As a bit of a forward:
I'm a business owner with a limited background in html coding (nothing special I know). I spent a few years doing graphic design, and now spend my days doing concept design for my companies marketable internal devices/software. I am "newish" to programming, about 4 months of active self teaching, so, many concepts elude me still, though my aptitude is definitely not lacking (finding and resolving the problems are easy, downloading all of the language to my brain is the limiter.)
^ that all to say, "I've got an idea for a fairly intricate plugin that I believe is more than needed for bot user safety".
Facts:
Resolve:
Build a plugin for DemonBuddy that
Example of an average day with concept plugin:
Details and Thoughts:
The project would be no easy undertaking, as many of the components are currently separate plugins that either do not exist, exist but do not work, exist but do not work well. Some of the ideas are brand new, some are not, but if this plugin did, in fact, exist we would be automating Diablo in such a way to be as safe as possible.
From what I've read on the forums, people do not get banned using any of the Buddy products unless they are doing something out of the norm. A plugin such as this would make the botter look as normal as possible while still maximizing your GPH, thereby reducing ban likelihood while increasing your phat loots.
Now, to address "Resolve: 6". I saw this (external link: Blizzard Authenticator PC version - How to | TechiePortal). If you didn't follow the link, it's just an explanation as to how to build a simple PC authenticator. Basically, I was thinking... if one can grab the current authenticator values for something like this (and I've seen non-emulator versions) then would it not be possible to use this to log into accounts that require an authenticator for our relogger part of the plugin? I don't know. It's a thought though.
Lastly, I believe this type of plugin could eventually grow to work with webportals like "webstats" to allow for an active log of exactly what is going on, last break, current character, current profile, etc.. There may even be the opportunity to speak to the plugin to reset the process and such (think vacations when you cannot access the computer for several days/weeks.
These are my thoughts. I know currently the scope seems out there a bit, but I think there is a very clear need for such a plugin, and furthermore I believe there is an easy place to start, and direction to go from there. I'll be putting time into the creation of this, but if anyone wants to collaborate (or even take over with input from myself) let me know. I know there are some plugin/profile writers on here that are killing it right now with incredible stuff.

Facts:
DemonBuddy is the safest bot program for Diablo 3;
Most botters don't want to be banned;
Being banned is a serious GPH setback ( <<< hah duh);
Because of aforementioned most botters are careful of their "botting hours" and manually shut off/on their bots;
Botting 24/7, on 1 toon, in 1 area, 7 days a week is virtually the only way a "clean" DB user is going to get "caught".

Resolve:
Build a plugin for DemonBuddy that
1. Takes indiscriminate breaks via;
3. Haphazardly Changes Profiles (ie: Sarkoth 5 hours, NM Core 2 hours, Act 2 Goblin farm 30 mins, ZK 10 runs.)
4. Alters Lootrules (ie: when running NM Core [gold only], when running Sarkoth [all L, +60 Y/B, All plans, gems])
5. Catches all game disconnects and re-logs.
6. (Don't know if possible) Explained in detail section below.
7. Allow the user to alter any of the variables such as roughly how many hours in each 24 hours period to bot, parameters for break periods, type of breaks, AH searches, stash moving, gem creating, blacksmith creating, toon using, etc..
a. menu sitting;
b. town sitting;
c. stash reorganizing;
d. AH browsing;
e. logging out/in.
2. Occasionally Switches Charactersb. town sitting;

Example of an average day with concept plugin:
Day 1 [13h21m15s bot up time / 11h39m:45s bot down time]
Day 2 [random bot up time / random bot down time]
06:00am - User logs into Diablo 3; Sets up DB to run Sarkoth w/ a DH; Clicks start; walks away.
07:15am - Plugin idles in town for 2 minutes "playing with stash items".
09:22am - Plugin idles in menu for 13 minutes.
09:46am - Plugin changes profiles to NM Core; Lootrules gold only.
11:04am - Plugin idles in menu for 7 minutes; Browses AH for 2 minutes (slowly to avoid issues).
12:13pm - Plugin logs user out of Diablo 3.
05:39pm - Plugin logs user in to Diablo 3; Switches toon to Barb; Changes profile to custom Butcher Profile.
06:20pm - Plugin switches to Monk; Changes profile to Sarkoth; lootrules +60 Y/B, All L, Plans, Gems.
07:47pm - Plugin idles in menu for 1 hour.
08:47pm - Plugin switches to Wizard; Changes profile to Act 1 xp/queen.
09:40pm - Plugin switches to DH; Continues Sarkoth.
11:13pm - Plugin idles in town for 45 seconds
01:01am - Plugin logs off.
07:15am - Plugin idles in town for 2 minutes "playing with stash items".
09:22am - Plugin idles in menu for 13 minutes.
09:46am - Plugin changes profiles to NM Core; Lootrules gold only.
11:04am - Plugin idles in menu for 7 minutes; Browses AH for 2 minutes (slowly to avoid issues).
