I've seen 4 of my accounts out of 16 got a ban today. They were never connected to each other. I'm not using a vanilla account trading with all, or trading directly between.

I'm looking for a professional who can write me good appeal letters for these accounts. Please send de a PM.

Edit: 6 accounts now

And are You still running remaining 12 ? Were all 16 on same ip ?

 

[lathrodectus]

Yes I'm still botting on other accounts. All is on the same IP.

And are You still running remaining 12 ? Were all 16 on same ip ?

plz stop asking the "same ip question". there is no way to NOT botting multi bots without using the same ip.

Why people keep saying, speaking even mentioning about the IP? I think you want to talk about is the machine MAC ID an not IP. 1 Network can connect many computers with 1 IP. If you search online you will see dorms with over 16 people playing WoW so stop with that noobness.

Back to the original post. It seems you did not perform any toehr task except the same over and over farm, buy, sell. I think it would be up hill trying to get them unbanned if there is no other activity like raiding, pvp, something.

But good luck, hope you get them back.

@Thang78 there is a way to change your IP using VPN and stuff. It is worth it? I see people using VPN and stuff getting banned more often, they say they get their account backs by claiming they got hacked. My personal opinion is Blizz can see different IP's within the network (dynamic IP), but different IP's from different locations raises a flag. My 2 cents.

 

[lathrodectus]

I always have some pvp activity on these accounts. They are all season 11 geared and I'm running a BG routine from time to time. Many of them also ex-raiders with some nice PvE background.

Damn, sorry to hear this. I guess you where reported then. Did you trade gold from a lvl 1?

 

[Eisenberg]

Yes, i know that many computers could connect to same IP BUT its much higher probability that multiple wow accounts on same IP are bots that with multiple wow accounts all with different IP, so i think its possible that blizzard might start to perform ip check when an wow account gets reported.

Edit - so first 4 accounts at 18:11, 40 minutes later 2 another, bet that if You dont switch them off Youll get ban on all, its obviously IP wipe.

Are you serious? Are you really serious? IP Wipe? Ok I m done here.

 

[Eisenberg]

Then how will You explain whats happened to lathrodectus ? Its just a coincidence that his accounts are closed one by one in short time ?

 

[lathrodectus]

its not an IP wipe, dont get to wrong conclusions.
I've changed my IP via restartign my modem and made sure its a different region. (yes my provider issues 3 different region IPs).
but its possible that they are investigating based on your IP once they get the conclusion .

From OP:

6.5)What honest percentage of time did you supervise your bot?
10%

7)How many auctions per day did you have?:
100

9)Was your account involved in gold selling?
Yes

 

[Eisenberg]

Dracoe, many ppl were doing this for months and never experienced a wave like this. Its possible that blizzard just started to care how long account is online & how many auctions does it make, but that is not explaining why people are losing their entire farms in one struck.

lathrodectus
so if i understand correctly, you have changed IP after first 4 accounts were lost, and after that they banned 2 more ?

LOL what is this wave you speak up? Do you know what a wave is? Is hilarious how you trying to prove your point on IP banning. Stop spreading this false rumor is not safe for you is not safe for any one. It affects all botters when one botter does stupid shit. I am starting to believe you are one of those botters that report other botters because you don't know how to compete. Enough said.

 

[Eisenberg]

If someone is trying to prove something desperatly it is You. And now I see that You started making unbased accusations, calm down dude, im just trying to get into bottom of whats happening... We have a wave which regards farming accounts, everyone can easily see it if he/she looks at pages 2-3 weeks old in this section of message boards, furthermore auction houses on most EU servers are practically empty, which means that probably many characters have been banned.

 

[lathrodectus]

@Eisenberg
that is correct. I've immediately shut down all the accounts and restarted my modem over 3 times until i got a different region IP. I restarted all to see the situation, and there was still 4 banned. After a while 2 accounts got disconnected and banned.
At this point I closed all accounts. I changed my IP again and checked just now and no more bans. I'm not botting with any of the accounts since I got 2 more bans.

PS: I'm still looking for some assist to appeal these bans.

If they are going to IP ban you, no matter if you change your IP you have been flagged when they ban your first 4 bots. So changing you IP doesn't make any sense or does it makes sense to you? Give it 24 hours without botting. If when you go back, you still have accounts, you know is not by IP.

 

[Eisenberg]

Did those accounts got many herbs & ores put on AH ? I suspect that they started checking all accounts which puts much stuff on AH.

 

[lathrodectus]

they are all putting a maximum of 100 auctions. But I dont think that is the only measure, I'm putting over 300 auctions each day with my main. Gems, Scrolls, Raw mats, sockets....

300 auctions on 1 account? Case Closed. They trace you.
