    Sick of buying garbage profiles

    The point was I bought honorbuddy $60 ONE TIME lifetime payment, installed it, loaded up a grinding profile and left my character grinding from start to finish tens of times. Never even had a thought to look back at it. I only opened my WoW screen to see how much progress it had made. Wrobot looks like a toddler in comparison with the BEST available content.

    Honorbuddy was a 1-button bot after a couple years. Don't glorify it as being perfect from the start. Bossland had hired a few developers and made it what it was at the end. Kickazz did a good job on his profiles but there were a lot of issues with it concerning standing there with no quest giver, not using spells on npcs when it was suppose to (This one I'll never forget because it got stuck all the fucking time https://www.wowhead.com/quest=26520/saving-foreman-oslow or https://www.wowhead.com/quest=26232/lous-parting-thoughts) <- Both were broke until Echo fixed it years later. The corrections to the profile he made were corrected when users let him know and he didn't even fix all the problems. You must have come in at the end of HB when Echotiger was writing the questing profile, who actually rewrote the whole thing by the way, and had multiple toons constantly running through it every single day. The WRobot API is pretty extensive and if you can't find it in there you can use WoW API, Events, or LUA. Pathing to me is the part where WRobot is really lacking. HB had a lot of navigation points, which I'm assuming, is why HB ran so smooth with very little stucks and not so many zigzags.

    Droidz is a single person and does not wish to bring on anyone else and chose to let the community sell profiles and let the community judge those profiles. Kind of like what Bossland did except Droidz doesn't take a 30% - 40% cut of the profits. If you don't like the profile give it 1 or no stars, give your reason why, then move on. 

    I do agree with putting AFK in any profile listing is wrong as even a profile that runs 99.99% AFK is not an AFK profile. 

    Droidz more than likely opted out of retail to avoid the possibility of affecting his private server bots which was actually more popular when he discontinued the retail version. WRobot is basically an interface tool to use for WoW private servers. I have not been here since the start but it seemed more like a melee rotation tool in the beginning more than anything.  

    Oh and that one time Lifetime payment for 3 sessions was not $60 it was 60€ plus it wasn't really Lifetime was it? Bossland revoked all of them and placed everybody on monthly, quarterly and so on for payments. I've seen you mention that a few times and it is irrelevant.

    I didn't want to start this - but yes, thank you. And as much as I like helping people, I don't quite enjoy getting daily questions (aka please fix this code for me) from people who don't understand what a variable or a function is or how to properly concatenate (or fomat) a string.

    There's no reason Smokie should be shitting on paid content. We (i.e. other sellers and elite) know his history here and he's not someone I'd call a developer.

    Mike Mail?

    Why does the processing of quest profiles take so miserably long?

    Sorry if I was misunderstood and I'm glad you brought up HB. My examples are just examples but they can be easily understood what I meant.

    Here is a snippet of the HB Auto Launcher: 

    
			<If Condition="Me.Race == WoWRace.Human" >
				<Code File="LoadProfile" ProfileName="Starters\Human.xml" />
			</If>
			<If Condition="Me.Race == WoWRace.NightElf" >
				<Code File="LoadProfile" ProfileName="Starters\Night Elf.xml" />
			</If>
			<If Condition="Me.Race == WoWRace.Dwarf" >
				<Code File="LoadProfile" ProfileName="Starters\Dwarf.xml" />
			</If>
			<If Condition="Me.Race == WoWRace.Gnome" >
				<Code File="LoadProfile" ProfileName="Starters\Gnome.xml" />
			</If>
			<If Condition="Me.Race == WoWRace.Draenei" >
				<Code File="LoadProfile" ProfileName="Starters\Draenei.xml" />
			</If>
			<If Condition="Me.Race == WoWRace.Worgen &amp;&amp; Me.Level &lt; 90 &amp;&amp; (!IsQuestCompleted(26706) || Me.MapId == 654)" >
				<Code File="LoadProfile" ProfileName="Starters\Worgen.xml" />
			</If>

     Also, in the profile itself can be: 

    if (!QuestComplete(50))
{
	DoQuest(1)  
	DoQuest(2)  
      "
      "
	DoQuest(50)        
}

if (!QuestComplete(100))
{
	DoQuest(51)  
	DoQuest(52)  
      "
      "
	DoQuest(100)        
}

    or: 

    if (MeLevel >= 10 && (MeLevel < 15)
{
	Load Westfall Profile here
}
                                   
if (MeLevel >= 15 && (MeLevel < 20)
{
	Load Redridge Mountains Profile here
}

    Those were the types of "if conditions" I was referring to. I apologize for the lack of detail in my explanation.

    HB had check points in their profiles which changed the profile when you leveled up.

    Last I checked WRobot did not have that capability unless you used LUA Events for "PLAYER_LEVEL_UP".

    Just my 2 copper......
