7/9 Accounts banned WTF some no RAF and no FARMING

[Keldorn]

Hey there,

i have 9 accounts and 7 of them were banned PERMANENT no 72 hours ban first - directly closed.

- 3 Accounts just doing auction house the whole day with thousands auctions (i have this many auctions since YEARS) - just Level 1 char (these accounts are from the blizz store with a normal gamecard!)
- 3 Accounts were raf-farm-accounts (i know those accounts wont last long maxbe 1 month)
- 1 Account was my MAIN-account with 2x 90's and some lower level characters - there were my professions - NO farming and ZERO auctions

What do you think? LMK

 

[Keldorn]

Oh and just to mention... the other 2 accounts are on an other name so the blizzfuckers just banned my accounts because of the same name?!!

First of all i think you should reedit your post based on this: http://www.thebuddyforum.com/honorb...orts/6336-form-gb-hb-suspension-ban-form.html
But as for your auction accs, you did thousands of auctions and it is nearly inevitable in that case that at some point they will get banned.
The RaF farm account, well how many hours did you botted on them / day? If 24/7 then .. hmm ... you know why they got banned.

Your main was involved in trading in any way with your auction/farmer accounts?

I see alot of auction accounts being banned. Unfortunately, a level 1 sitting at an AH all day long, there is nothing legit going on there. As you said previously, the RAF farming accounts, that's just a foreseeable end there. The MAJORITY of bliz botter bans don't come from program scans, or GM monitors, they come from players in realm. There is simply to many accounts logged in at any given time for bliz to trigger "monitor programs", or have GM's just sit there and watch your toon. (Not to say this doesn't happen, I know it does, just less often then people seem to think). The Majority of botter identification is by other players reporting you. The more you look like a bot, the higher the chance you run of being reported. Once your account has hit a report threshold, then you get flagged, and if any known "Bot Behaviors" occur during this flag period, then you are banned.

As for the sheer quantity of your banned accounts, some how there when connected. And because you where doing the AH botting, it is considered manipulation of the in-game economy, they will not give any warning, or "better stop this ban" before hand. They will simply shut down that account, and any account associated with it. If you where sending gold to that account, or tons of mat, logging in from the same IP Address, having the same b.net login, or any of the other ways your accounts where linked up.

It sucks to hear that man. The only advice I can offer is that you need to make your bots look human. Use a re-logger, use different toons, DONT bot 24/7. Customize your CC & Combat routines. If you see a ton of other botters using that same profile, (And we know how to spot other botters, we have all done it), do something different or even MAKE YOUR OWN PROFILES. Either way, the more your bot looks like bona-fied player, the less likely you are going to get reported and banned.

Linking of these accounts in any way can result in multiple accounts getting banned at once. There are plenty of factors that go into why you were detected and why everything else got banned. We know for a fact that Blizzard tries to find your entire network to ban it all at once instead of going at them one at a time and giving you a heads up to lay low.

sorry for your loss, but 1000s of auctions for years is Bull Crap. You realize any 'Goblin' will report anyone with that many auctions by default. You should learn to use UMJ and use totally different toons for different time periods.

I would say you earned enough player reports for a rep to take a close look at your accounts and usage. No other way to explain the suddenness and the breadth of the ban.

1000's of auctions = banned account.

ya few tips (not that i have been doing this long but have read alot about it.) don't do ah bot with low levels and furthermore if ur gonna do them have them limit auctions and only log on a few minutes every hour or two. don't bot all day long you need to atleast be offline for enough time to sleep i recommend 12 hours max. also use different battlenet accounts and trade between accounts as little as possible. biggest thing is dont be greedy dont expect to make a living off of this and be smart or you will lose more money than u make off it.

To be very clear:
The toon that sits at the AH with her 500-2000 auctions / day - for years - is NOT banned and with or without bot makes no difference because the way "I" did that is the same way the bot did it.
I use UMJ = UnderMineJournal for pricing of some items since some weeks, before i made every items price by hand and do it until now with most of the items.
I never used public farming pofiles - just my selfmade ones.
Combat Routines were all a lil bit adjusted every time.

My fault was that i felt safe because i thought IF i receive a ban on that accounts it would be a 72 hours ban at the end and i thought Blizzard nevers bans accounts just the have the same owners name.
7 / 9 were on the same name and the other 2 on an other name. 7 were banned - 2 not.

I received multiple mails where the clearly say: You used a bot - we KNOW that - because the WoW.exe / the program SCANS your RAM/CPU blablabla...
I know that this is bullshit but that is what they said.

Knowing this, they banned just only because the other accounts were under the same name and thats what i never thought.

Farming acc ban - ok its foreseeable
AH acc ban - really? bullshit
Main acc ban - greatest bullshit - no raf no farm 0 auctions

I know how they ban the farmers and i can handle it.


Anyways - thanks for all ya answers.
If your have more tips & tricks LMK

I just bought all accounts new and everything goes on so no great problem.
Ofc i will never use the same Realname... we will see -

I lost nothing i just won

Sounds not logical.

All accounts were on different Battle.net accounts.
Only those 2 had a different REAL NAME then the other 7 who had the same REAL NAME.

glad this guy got banned cannot stand people who bot ah
