Thread: AFK Tumblers
http://forums.station.sony.com/swg/board/message?board.id=dancer&message.id=7563&highlight=afk+macro#M7563
I know this was posted to try and help the cause of Dancers/Entertainers who do not like AFK Macroers.
That being said I would like to clarify something; it is not a violation of the TOS, the EULA, or any other rule in SWG to use a macro and be AFK. The CSR in this case was mistaken in their answer, and it has been sent along to their supervisor so that the rules can be clarified for those CSRs who may be confused on the policy.
I wanted to make sure that everyone was aware that the policies do not state that it is a violation. I am not trying to encourage AFK macros just simply making sure the policies are understood since in this case it was incorrect.
Thank you!

Like it or not, AFK macros aren't going away anytime soon. You can either accept it and move on, or become bitter and brokenlike certain people and spend your game time griefing those who don't agree with you.
Tumble on!!

How? All that proves is that it can be done and is not against the EULA to do so. The term "wrong" in this case is subjective.

I think it's pretty clear seeing as how I quoted a post clarifying the rules that "wrong" as I used itshould be interpreted as not being against the rules, which again, was the subject of the quote.
I guess if you have no valid point on the subjectjust argue over the definition of a word. Maybe next you can argue over the word "it", cause "it" couldbe anything.

What I find hilarious about you monkey tumblers is that you get a whole 40k xp an hour paying someone else to tumble, when you could be getting 100k xp an hour buffing and getting paid.
I will let the TOS speak for itself.
