My friend came over to my house recently when he came into town for a bit. It only took him 1 game on large moniter to notice a significant difference between it and his smaller monitor. The fact that theres that little bit of the screen that you can see at one point can mean the difference between pulling back in time or not. It may not be a tremendous advantage but stuff like this will always exist. 2 people of even skill same equipment and then one buys a better mouse that scrolls a lot more accurately or what not and then he starts winning more of his games. As far as ladder goes people should get to use the equipment they want (as long as it doesn't include hacking). But in tournaments they should make sure everyone is on even footing. | ||

The power of macros is seriously daunting when you get into it. He set up the system on my g15 as well. EDIT: Typo | ||

+ Show Spoiler + AHK is not a program prohibited by Blizzard. However, some of its functions are prohibited by Blizzard. It's very similar to the policy on the G15 keyboard. You cannot use AHK or the G15 keyboard to spam a single key -- even if you are sitting at the keyboard and just want to prevent your finger from falling off. However, there has been no blue post prohibiting using AHK to multi-box. And as always, you can use a G15 keyboard to see who is talking in vent, have more keys to bind to macros, etc. Here's the best blue response I've seen so far on the issue: Assuming the policies between wow and sc2 are similar (and there's no reason to believe sc2 would be any less strict), you can theoretically be banned for any keyboard macroing that results in more than one action per keystroke. Realistically speaking, you can only be caught if you do something egregious, for example, spamming a macro that jumps you to an average 2000 APM in a match. In those cases, it is likely you'll be caught by blizzard automation or your opponents that look back at your replays and calls shenanigans on your APM. | ||

This makes it fake as well, since it's well known that stuff like G5 or mutliboxing are allowed in WOW. | ||

I am all for banning maphackers and the like right from the get-go though, since those policies are more obvious. | ||

"Thanks everyone for the support. I finalized everything with blizzard this morning. they can't unban a key for some odd reason but they are sending me a refund for the game. Luckily the first one was a digital download from their website and i saved all the info for the purchase. my new key (from gamestop) has been linked to my now unbanned email and real ID. My campaign and multiplayer achievements and rank are all wiped. I have to replay campaign and do all the guide 1-2 and 3 achievments all over. luckily my gold challanges were still there although it says not completed for them all instead of giving me my best time or whatever when you mouse over them. but thats pretty much the end of that. I sent them an email asking how they endorse their own macro keyboards and not 3rd party. i sent that email saturday, still no respose. and every other email i sent about the account has gotten a 0min response. edit the damn heart is supposed to be less than 30" So it looks like he did get a refund, but macros are not allowed. | ||
