Approval is at the administration’s discretion.
2. What counts as “automation”: Any character actions performed without the player being present at the PC (including clickers or any in-game macro content) are considered automation. Exceptions are passive actions (standing, sitting, following another character) that require only a single initiation and then continue until interrupted; resuming such an action requires the player’s presence (another click).

3. Complaints window: The administration may refuse complaints about violations older than 30 days.
