I imagine after I fell asleep at my desk and died to a creature, and auto departed, you'd go back to the temple and drag me/include me in your group and let me die again, hoping i'd run out of favors so i'd leave a grave. I guess you got tired of trying so you turned me in. 14 favors left. Pity i lost my classic Greataxe to you thugs.

This sucks for you.

One suggestion is to make sure the log out timer is set to 5 minutes, and that your scripts don't cycle without your input.

If you code an infinite (or nearly) loop, this is the risk you run.

>>Don't afk script.

Who said I afk scripted? Something wrong with a script that "looks" every 60 seconds to keep me in game?

Or is that an admission.

Other than it getting you killed a few times?

It's safe for anyone reading the thread to assume that if you died to a critter, unless there was an invasion happening you died in a hunting area. And, if you fell asleep at your desk while in a hunting area, that counts as afk scripting, even if you didn't intend it to happen.

Or, say, if someone dragged me, or added me to their group and walked me there. Then it'd be punishable harassment.

You should assist about that.

Too far and gone for that. Life goes on, and the forum was merely a means to vent at someone using dirty tricks. C'est la vie.

If you are idling while AFK, I strongly recommend that you go to a safe place (ideally a locked room), enter sleep mode, and turn on avoids. It will prevent you from getting killed by an unexpected creature and prevent others from messing with you.

Thank you Isharon. In this instance though, I succumbed to exhaustion and went to sleep in my chair when i didn't mean to. Late night working and MUDding don't mix well i guess, lol~

Unless it was days ago, that's not really the case. But I won't twist your arm to talk to a GM about it.

In that case, I would recommend not using an infinitely looping "connection" script except when idling in a safe room. Without any intervention on your end, you will automatically disconnect from the game. (I actually use FLAG INACTIVITY OFF as a safety feature. If I'm not sending any commands to the game, then I've either lost my Internet connection or gotten distracted; in both cases I would like the game to log me out.)

A script that made you "look" every 60 seconds while in combat area, is indeed a afk script. You would be gaining experience while you were not at the keyboard. That script is what got you graverobbed. I came to that conclusion because pretty much nobody dies to a critter, and autodeparts without logging off first, unless they have a script to keep them online. Then you admitted you had a 60 second look script up, while you got killed by a critter. So unless it was in an invasion, which I guess it could have been, you really have no room to gripe.
