rly? i thought Cliff was working on enabling random goodies, like a good cell shader for his windower and such >_>
all that was scrapped, Read the thread "its time they passed on the torch" at their boards. They dont have time to do anything more for windower and will only fix it if it breaks, As of now new features and the next windower with those features are far on the back burner.
I miss windower tho...it sucks not bein able to alt+tab out >.<

and more bad press for SE? how smart do you think SE is? oh wait...

Hopefully SE realizes that they tank a nice chunk of players away, and adding all of those mules would make SE's wallet look like a featherweight.

Oh Noes!
 
i think thats why SE won't ban you unless you being dumb and tell everyone you got windower, etc, because they know there is thousand of people have windower, so if they ban them using windower, SE won't have alot of income from us. So i think SE let you getting away with windower, but fleetools, pos, etc they will get ban for sure :P
 
This is directed to those who think SE banned people for windower.


Logicaly to have less people use said program wouldnt they just come out and say, we are banning for windower stop. Instead what many people are saying, that instead of banning for flee tool, they are secretly banning windower people. Come on think about the inherint stupidity in that concept.
 
I hate to say it, but Dire's right. 2,000 accounts out of ~450,000 is a pretty good count of how many people actually have used flee hacks. Windower on the other hand, would look more like 120,000.

I hunch that SE had intended for this patch to break Windower in the way that it did. It allows them to get a vague idea of how many people actually use the app by tracking how many d/c's occur immediately following signet / sanction / outpost casting. I'm almost positive they have a good idea of who uses it, but I could never see them taking heavy action (read: permaban) on that many users. It's against the ToS, but the actual detrimental effects of windower on the game are minute at best.

SE has to be using Windower themselves on test benches, and are probably working on finding ways to track other apps that co-operate with windower but carry more of an impact on the game. I.E. flee hacks.

I think it would be really nifty instead of attempting to avoid windowing XI, SE would just buy the rights to windower itself...

Technically they could, and I don't see why they wouldn't if they refuse to make one themself.
 
well if it wasnt for windower then i shouldnt have been suspended, I havent even been playing on PC that long, Maybe 2 months, and all i have is windower. So if that and the short time ive used it is enough to suspend me then f it. Im not using windower anymore, and once i get the 360 version ill be set.
 
I think they did not just ban people for hacks etc one of my accounts that i ONLY use on PS2 got its #2 warning and on last chance :( so i think they just toke a random guess at who is useing windower lol.
 
Every time I want to use win. I have to go online and open it, is there a way to save it in PoL so I can open PoL in win. mode by just clicking PoL shortcut? Hypothetically of course, win. is bad.

No, there were some photos of the GM offices posted a while ago and each GM has two PCs.

No lie. They have two keyboards per station and two monitors.
