Macrocheck complaint

Hello,

This is a normal complaint from a player that has been caught on a macrocheck.

I think the macrocheck timers should be increased. I was watching with very attention my screen when I had the urgency of sending an email, I "ALT+TAB"ed to my email window, wrote an email (Not that long), "ALT+TAB"ed again into the game and voilá!! "You go caught on unnattend macroing".

This is very unfair and I feel that I have the right to complaint about it.

For a shard that is in 74th position at UOtop200, that has a player base like 45 max, and needs 500€ of donations to maintain, you treat your players very bad, making me loose hours of gaming, and keeping me away from te game/shard and away from the button of donation. Fun playing pangaea for more 40 hours training? Nah....

Best Regards

Live with it, thats how we others do it. Rule is a rule and you cant change it.

Word.

I had GM tinkering and failed macrocheck while making lockpicks... did i start bitching about it? No. I swallowed my tears and im back at 99.9 :P

Use a macroalert or get a second computer screen to avoid such happenings.

Also the playerbase is far more than 45.

I lol'd.

Those are the rules.
They've always been like that.
They're there for a reason.
Staff aren't treating anyone unfairly.
You got the same treatment as everyone else.

Don't macro unattended.

PS.: Macro alerts are "illegal", according to the rules.

Actually they can be changed and Heryan's request isn't unreasonable.

They shouldn't be changed, they should be left alone. It doesn't need to be any easier to get gains than it already is. Except for poisoning maybe :)

faaaailed many macro checks in my time it all part of the fun of playing on pangaea you spend a few weeks training a skill to loose it in the blink of an eye (if you don't break the rules)

bad times sorry to hear about your unfortionate skill drop a fellow tinker.
