EDIT: After writing a ticket Blizz changed the perm-ban to 72 hours and said it was caused by a third-party program.
Not sure if I'm gonna try to convince them I haven't used any third-party programs or not.

This is the 4th or 5th ban in the last 2 hours or so, since 10:00 uk time

I got lucky and only got 72 hours, but i find it weird, since i started botting yesterday morning, and never bought gold or had any auctions up

all i can say about this is "Collateral Damage" they banning the hell out of all now and i bet some % r normal people who dont even bot ..

it's all about botting wisely and 10-15hrs per day of farming isn't that smart.

Ban will come sooner or later.....

on how many accounts do you bot and how long a day ? did you had any bans in the last 3 months ?

Botting in Uldum = getting banned

Botting in Uldum = getting banned

This.

Throw in 15 hours a day and the ban-stick will find you.

most normal people don't play wow for 15hrs a day...and if they do chances are they aren't farming the same area for 15hrs and then sell everything afterwards
i have more accounts than i can count and I've only had one ban....my first account i used for botting i got lazy and complacent and let the thing run for about 18 hrs wham insta-ban no if and or buts and they refused to life it so i lost that account....you have to be smart about it

bot gatherbuddy 2 for 5 hrs then switch it to bg bot for 2 or 3 hours and then let the account rest till the next day, never use the same account to post to ah, mediated with a guild ect, and yes avoid uldam like the plague unless you can sit there and keep an eye on it 100% of the time

imo its all the mad ex-pirox users reporting us honorbuddys lol.. if you want to get reported, go to the best farming zone... uldumn
just spectulation but i noticed some fishermen targeting me as i flew by, i get the feeling thats what reporters do while they are trying to spot bots.
