Paleoquest - 3 avatars joined together to cheat?

[sunnyrio]

In Paleoquest, 2nd quest, jumping over rocks past the Loch Ness monster, I often see three avatars joined together jumping across very quickly and easily.  Is this some kind of cheat?  Perhaps only one of them has to hit the rock so they don't fall in?

They are using a follow script. It is technically against the rules and you can report it. The payout from PQ is so minimal though, LL isn't going to spend the money actively policing the location just to catch folks. So only way to actually get someone in trouble for this is with video evidence.

So are they actually glued, so only one has to hit the rock?

And why can't PQ detect it automatically?  I've seen such places detect me flying (accidentally), or using a script which makes me too fast (false positive).

If LL only implemented THIS then they wouldn't have to waste a ton of scripted overhead detecting all possible script enhanced cheating vectors.

Yip, the payout is absurdly low.  Although maybe if you can whizz through the game loads of times it becomes useful?
