About: Glider (bot)

An Entity of Type: software, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Glider, also known as WoWGlider or MMOGlider, was a bot created by MDY Industries, which interoperated with World of Warcraft. Glider automated and simplified actions by the user through the use of scripting to perform repetitive tasks while the user was away from the computer. This allowed the user to acquire in-game currency and level-ups of the character without being present to perform the required actions. As of 2008, it had sold approximately 100,000 copies. Glider was ultimately discontinued after a lawsuit was filed against MDY Industries by Blizzard Entertainment.

  • MMOGlider (oftast bara kallat Glider) är en programvara som används i syftet att automatisera spelandet av det populära MMORPG:et "World of Warcraft". MMOGlider hette tidigare WoWGlider, men på grund av en rättstvist med Blizzard Entertainment (nuvarande Activision Blizzard) så bytte de namn. Programmet använder bland annat s.k. "waypoints" och diverse tekniker för att automatiskt skicka runt karaktären i världen och utföra enkla uppgifter, såsom att döda NPCs eller samla ihop pengar. Att använda programmet strider mot World Of Warcrafts Terms of Service. Blir man upptäckt när man använder det kan man bli bannad. (sv)
