If you're using any sort of autoclicker you ARE cheating. :P Don't see why using a stupid machine is any less cheating that using a smart one is - it's just less efficient!

i'm just saying that instead of going through the hassle of programming a bot, you might as well bust out the javascript console and give yourself shitton of cookies.

Cookie clicker already had built-in javascript functions to help you cheat.

Well where else would you put an autoclick bot other than on the console? The whole point was making it quick and easy, right? :P

And giving yourself cookies is a completely different type of cheating. Autoclicking more efficiently is a difference in quantity, not kind.

Really, if anyone wants to use an auto clicker then that's fine, but it's definitely cheating. At least in my opinion. Stuff like Cookie Monsters and other scripts that just tell you information, I'm fine with, but when you're not even clicking the cookie, the essence of the game's just dead. So is its name.

Except that the game was designed for you to cheat... or shall we forget the old achievement you needed to cheat to get?

Heck to earn all the achievements you need to cheat and one of the basic achievements is an exploit.

I am not sure if I am joking since that seems to be an accurate description that the game had intended you to cheat, at least a little.

I think its more accurate to say that the game doesn't care if you cheat, and since there is no impact on others it doesn't even matter if you cheat.

This is why this:
Also, we need some sort of cookie guild mode, where you join a guild and it shows your total production and stuff. Bay12 cookiemakers unite!
probably wont happen

Do external autoclickers even get you many cookies?

EDIT: 100 cursors do about the same as 10 manual clicks per second, so I suppose an autoclicker is reasonably helpful.

(doubleposting so it doesn't get looked over)
Any temporary boosts you have, such as those from gold cookies, will go away when you close the window, even if you load a save from when the bonus was in effect.

Well, it turns out letting the grandmas form a telepathic hivemind was a bad idea. Who knew?

It's quite entertaining to read about the Grandmatriarchs' shenanigans actually.

There are upgrades which give your manual clicks a certain % bonus of your CPS as well, so it becomes even more profitable the more you click as more upgrades unlock.
