SPY is against TOS. Why are people not getting banned?

lol i mean if you want i can go on twitch and show you my ui if you want to see i can also give you the full list of addons I use. DBM,spartainui, auctioneer, leatrix maps, pawn, atlas, lfg, questie, vuhdo,recount, spy, WA2, extended characters stats, real mob health, bar4, ice hud, prat 3, bagon, GM2.

its not gonna change that fact that your lying about how the addon works

go to the website where you download the add on. I copy pasted what it says. You are complaining to the wrong person. Go to the comments on the add on page and tell them they are wrong.

um it says location on the site not enemy location its tec a correct sentance but again i like how your trying to use the vague sentence pulled from a website to spread your little lie and when people tell you no thats not how the addon actually works you call them a liar and claim they dont use the addon.
again if you want i will do a live stream for ya and show you exactly how this addon works. well? want a show? btw this is me calling you out if you had not figured

ya, just do your show and post it here, IDC

I downloaded it so that I wouldn’t be a victim of a horde zerg for HK farming. I am not your free HK.

dude i dont have the trust level to show post a video on the forums and if im gonna live i’m gonna stay live for a couple of hours get set up to stream for a 5 min but i’m willing to give you my twitch and you can come watch i will prob switch to starwars after that.
again you think im afraid of proving it im not because i use the addon as to others that have repeatedly told people no the location it broadcast is the location of the player with the addon not the location of the enemy faction.

please stop replying to me. You do what you got to do ok. Please chill out before you have a coronary.

??? are you ok because I don’t know where that came from? I not even upset? all i have said is im calling on your bs and will give you my twitch so that you can see how dead wrong you are.

That depends on who you are considering as defending it.

Some of us are just stating what the addon does and does NOT do.
As it get claimed to be capable of a number of things it is not capable of
in some threads, it is magically capable of auto targeting and blasting the stealthed guy out of stealth and marking his exact map location within 5cm

And stating how it works, in an attempt to show you that “Ban Spy” is the wrong answer and wont result in really Banning Spy because it will just be replaced by some other addon called stealth alert or antiganker etc
because no one wants to get anti emotional long enough to look and see that the actual thing you take issue with, is that stealthing is output to the combat log, that simple.

Stealthing is output the the combat log, available for any kind of add on
to read and perform some function, which is how damage meters, healing meters dbm, spell timers etc ALL work.

If you do not want people to be alerted of someone stealthing, which i can fully understand as it does have a logic to it, the act of becoming unseen does not usually entail some attention drawing song and dance, You need 1 thread, with no drama or nonsense, asking if Blizzard would consider removing stealthing/Prowling (to be fair to druids) from the combat log.

Whether they would or would not consider it, i can not say, but that is the only way you could prevent being monitored and called out for stealthing.
Otherwise, there are just too many ways to “Spy” someone, from directly
looking at the combat log after filtering it, to making a simple addon, do doing it externally with an off the shelf parser or a nifty custom perl script one etc.

Other addons one could already use fairly easily
Roguedar, Stealthalert, NoGank, StealthDetect, etc.
Again, ask about a change to the actual issue

Well one thing we are all on the same page about, Rogues havent stopped whining for 15 years straight, anytime they arent allowed to be untouchable at any point in this game.

Yep, and the thing is shutting down the API that Spy uses would disable hundreds of other addons too.

Blizzard is not going to do this.

Also, more rogue tears please!

“I dont believe in reality, or facts; what i say is real and totally not made up, and if you prove me wrong you’re wrong”.

He told me I was wrong when I only copy and pasted from the add on download sight lol. Go troll somewhere else.

Another “I can’t ambush people like a coward” thread…

I use spy on a PvE server, just in case I accidentally get flagged.

yea and i pointed out how while contextually the way its said on the site is logically correct ( its should have been said a different way but it is true the way they said
it) the way that your reasoning out Is incorrect. furthermore i based this assertion on the fact that i use the addon and followed it up with a willingness to demonstrate how the addon works.

None of this is against the ToS.

That isn’t what Blizzard means, by automating. They mean anything that gives you an advantage while you are AFK, while you not having to interact as a live person.

You are still playing, while it tells you a rogue is over there. Then you go and kill it.
