1)Were you using Honorbuddy, Gatherbuddy or both on the account? Both, but mostly Gatherbuddy around the time of ban.
2)Which version (and Beta or Release)?: Honorbuddy v2.5.8483.699 Release
3)If so, when was the last time?: The last time I had botted was a night before the ban happened. I had herb/mine botted for around 6 hours and then turned my bot off.
4)What profile were you using?: Megaroute by FlashlightHD, with custom blacklists to avoid spots where my bot would get stuck.
5)What combat class were you using? if None Just put Default then the Classname: Singular
6)What plugins are you using?: Anti Drown, Combat escape, Jumpy, No Movement and SVNUpdater
7)How many hours per day did you bot for?: I botted anywhere from 4-12 hours a day, but on average around 6-8.
8)What honest percentage of time did you supervise your bot? 40-60%
9)How many auctions per day did you have?: Not many. I sold a decent amount every other Tuesday, but none other than that. Most of my auctions would be put on Tuesday by my Enchanter, which did not use any mats or gold gathered from the bot, doing flips with small amounts of gold (10-30k) on a high-pop server.
10)Did you Use Any Other Bots, Hacks, or Mods? No
11)Was your account involved in gold selling? Never
12)EU or US realm? US
13)Is the banned account a Scroll of Resurrection or an actual paid account? Paid
Here is the email that I received as well, and I see many others are getting the same:

Offense: Use of Bots or Third-Party Automation Software
Blizzard has terminated this World of Warcraft license after identifying the usage of bots or other cheat software.
These programs (commonly called cheats, bots, and hacks) automate certain aspects of gameplay, or provide unintended advantages and abilities to the player. This type of cheating undermines other players' experience and severely upsets the balance of the game environment.
Blizzard reserves the right to terminate access for conduct of this nature, with or without warning, as noted in the World of Warcraft Terms of Use:

With all of this being said, if someone could PM me any useful tips on how I should go about my ban appeal, I would greatly appreciate it. This is the first time anything like this has happened to me, and I would hate to lose my Vanilla account, which I have put in over thousands of hours into. I can live without WoW for now, as I have been very casual lately and have many other games on my roster, but I am very hyped for Warlords of Draenor and it would mean the world if people who have gotten their perma-bans reduced this month would help me out. Thanks so much guys.
