    Happen to anyone else?

    Just won Fafnir pull as usual about 45 minutes ago. Literally 2 seconds after I voked (I was only person who voked, I did win), I got a "Are you currently at your computer? Yes/No" I hit yes.

    Immediately after I hit yes, I get this:

    I thought I FRAPs it, but I didn't get it all. I asked him if it was to combat RMT, and he said it is to help get rid of any cheaters, RMT or not.

    lol nice, doubt it is random, someone must have called gm on your server since most likely you may have a botting ls that claims alot and you happened to get lucky so you got the tell...if this is for everyone..then nice at least it gets rid of the voke mules (for a day or so, and everyone will catch on quick).

    You openly admit to botting pulls on an end-game forum and act surprised when someone gm calls you gg

    Someone probably took a shot in the dark and gm called you hoping you would be afk pulling. Probably happened in the past, so figured they might get lucky.

    Few days ago had GM call on us in under 5 minutes of claiming Nid that we had 3 minutes to release it or engage it... and that he had been watching us sleep it for 3 minutes (claimed with only 8 people)... Gm's call queue might have been low I dont know

    Same message they used to combat fishing bots. Oh well, I think its how it should always be. Although it doesn't really stop botting since most are watched and are outside alliance.

    You can't say no if you're not there, and if you say no, you obviously are there. >.>

    I suspect it'll default to "no" and any affirm action (i.e. hitting enter) will trigger it.

    and wtf:

    Sleep and build hate is more or less standard procedure at Fafnir, surely.

    Nah, he was wanting me in jail. He would have taken me right then. This account has 0 jailings and never had a flee tool or pos used on it.

    "Sleep and build hate is more or less standard procedure at Fafnir, surely."

    We only slept it because we claimed with 8, and 2 was AFK. Our only tank was a taru Rdm/war and a hume rdm/war.

    The bot could hit enter and inadvertently say No.

    ALso, he didn't openly admit anything, the quote which says "my bot provoked" is an edited quote.

    No, the guy was right. I have said it here in the past.

    They said they were setting up a special task force to help catch cheaters didn't they? This could be one of those steps, immediately engaging in conversation with whoever claims the NM.

    Seriously though, they should just make the claim delay for NMs a random number between 25 seconds and 90 seconds after the mob pops. Also it won't aggro until claim delay is over.

    I like that just because it would be crazy to watch people 1min30 into a nidhogg fight freaking out at constant lock outs.

    Yeah, that way when the mob pops you'll get all 200 people crowding on top of it to make sure it doesn't un-load from their screen never to be targeted again. Brilliant! (this is an insult at SE's poor game design, not your suggestion)

    Just use mrargus to target the mob.
