If a list of people who use windower was released and windower was really deemed "Ban-able", do you think SE would actually ***-can hundreds of thousands of players? Hell no they wouldn't. The money they would lose would be ridiculous. That's why I believe it's getting to the point where they could give two farts and a turd what you do anymore.(Why there are still so many notorious botting LS's and such still out there.)
So what I'm saying is do whatever the hell you want stop worrying about other people's playstyles because there is jack ***you can change about it... it's just the way this game is. If you don't care for it, go break out your snes and play with yourself

Everyone using windower is wrong, regardless of their reasons. Don't use it. It's their right to be wrong. O.o Who here needs it bad to feel good?

How do you think they get the information for price history and such? By scraping content from FFXI whether using a game client or directly connecting to the AH servers (not quite sure how they get their information). Either way its a 3rd party app for acquiring in game data.

Do as you wish, You only have one life, live it as you would. Its a game, play it how you will. Thats about all I have to say about the windower comment.

So by your logic, its not ok to use 3rd party applications, but if you can gain a benefit from someone else using 3rd party applications then its all good.

I'm in the minority. I don't use Windower, or its add-ons. Sometimes I get really pissed off about knowing (or sensing) someone else is using it, I won't deny that. However, it does piss me off when Windower users feel the need to downgrade or insult my choice.
I understand by not using it my gear swaps require 2+ macroes, and with lag, I can mess up SADE or TADE, or have to hit an RA macro twice because I was standing 2 steps from being "in range." That doesn't mean I'm a shitty player worth not inviting (Happily, it's never come to that extreme... I think).
I just picked up BLM again, and will hopefully finish it this time. I'm not looking forward to being yelled at for not having finished casting Sleepga(II) in Dynamis as the mobs are waking up(Though usually it's a RDM that takes care of it), nor having to spend 1-2 extra seconds to begin casting.

That's what I was saying, subtly through the use of a sexual metaphor.

All windower does is allow you to view the info coming from the server in a more organized way.

You clearly have no idea what the definition of 3rd pt software is so here lets go In computer programming, third party software component is a reusable software component developed to be either freely distributed or sold by an entity other than the original vendor of the development platform. Oh and show me where 3rd pt software is explictly prohibitted not just center uses of it. I dare you

I find the windower thing stupid. if you need it and want to risk it, then use it ,nobody would care really... , all the plugins windower has , like the timer are useless to me since I dont have a job that demands those.plus it sucks that Im not able to play on PC in the first place , just a 360 user

Yarly... Your computer 'downloads' ANY website it displays. Think much? :P
His logic though is since it's not "in the FFXI window" it's not illegal.

Teamspeak, Ventrillo, Any FF related website which gives information, LS boards which are not the actual community site, websites which give plugins and addons to FF11 = 3rd party.

I was just checking out one of Minipie's Pic's an notice a few comments from Haseyo,Atrithk,and Luignata which kinda motivated me to ask how people feel about this particular program. Do you feel players to brag about being as good as they are using this program would be just as good w/o it? (In a rush, didn't bother to check grammar bare w/ me.) I'm curious though how people feel, Ill check post later.
