Just a rumor or true?
Teams caught using illegal scripts to quickly sort all online users versus offline in the Elim Panel.
Staff only gave warning, no penalty?

They should get some fed time , anyone that creates these sorts of scripts should know the rules by now , They have a tools and userscripts forum with the rules pinned at the top . - Viciously_Grim [2752611]

Due to the pagination (infinite scroll) sorting the page requires auto scrolling which is illegal

I agree, they should take 22 lives at least!
They should just be disqualified. 😒
Grok is this true?

Pathetic, make bug reports like the rest of us. This is supposed to be a f**king beta, where we tell the devs what to fix. TF is wrong with these people?

Is a script sorting online people from offline illegal? I'm not too familiar with scripting but it sounds pretty run of the mill.

Thanks for the explanation!
that's so stupid just make the script but you just scroll yourself, then it wouldn't be illegal, why would you even add an auto scrolling feature

React unloads rows after you go over them, only "holding" what you are currently seeing, or what is directly above or below,
Even if you would scroll to the bottom manually and then sorting, react would have unloaded the upper content already, and again, you can't sort what isn't there anymore!
Had to look at the account sex symbol because this is too on the nose.
I stand united with you, sister ✊🏼
yes you can, just use a script to remove the part that unloads it or keep it loaded in, I have a script I've published on here that keeps items from unloading themselves. (not the purpose of the script but it does it)
Cuz lazy.
Pre-faction API scrapers used to work the same way. Do all the scrolling down faction logs so the user didn't have to bother scrolling.
Second that they should definitely get some sort of punishment for it.
tbf this should be implemented as a feature, but i agree it sounds like cheating if not available for all
If this was the entire issue with the script, then I understand why they just got a warning. It clearly isn't all that much of an advantage. The little button on my mouse unlocks the scroll wheel and with a good spin will scroll to the bottom of any page automatically. Hell, just hold space. Damn, literally the same thing. No unfair play at all
I can't even see online status without doing mini profiles. I could probably tell you exactly when the script went live based on when we started getting slammed at key moments. This script gave a huge advantage and whoever used it should buy my certificate of lame to compensate me for f**king me all day.
He just doesn't get it
