2x WoW on one OS - Does that work? Ban? Virtual Machine?

[go4e-moh]

Hey guys,

at the moment I'm running WoW on my Notebook and another WoW in a virtual machine. That works quite fine, but I got some issues with lags... Due to a missclick, I found out, that it's possible to start WoW 2 times on one OS, so my question is now:
- Will I get banned, If I'm playing 2x WoW on one OS?

And another thing is, that Blizzard should not see any connection between the 2 Accounts, because one of them is cheated and the other is fully played by hand... They never ran together on one computer, because the botted Account was allways played in the virtual machine. But if I start to play both on the same OS, there will be a connection...
- So I guess, if I'll get banned because of botting, both Accounts will be banned, is that true?
- Is it possible to get banned, because 2 Accounts are running on 1 OS AND are both "playing"? (playing = 1 WoW is played by Bot and 1 is played by me)

Greetings!

I dont think they know you running 2 wows in the same computer, at least I dont think so.

Right now I am runnin 2 wows in the very same computer... I hope I do no get banned lol

Play my legit account on the same pc while i run the bot acc in the background as long as there is no connection between them like trading gold or something there shouldnt be an issue.
Also if blizzard banned both of your accounts (even the one thats legit played) they would only lose subscription money and why would they do that

so you think blizzard does not use hardwarekeys and stuff like that, to control players?

edit: is it better to install WoW 2 times on my notebook? or does it work well with 1 copy of it?

 

[olivete]

They could, but if not wrong this is against the law, at least I guess it is for US.

again, they CAN ip ban you..
so its a possibility..
but im always running atleast 2 bots and 1 legit (playing by hand) at the same time, on the same PC.. never gotten my hand-played acc banned ^^

- according to the GM i spoke with, they have to treat every acc like diffrent individuals... even if you made serveral accounts with the same name (holder) they'll still treat each acc as an individual ;D

 

[olivete]

This individual thing I have heard from support too.

I've ran 4*WoW + 1*D3 on the same system, all of them ran by a bot. Blizzard doesn't care how many clients you run on the same system. The more the merrier since it's more money for them. You won't get banned because of that.

 

[magaicmutley]

Most people run multiple clients on the same machine, can't see how it would add any risk.

That might be a fancy way of saying no we wont ban your legit account.. but they will ban ALL your botting accounts, they even perma banned an account just for being in the same guilds as my botting accounts even though it never traded gold or even got to level 2 and left the starting zone.. it was used as a safeguard to withdraw gold from the banks but ended up being the demise of all my accounts.. "associating with exploitative accounts"
