I've used Honorbuddy for less than 1 month and got a 72 hour suspsension including a final warning. I recently started using instance buddy and that's what got me suspended I think. I was tanking the instances, and it's just so obvious that it is a bot while tanking because it doesn't take shortcuts and people are complaining that the tank should pull bigger groups of mobs which it obviously doesnt do.
I was supervising my bot when I suddenly got a wow error, then I tried logging back in but it said I was suspended.
It was all worth it though 6 out of 7 85's I leveled them up to 90 with the use of Honorbuddy, also I decked out 3 characters in full honour gear.

I would recommend not using instance buddy as it's an easy way to get flagged and I think that's the sole reason I got banned. I never did any gathering, whatsoever. I did some fish botting, grinding and Kick's questing profile now and then.

I have to add though that for one month, I was online almost 24/7. 10-12 hours playing myself and the rest botting. It's my main account.

Greetz,

can't imagine why anyone would use instancebuddy. you are BEGGING to get reported multiple times. I mean why would anyone stick a dumb bot, that can't talk in chat, into a 30 min instance with FOUR other humans all of whom are going to be paying extreme attention to everything the bot does since it's a tank? at least go as dps.

All my 6 characters that I leveled from 85-90 were leveled using Kick's profile 89-90 Townlong Steppes, 87-89 Kotapeak grind profile, 85-87 grind profile Amberflies Jade Forest if I remember correctly. I can recommend this way of leveling since I don't think these got me the 72 hour suspension. Since I had 7 characters on level 90. I wanted to get all classes at level 90. So I started leveling 3 new classes to 58, with kick's profile 1-58 this went perfect no stuck whatsoever. I also felt like Blizzard really didn't care and I felt like I would never get banned.

Then when I hit 58 on those characters and tried out Kick's profile for Outland it just didn't work for me. I have no clue why but the questing sucked so I decided it was time to try out instancebuddy as I had never used it before. This was the worst thing I could have done. While doing instancebuddy I was supervising my bot 95%, alt tabbing back to wow checking whisper, party chat, typing in party chat etc. I noticed that people wrote "I think our tank is a bot", I was supervising the chat at that moment and immedieately replied back "lol wtf? I'm not a bot" and then they usually replied something like "oh lol sorry, you totally acted like a bot". So I thought I was all good, but apparently people still reported me and that's what got me suspended.

However, I think it's perfectly safe to use instancebuddy as a DPS while supervising WoW like 95% and writing randomly stuff in chat. It's definitely not a good idea to tank or instancebot as a healer even if you are typing in chat etc. since it's just so obvious. If you know how instancebuddy works it so easy to spot other botter though, I think at least 1 other player in the group was always botting. It usually was a DPS, since they just follow the tank all the time.
