Not sure I follow understand, region2. Grant it, I took a cursory look at that link, but it still appears that automated sniping is “banned” from Germany, only that it’s difficult to prove that a snipe wasn’t placed manually, unless someone forgot to turn off InstaMail.
Lordy knows what R**k has said but I guess he's making derogatory comments! I was just posing the question about Sniping in Germany on the off-chance that someone who actually knows something about it could chip in with an informed opinion!
