Always a professional lurking somewhere, Good luck if you decide to restart the business

 

[carguy]

how the fuck do you monitor something like that?

 

[ryan12345]

wow, if this is true; sorry for your loss

Obviously you have enough overhead to start them again though

Hey, 800% return on investment is pretty ridiculous. I assume he'll be restarting

Sorry for the loss man, I've been thinking of investing 5-10k in bots/setups (perfect amount of unused space in my attic to house all the comps, and nice a quiet as well) but haven't got around to it. Glad to see someone's made some decent dollar though.

Out of interest, what was the timescale for the return?

Edit:

as you can see the bots were monitored 100% of the time as stated (always someone watching), not that hard to do it as long as the only issues are stucks and not mass Auth issues etc.

I didn't mean it like that, i mean the amount of effort involved in getting items off those accounts, making auctions, etc. I had 7 accounts going, and even with high item scores it was a pain in the dick to list auctions every day.

 

[ryan12345]

^ with that many bots, it was probably all goldfind

didnt you read the post? always somebody supervising the bots... simple husband and wife team or two gay dudes is more than enough.

 

[JoeC]

dang 100+ bots with only 1 RMAH account? i figure youd need at least 5

 

[zippysticks]

Why post when everything is private? Is it to share how many bots you got or how much you made? If everything is private, for all we know, you could of got banned for sending blizzard a email virus Seems like this one isn't much awareness, just to brag I would say.

 

[hilft]

3 regions at the same time o_o, that's very cool.
when did the bans occur? today? last week? tell us more please

 

[shinavaka]

meh removed stupid question

 

[humble]

Sorry for your loss. Good news that you made a sh*t load of cash. Would you mind sharing how this setup worked out?

-How many computers were you using?
-How many people were you using for supervising?

 

[tretretre88]

how long u botting?

 

[drizzt001]

Pretty impossible to administrate 100 accounts alone. Need at least 10 Computers or a nice server rack and additional employes to get 24/7 monitoring.

First I am sorry for your loss.

Second I am assuming u used most of the method such as V P N, changing Mac and D3 registry?

I am building a computer that can run 8 to 10 bots with VMware. Can u tell me what your computer build is?
I will be very grateful.

That guy started posting 2 weeks ago on honorbuddy forum, and now suddenly he reports about 106 d3 bots lost, seems like bs to me.

I agree, I wonder if OP will provide us with more details like configuration of the machines HW and SW used, Zone botted etc...
