Some people got a 7 day suspension and as a result Redbot, the creator of Redguides talked to Daybreak about the problem and changed MQ2 so that innocent people weren't getting suspended again. This wasn't them trying to detect MQ2 but rather something else and MQ2 users (as well as some Isboxer users) got suspended. Most of the time they are being irresponsible, like leaving their characters on all night but once in the last 5+ years of me using MQ2 I saw Daybreak change their detection methods and it hit multiple innocent people.
By usually I mean that sometimes Daybreak will decide to suspend people on a whim, out of the tens of thousands of MQ2 users I typically see a number I can count on one hand get suspended a year. This page here is going to go through all of the reasons (I think) you should use the Redguides compile of MacroQuest 2.įirst off, you usually will not get in trouble for using this software unless you use it irresponsibly.
MQ2 is built for EQ and it enhances the game in basically every single way. Isboxer is good at what it does, it helps you box and broadcast keys to each character but it's not Macroquest. Macroquest 2 is the best third party software you can get for Everquest.
