I can speak only by own experience on these numbers:how many account you bot in the same computer now? seems you bought a new coputer.
i bot 3 account in 1 computer, a bit afraid to do more![]()
So far have triggered "nearly instant" ban, aka got banned in 2 hours after I turned on 7x gather bots on single machine (physical) by mistake. Before that, they were running shifted on HBRelog schedule 3x - 5x at the same time.
But keep in mind those interesting facts:
- Blizzard banned those 7x just because they were running in the same time + same machine. Know this, because one of those was old account, frozen from several months and just renewed sub+started botting with the others.
- Meanwhile on the machine was 5 other veteran bots (3-4-5 years old botting accounts) +1 non-botting main, which were doing other botting activities, which are considered non-botting for profit - dungeons, testing accounts for questing profiles, running dailies etc. (I usually keep 4-5 accounts, which bot questing+dailies for professions only, they are all with maxed professions usually, and they are fed from the gather accounts for max profit!) and neither of those got hit. (ofc they were hit in the banwaves, but its another story

At that personal "banwave" I believe I was hit by automated script, not manually banned by GM - because no side account got hit and no guild bank was harmed, contrary to the last Manual investigation vs me several years ago when they closed my old Scarab Lord main, plus all other trade/safe accounts, connected to my guild bank.
