Yes, me too, but there is no reason that anyone has to interact socially in this game, it's not a requirement. Just because someone doesn't interact with other players isn't proof or even evidence that they are auto-clicking or cheating in any way.

Big Brother says we are all guilty until we are either proven innocent or have enough money to be placed above the law...

One thing that I thought of earlier but didn't bother mentioning about auto-clicking is that it could be detected by it's timing signature. Most clicking programs or mechanical devices would not be sophisticated enough to have random periods between clicks the way a real person would so they can be detected by examining the timing and seeing nearly the exact same time between each click is a decisive test, real people will vary more than machines. There are some random auto-click programs out there but I doubt that any can mimic real human clicking well enough to avoid this type of detection.

Even if they are random periods, they’d be consistently random. You’d get a flat distribution of click intervals instead of a normal one. Humans don’t do that.

Kind of irrelevant unless their method of detection is by looking at clicking intervals.
