

I saw this guy at lightning speed going from nod to nod splicing without any aggro at all in Coruscant while I was on an alt of mine. Could have been a lvl 50 I dunno but it was the speed at which he was doing it...I mean it was instant...nod to nod

If a game is on the internet....it will be botted and hacked. Everytime i log in...i am already getting credit spam in my mailbox ...each day...and it is from a different person with goofy letter'd name like...Wxxxdllwopla,..so why bother reporting as spam? Next day a new name is made and same thing

welcome to mmo's

but in fact if that is true forgive me.... otherwise im pretty sure its not forbidden to go to a planet before your in lvl range...
This is a rumor based on a faked troll post.
Devs explicitely stated that it is absolutely fine to go to Ilum as low level.

LOL , they cant have seriously forbidden low lvl people to go there , if they want to do that then they should implement a ingame rule that does not allow that , not just say you must not go there and if the person go give them a ban.

I only see as reasonable to ban a player if he is using an illegal program to do that , if he is running around himself at low lvl then it is his game , and they did not implement a lvl restriction to go there.
The Lord said: "QQ enough and thou shall receive it."
The followers said: "I shall QQ my lord, i shall QQ."
And since then , not a single day passed without the QQs being heard.

Oh then it makes sense.
