Hypothesis 1: All accounts were EU, it doesn't matter wheter it is SoR or Paid, mostly GatherBuddy users were banned.

Hypothesis 2: HonorBuddy is not detected, it is gathering that is somehow being targeted now. EZbot/Crawlerbot users have been banned as well!

Hypothesis 3: Blizzard has been taking very harsh actions against gatherbots during the last week, even long time experienced botters have been hit. => BE CAREFUL ABOUT GATHERBOTTING AT THIS TIME!
Click to expand...

1. "it doesn't matter wheter it is SoR or Paid" so you mean they have same banrate or??
2. "mostly GatherBuddy users were banned." So you say mostly GatherBuddy users were banned? Well I kinda thought so as 143 of your 145 bots were GatherBuddies???
3. "Blizzard has been taking very harsh actions against gatherbots during the last week, even long time experienced botters have been hit". I don't think that it's only during the last week man..
 
1) SoR Account or Paid Account: 2x paid account. Account 1 got 72hour ban and Account 2 got a 72 hour ban after appealing a perma ban.

2) EU or US: EU

3) Last time you botted (Be honest!): Account1: 25/04. Account 2: one day ago

4) Hours/Day you botted: 10hours ~~ / day with breaks and relogs.

5) Bot used (Gatherbuddy, BGbuddy, Questing): GB2

6) Custom Profile or Public Profile: Paid profiles

7) Have you been selling gold: Not on these banned accounts.
 
1) Paid-7 years old

Perma ban first offence.
 
4/8 on the same machine , got 3 returned.

1) SoR Account or Paid Account: Paid
2) EU or US: EU
3) Last time you botted (Be honest!): 18th of april.
4) Hours/Day you botted: 10-12h
5) Bot used (Gatherbuddy, BGbuddy, Questing): PB with Gatherbuddy
6) Custom Profile or Public Profile: All self-made profiles including PB's
7) Have you been selling gold: Just once on these.

Additional notes : the 4 who got banned were on "high" population servers, The other ones were on medium.
So i thought they might have reduced the "reports" threshold that was needed for an investigation to occur.
BUT i have an account that i know has been reported for at least 3 times, and it's not banned. It even had a 72h suspension like a month and half ago!
Some of those who got banned ,mentioned getting banned pretty soon on new accounts as well...

So i'm currently stumped..
No idea what they're tracking anymore..

Note #2: these just had their gametime added 4 days before the ban. all 8 of them. my other 7 bots on a separate machine/isp were untouched. Noticed quite a bit of those banned having the bans right after adding GTC.
