I've seen objects which can do this. Check out http://www.slboutique.com/index.php?p=buy&itemid=69063 and http://slexchange.com/modules.php?name=Marketplace&file=item&ItemID=78779. No macros needed.

I bought both those. They work for me. Some anti Idlers are downloadable programs that run in the background, while others make use of Script commands in SL. It depends on your taste hehe. I prefer it as a attachment but i have them all. The reason why you didnt notice it working is cuz it don't really do anything untill it notices youve been in away mode for a long time. One i found anoying cuz it kept PUTTING me in away mode every 10 seconds. >.>

anyway heres a couple more.

Use auto-it, or google for a free mouse recorder, which will let you play back and loop mouse movements. I've used something like that and it works fine. :p

Before i found these tools i used to use mousemove.exe from i think download.com. But it got rahter anoying after a while. :P

I use the anti idle tools for those times im on duty in the sim i work in and nobody is around to ask questions or talk to me. I tend to go play oblivion and idle.

I thought I was the only one! I have a 80mm fan that is missing three blades taped to the top of a psu with a mouse taped to the top of it. Make a hell of a racket, but it is an antiidler that works on linux!

Well, that was until I just bought the attachment....

Isn't this discussing cheating?

After all, the idle time out is there for a REASON, and to get round it is changing a way in which the game is meant to work.

You're hogging resources, lagging everyone else in your region, giving traffic that shouldn't be given, and most likely sitting in camping chairs gaining dirty money.

You should all be ashamed of yourselves. Pathetic.

Right click, go into edit mode. The end.

Enjoy your 4 cents a day, I'm sure you won't spend it all in one place.

In some ways it is cheating, but take this good example.

If your working on a project for someone that requires other apps like poser, photoshop, or a sound editor, You would have to keep switching back to SL every so often to keep from being logged out unless you had a anti idler.

Now heres how it would be cheating. Using your account as a camping chair zombie making money by doing nothing using a anti idler. This is something i shun. But people do it...

While in URU, when I had to run long distances i would wedge a Quarter in my keyboard to hold down the key. This is as much cheeting as going back to your car 3 hours later to feed the parking meter more money (the user who sent the exact same AR 6 times, you know who you are, please don't do it again, it's really annoying). So you cheet the meter maids (i wonder what they call guy meter maids? meter buttlers?).

My "unique" camping site reqires you to click on a ball, and then click on the corect button out of several randomly aranged ones.
One guy used a screen reader to read the text and then automate the whole thing.

Adding random misspellings would make it harder, but I decided not to bother since he did not sell it to anyone.
