Here's how I see it. I play only 8 hours at max with an auto per day.
Like DJ, I keep my chat off when I'm AFK. When I'm at my pc, I leave chat on, but do not type anything if I'm using auto.
I also switch between names occasionally too, and never play in the same rooms.
I haven't been banned from pogo yet.

That's the way I paly I turn off all my chat's and im's. When some e-mails me and ask me to chat  I  answer them that I can't chat now I too busy playing.

If you turn off your chat and pogo investigates you just tell them you turned it off because your tired of being harrassed. ;)

Yeah...that's what it sounds like they are doing. They better watch it or they could be reported for harassing a player if they do it continually. ;D

I have had something very similar happen to me I connect through AOL, and I get alot of im's and e-mail from people in game rooms. I call it fishing its like they are checking if you are playing or not.

I don't know how many they actually investigate but here is a new trend going on in the chat rooms now. Some rooms are ganging up un players they suspect of using auto. What they are doing is sending you an invitation for private chat and if you don't reply they are reporting people to pogo because they claim you must be on auto if you don't chat. Me I don't worry about it. That's why there is a button to turn off chat. ;)

I believe they do. Sometimes it takes awhile for them to catch up to you.

Welcome to the Board!  :P

im still stickin to my opinion that by using autos pogo wont bann you, they let you keep playing, but when it come time to cash in and win or hit a jackpot i think pogo will hold it and say theu know you've been cheating  :-\

i was just curious if pogo really cares anymore if cheats are being used unless you hit a jackpot.
im sure i have been reported because i am 2 badges from having all the rank games done,and leave the autos on pretty much 24/7. ;D

oh i forgot to say ,great site you have here,some great reading .
