Basically I got temp banned about a month ago on all of my accounts, I deserved it. Not here to debate that part.

But I am looking to see if I am safe to keep multiboxing using binder as I always have. Im not really interested in losing my accounts, but im not sure how safe/how binder works as far as the GMs are concerned.

TLDR: Am I good to play multiple accounts with no other 3rd party tools that I am controlling at the same time using binder/dual send.

All binder does is read the USB HID data that your keyboard or mouse sends to the PC using standard Windows APIs. Once it detects that the state of one of the macro keys has changed it sends the appropriate command to Windower. There's essentially no interaction with FFXI itself.

The Send addon uses Windower's built-in IPC (inter-process communication) mechanism to communicate with other running instances.

Both are as safe as Windower itself is; you're not taking any more risk by using either of them.

Awesome, thank you so much Iryoku.

Was hoping I could catch your attention.

Concise answer, and was exactly what I wanted to hear.
