Is Roboform considered a automated entry?

Is it consider a bot or robotic entry. I seem to see in Rules more and more that they are not allowed. Is this something new?

What is the exact verbiage that leads you to believe they mean form fillers?

Roboform

It's a form filler, nothing more. Most sponsors get that and don't consider robo "automatic entry" - they are referring to "bots" or programs that enter FOR you.

lwaxana:

A "bot" is an automated program that can be used for manipulating numerous email addresses, often for purposes of fraud. Sometimes cheaters write scripts that enter contests multiple times using many different email addresses for one person. The existence of bots is one reason why so many sweepstakes sites use "Captcha" code (words, letters, or numbers that you have to type in), so that they can make it difficult for non-humans to enter.

However, some do say it is a macro, and therefore not allowed. Every person has to make the decision for themselves on whether or not to use Robo.

Thank for explaining that. I was wondering how they would know that we were using RoboForm.

You are most welcome tdani85.

btw - Sponsors will either use a FLASH form or state "entries must be manually keystroked" if they *don't* allow form fillers
