5/18 + unbotted main || Will update thread as the bans roll in more.

5/18 + main @12.12, 13/13 @12/17

Update: 5/18 + main @12.12, 13/13 @12/17

18 bots, been running since the main big ban on December 18th.

Notes:
-RYAR (never used D3Starter)
-Trinity + QuestTools
-24/7 since December 18th
-Same IP
-Running when they got banned
-graphic disabler (this might be the cause if no one else gets banned)
-US botting only


Only thing i'm really curious about is why my main got banned. Despite running along side my bots and even when they got banned, my main has never been banned.

did this just happen in the last hour or so ? I just got hit , and closed everything done . logged in a checked via webpage

 

[dragonxdraco]

happened within the last 20 minutes, when i saw some ban notices..i just stopped everything. Checking everything now

 

[dragonxdraco]

update: the rest of my accounts got banned. holy.

happened in the last 10 minutes or so. same conditions as other accounts, looks like they're really cleaning house. or at least my house. haha

was fun though, made about 10-15k total. stay safe and have fun everyone.

@dragonxdraco sorry to hear that bud knock on wood the rest of mine are still going strong

Losing your unbotted main is harsh. How often did you transfer gold / gear to ur main?

Sorry for ur loss.

@Defqon, From Aug 2012 to Dec 2013, i transferred gold and items (dropped on floor) to my main and sold on RMAH. no ban ever until June 2013 (non botting reason) and this post date. I transferred gold and items randomly. Sometimes it'd be 2-4 days, sometimes a week.

I started botting in August if i recall correctly. My main account was banned twice since then.

From August 2012 to June 2013, my main has survived despite losing bots in numerous random bans including the ban wave on december 18th.

I had fun with the gold dupe on June 2013, tried to siphon off gold and items through multiple accounts, I lost my main and all accounts associated.

I added a new key (I did this because i don't believe Blizzard actually looks through history of your accounts and keeps you on some watch list)...this time, it lasted until the ban from this post. (June 2013 to Dec 2013). I just want to note that after the Dec 18 ban wave, I had 18 bots + main running since then with no ban until this post.

My Speculations:
1. graphic disabler
2. The multiple game creation issue that DB eventually addressed. I had my stuff on 24/7 with graphic disabler so i rarely ever checked on my bots.
3. I did accidentally leave my bots on during maintenance, so that might have flagged me.

Other then those things, I'm not sure.

 

[proe]

I can say that
#1 is false - never used disabler
#3 is false - the accounts that were banned within a week, there was no maintenance that week.
#2 I can't say for sure but all the accounts that I restarted and banned(80 or so) were after the last db update.

feel for you bro! atleast u had a good run with 10-15k profit !!

my 2 cents will i put to the bugg in DB wich created two games, think that blizzard might have noticed that there were alot of errors relating to the dubble start of games.

its just a guess, but thinks its as good as any!
