Initially i blamed Kapy because he had similar colour (i played with him in frontline). Only when he complained that he have no con (and he even didn't ask for one) i started look at player list to find that there is three players with similar colour.
I would not be against that player who did this would get ban. It is even worse then team killing or griefing because everybody lagged and there was numerous pauses. And still he continue to do it many times.

Shno is innocent and (unfortunately) the auto llt script was not to blame for this. (Note the real culprit is likely to have been

wptr_007 who issued large amounts of orders and im sure the infolog has some complaints about it)

Auto LLT continues to be a pain though. Its happy to spam commands even *while 30 minutes behind*. I hate to be a broken record player but I think its time to use the widget disabler to disable it. The cost of the widget existing seems to far outweigh any user benefits it has existing.

This seems to put us as developers in a bad position. We can continue allowing it to exist at the risk of it proliferating and thus entering a degenerative state. It also is risking running into bad reputation here and risks social stigmatization. However using the widget disabler risks infringing on user choice and being seen as bad guys trying to take away people's widgets. (And we very well know some people would be glad to)

Would some-kind of command rate limiter work? Plus something to display user a message like "more commands are coming from your computer than allowed, will be limited, disable widgets to issue less commands". And if the user wants no to click to have auto LLT but not be able to issue commands, it's his choice...

For the curious, here's a quick (logarithmic!) breakdown of command volume over the course of the battle by player:

Derp, well spotted. That's what I get for manually grabbing names out of the startscript definitions in the demofile, I suppose.
