You see, Razor is not allowed on OSI. If administration will somehow know that i'm playing with Razor - they will ban my account.
One of the way for hunting players that use razor - is journal scan. They somehow can read what is inside my game journar.
And what they will find there? Razor: "QLT"

Let's say that Razor is not the only one UO assistant program. There's still UO Assist - but it's not free. Razor is free. Assist is allowed on OSI (i think you know why), not Razor.
So tell me what is so cheating about Razor and so good about Assist? Money? )
I know why OSI say that Razor is a cheat program. But do you think the same?
It matters what OSI and Zippy think 
Thats just so people would stop asking how to connect to OSI using Razor. If you would have read the whole thing, Zippy says he is not responsible if you get banned or whatever. Just because you dont want to fork over the $15 or whatever it is for UO Assist doesnt mean that Zippy should change his program for you (which you got free so you dont really have a say in the matter). Anyways, Ive never even heard of them being able to look at your journal because that is all client side...

There is no such thing as a "Journal Scan" that is a myth. There exists no functionality for the client to send Razor messages to the server (and even if this existed, Razor could just block it). The OSI staff can do a server side scan of all things that you said or that were said around you, but this only covers messages sent to the server. Since Razor messages are never sent to the server there is no way Razor could be detected using this method.
That said, I would like to point out that if such a thing existed I would gladly update Razor to circumvent it. I don't have a lot of qualms about breaking OSI's rules. Why? Because OSI has given UOAssist a free monopoly on the "legal" assistant market. UOAssist is approved "UOPro" software, but OSI since discontinued the UOPro program so it is not possible for Razor to become UOPro.
Currently, I do not know of any way in which OSI can detect players using the most recent version of Razor. I have not heard of anyone getting banned from OSI for using Razor in quite a while. (Though, people don't often tell me when they get banned, and they do not always know why... so that may or may not be a useful metric.)
