Anyone else been having a problem with this recently? As of yesterday, the regular macros have stopped working after a period of time and then the person who has been killed multiple times can no longer initiate a duel anymore.
Stealth "fix" perhaps?

And the regular macros not working after a period of time has to do with the new changes with macros and being idle. After 10 minutes macros will pause and wont resume until you move your mouse again or initiate some type of movement.

About an hour ago I was running this macro quite happily, smiling in the knowledge that I wouldn't have to kill everything I see on endor for hours and hours on end in order to level up my force boxes, then suddenly I freeze, my macro stops and I can't move.
I then receive a tell from a CSR asking what I was doing. I tell him and he informs me that this tactic is an exploitand if I am seen doing it again, I could face action being taken against my accounts.
So there it is. I expect an official post about this sooner or later. But really, how is itmuch different from using a tumbler to master medic or doctor?

It isn't any different. I would just /addignore and keep going.

I mean no disrespect, Jahsso, but I despise AFK exploits. I am glad to see this is happening elsewhere. I have been informed that timers have been put on the UI interface so that if there is no UI input in a certain period of time then it gets stopped. Not sure how accurate it is, but here's hoping!

Thats not true, there has been action taken to those that are found doing it, that has been reported. Perhaps not all are looked into, in fact, I found out at first, that some CSR's didn't have all the info as to what was happening at the early stages of this exploit, yes, it is an EXPLOIT, because you using a part of that gaming system to get gain in an unfair manner. Players attacking and killing another player just to gain XP to get to Jedi. Thats not real like event of playing at all, thats exploiting the gaming system.
This exploit , a player almost never dies after 3 incapps, which suppose to have died after 3 incapps, but with this exploit, it usually takes 5 - 10 attacks, sometimes more, before there is even 1 death.
Yes, I report players when I see this happen.
Those people that claim nothing happens, usually do not know, because CSR's are not allowed to tell players the outcome of the actions taken with those using the exploits.
There may still be some CSR's unaware of the exploit, so some may get by not getting into trouble.
CSR's will usually give warnings before taking any other actions against someone exploiting. Depending on the severity of the exploit.
I agree with some others about reporting those getting unfair gaining of Jedi, as getting Jedi was never suppose to be easy to get, and not fair to those that worked hard to get it, and got there fairly, without using exploits.
Far as I am concerned, I think that anyone caught using exploits to get Jedi unfairly, should be banned from being able to get Jedi.

Interesting on the UI input thing... does this include Buff/Entertainer macroes? Cuz those seem to be working just fine last I checked...
