just have a quick read if you know Japanese.

Basically they are saying 'strictly speaking custom browsers are violating TOS' although the focus is more at people messing with the game data (ie. the actual cheating)

Next post pointed out that user who acccess the game server with special program are causing high load on part of the servers, and they will ban without warning if necessary.

I don't know how KCV works, whether it's passively listening to information or actively acquiring information via API.

ie you can't be in the battle screen, formation screen, expeidition screen and construction screen at the same time while connecting to a normal browser. Does that mean KCV simply display the info you last clicked into those screens, or actively querying them from the server when you read them in KCV (thus generating more traffic)

But hey its a free country right? People who use custom browser know the risks and they are responsible for their own actions, even the creator had disclaimer clauses put in their website.
