Auto-D, should it be...

legal? I mean I know some people have trojans in it, but that ain't the point. Imagine you are crafting something, then the phone rings, you have to leave, when you come back, your mineral is gone. If auto-d were legal this would never happen.

It is a device that does something for you giving you an unfair advantage.

Imagine you are sparring and the phone rings and you have to leave and when you come back you are dead! If god mode were legal, this would never happen.

If you're all for cheating, yeah, go ahead.

I think the purpose of crafting, and mining amongst other things is supposed to be the money hard earned. While some people may have this convenient to them, others don't. It should remain outlawed.

If you're sparring you can pause and tell your opponent, then resume the spar after you come back, can't do that with crafting

most spars are in the sparring area, Where you cannot pause or use npcs..

Well it keeps you from losing minerals when you have to go AFK.
I'm talking about only using it when AFK, not using it all the time.
It's not like you are getting any extra, you're just not losing anything when your eyes are not glued to the screen.

Most people won't kill you in a spar when they know you're afk, that's the work of lamers, and no one likes being the lamer PKer.

Those that do would get jailed. It really doesn't matter what is done, just something needs to be done so you can be afk for more than 10 seconds without losing a mineral, like being able to pause crafting and freeze the rock so it doesn't react to anyone's hammer until the owner resumes.

It is hard earned, but if you can't leave for 2 seconds without the risk of losing your mineral, something needs to be done.

go outside and pause then, if someone is lame enough to kill you while you are away, they lose respect with anyone who sees them. Not many people will go for free kills

Then don't leave till you crafted it then, Most people ring you 2 times any way, Just in case you missed their first call.
