banned for using kicks (grinding) profiles

[ifairy]

Hi,

Just to let you know that I got definetly banned on my main account (since 2007) for using kicks grinding profiles. It was about 3 days ago.
I have 2 other accounts. One of them just got banned few hours ago for using another kicks grinding profiles (while leveling my dk because kicks quests profiles always get stuck, so it's not woth it when you re not baby sitting your bot).
This first ban is for 72 hours. I already know that when I ll start botting again I ll get a second life ban. I don't know what to do anyway. I won't play by hand anymore anyway. This game sucks damm too much. I ll just stop playing when I ll lose all my accounts.
So guys be careful cause I don't know what they have done but they catch us really quickly now...
I have been botting for only 5 hours today but it was enough to get a ban ^^

I tried to request several times, using the "i got hacked" excuse but all I got in return was "that's your problem, you shouldn't share your account". And they told me that they had the name of the bot I used. I don't know if it's true or not but they refused to answer to my questions.

grinding... when will people understand, you didnt get banned because you used kicks profiles, you got banned because you GRINDED, any grinding profile has a 99% chance of getting you banned because no sane person will ever stay in the same spot for 8 hours straight killing the same bunch of monsters, only a few cases like farming for alanis mount would make it worth doing, and even that can get you banned if you push it too much...

Yeah maybe but never had problems with grinding before Questing is the same result. BG budy as well (it was the reason of my first ban). And not to mention GB2 x)
So when you stop using those bots, what do you have left ? Play wow by hand ! And That's something I won t do anymore for sure ^^

Well, you can check every ban report made before the actual "gb2 banwave" (mop release to 5.2 release), the bans were mostly because people grinded nonstop, either that or got reported at bgs for constantly getting stuck and walking back with the typical unstuck behavior... also botting in dungeons is retarded, the bot behaviors are no secret to wows community, and any tank will notice a player mindlessly following him even if he walks back and foward for 2 mins straight (this happened to me and thanks god i was watching the monitor). Times have changed, you cant gather nodes nonstop like you used to do, you cant stay in the same spot grinding for 10 hours straight, you cant use dungeon/bg/archbuddy and leave it 100% afk, and this is not honorbuddy devs fault, this is because blizz just didnt care about botters before, they were focused on dealing with the chinese hackers, and with that problem gone, they are back on dealing with the botters, putting more resources on it than ever before. Golden era of botting in wow is over, botting smart wont guarantee not getting you banned now, so if youre going to bot at your own risk, like youve allways done since you started using the program, you should avoid anything that increases the chance.

Conclusion : buying a bot is not worth it !

Offtopic, but when was the last time you saw a BG only ban? I don't think I've ever seen a perma ban from BG botting alone, there was always a "well I ran a grind profile for a little while etc". Currently gearing out a 4th alt via constant BGing. I'm not using the other bot bases anymore

Not to think about rotation or addons while playing with a twink is enough. You can go afk in the boring LFR Patchwerk fights. You can surf, read ab book, watch a movie. Sometimes you have to move a little bit by hand, thats all. I can do that much longer as if I?d play on my own.
I?ve a job. 25 bucks is nothing, time is all.

True, but I got this got it anyways because I don't have time to do everything by hand.
HB has been the best investment I have ever made. If I get whacked...oh well, i knew the consequences before start using it.

BEST INVESTMENT EVER!!!!!
