Should Simba/SMART Change the Tab Key?

Simba/SMART always enters TAB before it lets you click around to readjust your bot. I don't know about you guys, but it really feels suspicious to me. Should Simba change keys to a non-ingame key so it's not so suspicious. All Jagex will have to do is count how many times somebody presses Tab and seeing that they haven't been having a conversation yet still pressing tab would seem out of place, raising flags.

They can't ban you because you pressed Tab a couple of times..

1. You were obviously botting.
2. You didn't have any conversation for the extent of your login, yet kept pressing tab.
3. Your mouse mysteriously went into hyperspeed and shifted to the disable smart box.

I agree completely. I've thought that this was suspicious since I started using Simba.

@the guy asking about the Tab-thing. That's what smart uses to gain and release focus. It alt tab's into the game so that's why it shows that "You haven't received any messages to which you can reply" thing.

It's not bannable or anything as that'd be stupid for jagex to ban over since some players actually do alt tab to the game. It's actually been like this for literally since the beginning.

I thought I removed that bit in v7.0? Hmph, maybe not.


Offering some old text/quote in attempt to help insight past conversation.
iirc - there was another thread somewhere talking about it too; however couldn't find it for the moment.

It's used to activate the client, so unless you find a new way of doing it, it won't be done.
