And the Email that i got said was this

Your The Lord of the Rings Online account has been suspended as a result of a confirmed Player Code of Conduct violation.

This suspension is for 7 days .

Specifically, a Game Master determined that you failed an Unattended Combat Macro test by an administrator.

What can I do to advoid this in the future? And how did this occur?

[bob]

Any other detail, or more specifically, any information about what the GM did in order to test you?

Essentially we can't detect GM tests without knowing what they are, and the only safe way of passing them is to be present when they occur.

[woutertje1991]

seems to me that your toon was stuck but still trying to get around a rock or something like that.

maybe a GM walked passed you and saw you moving in a weird way for like 10 mins.. and you got banned.

at least the log shows that you were getting stuck

[bob]

The log indicates that he might have been ported between locations too. There is a big jump in the distances.

[bob]

further to this. can you attach your full log file. would be good to get some of the prior detail to see what was going on. you may have had attantion drawn due to the length of timg you were stuck, or there may be some other things in the log that would be handy to know.

and i just finished a 12 hour bot on same server.[/color][/b]

Thanks for the log file.

I'd say that the GM has prevented your character from moving, which is why there is all the stuck movements. The bot program does attempt to turn and move when it gets stuck, so it would have been obvious from an observer that it was not being controlled by a person with the fairly basic movements that are used to try and extract from a stuck position (effectively turn 90deg, try and move, turn 90 deg, try and move etc).

As for the ban. Turbine very rarely perma-ban people. They like paying customers, and if they perma-ban you then you aren't going to pay. You will only get perma-banned if your actions strongly impact the balance of the game and the enjoyment of other players, e.g. gold selling, PVP botting, node stealing, kill stealing etc. (it goes without saying that some people are just annoying anyway and like to make other people miserable so will report you if they have even an inkling that you may be botting).

If you get banned, you should never admit to botting/macros. If you want to dispute it, come up with a decent excuse that doesn't involve macros/bots, or someone not being at the keyboard at all times of play.

edit: crap had a bit more on how to avoid detection but got timed out and lost it. May repost when I can be bothered
