Client Modification?

Lax,

I know nothing about the back-end of how Inner Space works. Does ISboxer fall under the "client modification" clause if I'm using it ONLY for the purpose of easy window swapping?

I'm referring specifically to this blog about bot-banning: http://community.eveonline.com/devblog. ... nbid=74632

But they seem to have cast a rather wide net for those of us who are simply trying to manage more toons easily while still being constantly at the keyboard.

Thanks.

Re: Client Modification?

ISBoxer very deliberately does not modify the client. ISBoxer, by careful design, interacts with the client in exactly the same way you do, by sending key presses and mouse clicks to the unaltered client. If those things were against the terms of service then the use of mouse and keyboard drivers would also be against the terms of service.

You do not need to restrict your use of ISBoxer to just instant window swapping.

No.

Our policy on ISBoxer has not changed in a long time. I am not trying to trick you or present you with some sort of intricate sting operation. We are currently applying the same rule we have on ISBoxer as we have for quite a long time.


I also did a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) on this topic, under /r/EVE, last Friday: I am the creator of apparently controversial multiboxing software ISBoxer, AMA -- interesting discussion, have a read.
