Hi,
please ask your questions here. So answers could be read by any HB user and are helpful for anyone with the same questions.
if you run 12 at the same time on the same PC, as soon as one gets banned, the rest will too.
if they are not logged in at the same time there are more ifs/buts/maybes
Not true. I've had 4 accounts running at the same time and only 2 get banned.
EVERY situation is different. Sure, all 12 of yours could get banned at the same time, or maybe not. No one knows for sure as people are speaking from their own personal experience.
Idd i had 4 accounts and only one got ban nad 1 ah account, next time i had 6 accounts and all 6 got baned and none auction account :s
To sum it up:
there is a slight increase in security if you run some of the accounts in a VM ... but as soon as the botting chars are in any way "connected" (same guild, maiing to same AH char etc) this added security is gone.
Let aside "detected honorbuddy ban waves" I never lost ALL accounts on a machine at once - and I never used VMs or VPNs
Legion accounts pay off quite fast (within days) so for me I go the road: maximum Bots on same machine instead of killing RAM/CPU Power with VMs.

^^truth. 350k estimated bans this year, while many were detection, all the rest were situational. 350k bans, 40k different stories about how they got banned, while only 1k were reported in the forums. ofc these numbers are very general, but they tell a story of the very small percentage of people who actually report their story. and then there is only a tiny percentage of those that will answer questions such as yours in the forums. then divide that even further by dividing those who want to help from the Chicken Littles in the community.
