AFK question - on Boats

[Spider6969]

May I ask what the reasoning behind not being able to AFK marco while on a boat is.
Please enlighten me. Fishing would be about 1 million times easier if I could AFK it on a boat, moving a few squares at a time.
:hmph:

because the rules state that you can only macro in a house you own.
If we made it legal to afk on boats we'd start getting complaints about other types of afk macroing not being legal as well.
Simply put, we have to draw the line somewhere and thats where it was drawn.

thank you. I fully understand its in the rules, thats why we don't do it. It just seemed wierd that a boat was the line. But thats ok, rules are rules.

Ok this doesn't really have to do with AFK macroing on the boat but does deal with macroing on the boat. Why is it when the boat is moving and you run a macro for fishing Because you do eventually get (There are no fish here) that the the boat continues to move and leaves the charecter stranded in the middle of the water?

Ok that lost me but still doesnt answer my Question. Is there a glitch with the boats?

tbh boats under sphere always have been buggy and probably always will :) on one version i kept falling out the bottom of the boat when it moved :P
