[Locked- See Last Post]

I noticed that lifetank cancelled their admin detectioning section. Now before anyone is like oh UCMer, I think its nice to go and look at a page while having AC in
window mode or minimized for brief periods. A lot of you might not agree, and thats fine, but I don't want this to be a "OMG you suck" thread.

Its clear leaving AC running for anyone amount of time while you don't have THe interface to readily respond to an admin is UCM, whether its 10 seconds or 10 days, but my philophy is that the first 1-5 minute period isn't a big deal, I know thats not what the CoC says, whatever. If you can lend me assistance that would be great, if not please don't respond. Anyway, If anyone could guide me in the right direction to a program like this, I would be greatly appreciative.

For the good of the game it is fortunate that your philosophy doesn't amount to a hill of beans and instead relies on what Turbine says. So in effect you are asking for something to help you in breaking the CoC as Turbine defines because you don't like Turbine's definition.

It's against the law to speed for 10 minutes or to speed your entire trip, just as UCMing is against the CoC for any amount of time.

Yes, thank you guys for that bit of info.

Moving on "If you can lend me assistance that would be great, if not please don't respond."

I'm going to have to define the term "lend me assistance" as giving me the link to the site with an admin detectin utility.

Maddy, if Turbine was a little less talk, and a little more action, your words might also amount to more than a hill of beans. Since actions speak louder than words, then it seems Turbine "says" you do not have to be at your keyboard.

Actually, I was also going to look for something like this. I could give a rats butt about the admin alert, but would love a tell alert, like eltank had. Everything scrolls by so fast with 10-15 bugs attacking me, that I often miss tells.

Then I'll define to you what a public forum is and how they tend to work. If you don't want responses from people, no matter the reason, then don't post to a public forum.

Which has nothing to do with the topic at hand. If you have an issue with how Turbine functions then take it up with Turbine.

what a crock of horse ****.

in the pre chat box main, 1-4 days yes that was true, but now you can put magic and combat messages into box one and all tells into main and trade into 2 and that way never really miss anything.

Why is it that people are so nice to help in game, but on the boards everyone is a jerk (myself included).

hehe.. so simple, yet I didn't even think about that. Can I move all the melee combat text out of the main box, and into a side box, so it doesn't show up at all in the main text box? I'd check if I were at home, but I'm not, so I can't.

Yup, you sure can, that's what I did.

My main chat window is local chat, allegiance, and tells only. Then have all combat, damage, and spell casting in a secondary window.

asking for an admin alarm to help you break the CoC is not allowed on these forums.

UCM is against the CoC regardless how long you do it, and you clearly told us how UCM you were and how you don't care about the rules.

I like that you don't try to make excuses, but I greatly dislike your indifference to the rules.

Why can't people just follow the rules? It's not like the rules were put there intentionally to disrupt your play. There are good reasons behind the rules, whether you want to follow them or not.

We've had this discussion once on a blue moon. Turbine has expressed their wishes against the use of Admin Alarms, and decided it was a topic to be left at that... Not to mention this will probably start another flame war, which none of us want, right? =)

To answer your question, there is no plugin that I personally know about that will alert to admins. Lifetank and Spies to name a few will still alert to other player /tells and was never removed.

Also, Drakier is correct. UCMing is against the CoC of Asheron's Call, it doesn't matter how YOU interpret it; be it 5 seconds or 5 hours... and discussing ways to break the CoC is generally frowned upon happy
