you are using a crutch on my server when i ask that you atleast try to walk on your own.



I think it's pretty clear he wants humans playing without a
computer 'assist' such as scripts or macros. I think it's a
reasonable request, and my only request was that it be well
posted. We shouldn't debate it too much here in rebangs.

Best of luck with your server, Slother3x. Be sure to post
advertisements for your server on the TradeWars Facebook
page, as it has more traffic with the non-scriptor types...

For colonizing at least I could make a macro and let that run repeatedly.
As for rules- I was referring to rules in general.
There is no one right way to play this game, as I have mentioned repeatedly in other threads.

OK then.

Crutches are not tools. Crutches get put down when no longer required to stand/walk. Shoes are tools. They allow you to go where it would be more difficult to go otherwise (hot sand, sharp rocks). You can get to where you're going without them, but it would be a big pain hehe.

i supply a carpet for your feet if you want to get technical

So are you cool with macros then?

Yes. just be at the helm when i try to contact you. and don't rely on them like you would a crutch.

Yes, hang in there. It may take a while for #1 the manual players to come back & #2 for them to feel confident that they won't get stomped on my heavy script users.

A good friend of mine, actually the guy who introduced me to Tradewars still to this day insists on playing 100% by hand. He hasn't played in years, he's trying to get his telnet client working with his Mac. I'll let him know you have a sever he'd enjoy playing on.

Personaly, I do use some scripts for trading, hauling and colonizing and he's of the same opinion you are :) He thinks I'm cheating. Hehe..

But, that's the beauty of this game, you can create different games for different playing styles. Even for the 2400 baud croud! (That's what I started on as well.)
