Scripting warning bug

Can I get someone to explain to me exactly what scripting is? If I am going to be warned about the possible use of scripting, it would help to know if I in fact am scripting. I keep getting a warning popping up warning me of possible scripting detected. It is a grey box that takes up the entire screen, with the following message:
"Sorry but it looks like there is a problem: Possible scripting detected - please see Terms of Service"

I believe this is a BUG and needs looked into. I don't script (at least not that I know of) and would never script even if I knew how.

Can I get a Dev to respond with some info and possible solution to this bug? Thanks

Scripting is using 3rd party programs, or scripts, to play the game or parts of the game for you. Like having a script that starts your attacks and will delay long enough for the skill bar to reach max and then finish the attack.

Thanks Raven King, that's what I thought scripting was and am now sure I am not. If I was, the dang "S" key on my keyboard wouldn't be so shiny. :lol:

This is definitely a Bug then. Anyone else getting this message?

Nothing? Really? Wow. OK, must only be me and must have stumped the Devs. Guess I'll live with it for the time being.

It was suggested by someone that I may be getting that message because someone has reported me for possible scripting. Since I have not heard from the Admins/Devs, I am starting to think that is the case. It is, of course, is total crap but the silence is deafening.

If you are not using scripts to help you automate gameplay, then you don't need to worry about those warnings. The detection mechanism isn't perfect, so we always double check with server log stats anyways.
