Cheaters Beware

Share:

I'm not sure where this one came from but Zynga is warning us not to cheat. Read all about it on the Official Mafia Wars Blog here.  6,400 accounts were banned for "abusive botting".  Over 1,000 penalties for "lesser offenses". I wish they would define what the other offenses are but for now we are left in the gray. My rule of thumb is that if you have to ask, you probably shouldn't be doing it. Use scripts responsibly and to emulate normal game play and you should be fine. If Zynga starts banning players for using scripts, they can say good bye to the majority of their player base.

  4. ZYNGA!!! LISTEN!!!
    How else can we spend 50k Stamina OR Energy without using things like Brawler.js / RepeatJob.js And Robbit-Faster.js
    Without these things we simply cant play.
    You can not expect us to spend HOURS clicking and clicking and clicking.....


    I think the only accounts that should be banned are the accounts selling loot / RP etc...
    Theave the small scripters out...

  5. i guess it's for thos 24/7 mwap dudes ... set up the script once and it will run endlessly and doing nearly everything for you, even if you just started playing mw.

  6. i'm sure mwap users aren't on their radar, mwap is so slow it effectively emulates a real person. my bet is that it is the players who decide one tool isn't enough, they choose to run 2 or more leveling tools concurrently 24/7 and have reduced the delays to almost 0.

  8. well... i am sure ..most of top level on MWG use this script and i am sure ..
    If zynga can give a better performance .. we WONT use these bots..

    Give us "Power Job" to do 10 jobs per click!
    Give us the rate per job so that we can use our stamina and energy effectively

    I DONT WANT WASTE MY TIME SITTING FOR ZYNGA...
    It is said playing and NOT working!

    THINK..

  9. well I guess this explains why all of the customer service reps who say " I understand your frustration as I am a player too" are never available

  10. I hope they go after the 24/7 MWAP users. Too many of these users gobble up every war assist going, join Ops then don't do them for 8+ hours, and generally don't "work" for their progress in the game. Use automation with common sense people, even Zynga seem okay with that!

  13. most of the strong non cc players use bots. if they ban everyone who use bots, mw = fv.

    ReplyDelete
  14. If Zynga does..then im off this game..yes people use script only to stop the endless clicking part..else most of them are not in the cheat zone..catch the buggers who sell the loot..they must be tracked & banned first..

  15. well time for me to quit mafia wars....

    ReplyDelete
  16. lol guess zynga make new tos without surveying first, we'll see what zynga would do if one by one all mw players all over the world quit playing because this n the profit from this game sinking to the sea:)

  17. I still say Spock and arun and Josh should give players a week or so notice and shut off their servers for 24 hours. This is not so much about the scripts but about the PAC. Let Zynga really see how game play drops off without use of the scripts and then send in the next PAC report

  18. please ban me Zynga, I can't stop by myself... where do I get this auto player again?

    ReplyDelete
  19. I don't think anyone should use bots or scripts. Yes, click and play like intended.... That's the fair way to even the playing field for everyone. I'm level 1775 and have never used as script or spock tools or whatever... Play the game as it was intended....
