MacroChecks

When did Nexon start doing MacroChecks in Mabinogi? It didn't happen to me until I started doing farming quests for the 'Life Association' event, which I've actually been enjoying as I find it relaxing. It's only happened twice so far, both times after gathering crops, but I can forsee it being really annoying if it keeps happening. I get that they're trying to crack down on bots\alts, but it's kinda annoying when they add a feature to the game and you get punished for enjoying it. Not to mention, I'm just trying to do the quests that THEY implemented into THEIR game. So far it's only happened after gathering from the farm, but what if it starts happening to people to people who go afk? Are we gonna get punished for walking away from our computer, especially since there's a time limit to fill the MacroCheck out. I would hate to get locked out of or lose my account altogether because of something like this.

EDIT: I did finally find the post talking about why they're doing the MacroChecks, but I still find it annoying. Bots ruin everything... -_-

    Yeah its very badly tacked on. Surely there could have been a better way. Or make NPC's farm for you. The farm is very tedious and you can't do anything to take your eyes off it if you want better crops. Probably future plans for partners to make a comeback.

    I actually don't mind farming, but I can see how it could be tedious for some. Yeah, it is badly tacked on and takes some of the enjoyment out of it. That's a good point, though. Maybe partners will make a comeback. All I know is that the MacroChecks happened quicker today than the other day. It was still only twice, but within close proximity of each other. I can see it becoming quite irritating.
