Banwave 10-11-2016 Discussion

[Pixea]

I have 2 acc, main bot ever day banned, and a farm, that a dont bot in 1 month, farm acc is fine.

 

[foam_follower]

I tire of the false info that people spout. They only ban the account that used the bot and accounts that receive items / gold (benefit) from those accounts. It's really that simple as that.

 

[Pixea]

My farm acc is fine, i transfer gold from farm to main, a month ago, and they ban only the main.

 

[rogeriocamorim]

What can i do now to start again? Still blocked with tripwire message. Will be updated any time soon?

Not so soon, they need to check how did got detected. Or you wanna lose the account ?

Since HB is detected this is not a simple "update" issue anymore , expect a long downtime my friend

Long or even dead. For me is DEAD, same history from 6 month ago... Blizzard ban lot od people and HB didn´t even have a clue what happend.

Banned on botting account for a year. Main who didn't bot banned until 2018 first time ban what a joke!

Blizzard track the programs that are running. Since they do not show any proffs they can ban you any time they wanna, even if you are legit.

Yes, blizzard can ban legit players and there are nothing you can do.

I also got banned on my main acc. No regrets i guess, but still hurts.
Does anyone here made experience so far contesting the ban? What is the best "excuse" to tell them? Saying that you got hacked, it wasn't you using bots or just admit and regret?

Please lift the tripwire. Thank you.

Here could be a huge financial benefit if the Buddy Team have acted faster with the Legion Buddy.
If Legionbuddy were out now they would have catched so many users from a big competitor regarding rotationbotting.

But right now it is just a race of time between Legionbuddy and the competitor to come out with the out of process rotation bot.

Right now it looks like the Buddy Team made a huge business mistake.

You can send them a e-mail, they will replay in some minutes telling that the decision is final and will not replay any more email.
They do not send proffs or anything. You are banned ou suspended and that´s it.

For them this is good, if you wanna play, pay again.

Please lift the tripwire. Thank you.

???? Lift you mean, turn on?

Miss my buddy Underratedpost.
Where is he when you need the comforting explanations on how tripwire function always saves us

 

[Frnge]

21 Accounts banned
Even bank accounts who didnt use HB got wavebanned?!

Thanks Trump!

The thing I will miss the most, is using your gathering profiles!

 

[frosticus]

Our team issued this suspension only after a careful review of relevant evidence. Our support staff will not overturn this penalty and may not respond to appeals

 

[Xarian]

Just do that damn Legionbuddy atleast.
Stop keep updating shit that can be so easilly detected.

Work on HB only after doin some light undetectable bot first (like you say about Legionbuddy)

If you believe legionbuddy will be undetectable, you are kidding yourself. It will die a quick death, like HB the past 2 years

Any news on how hard the hit was??? did only a part of the community got hit or most of it??

 

[tannerxx]

On wow forums they are saying thousands of accounts were hit.

tripwire is active, so no, i mean turn it off for those who want to bot

As I can see other bots like The Noob Boot and WRBot are affected as well. So this was mass ban wave.

Ban - Suspension Reason

I believe that blizzard simply detects your honorbuddy attached to XXXX WoW for 3 reasons.

Reason #1: Blizzard bans/suspensions are too accurate.
Reason #2: Got 4 accounts.

1st Main 8 years acc, no bot, no ban/suspension, only 1 verification code e-mail.
2nd 15 days acc, botting, suspended, Questing to lvl 100 and then Raw gold farm 10hours/day,
3rd 15 days acc, botting, suspended, Questing to lvl 100 then Questing new reached lvl 80.
4th 18 hours acc, botting, suspended, Questing reached lvl 22.

So, Main account, 8 years old, not attached to Honorbuddy, no suspension.
New 18 hours account, only casual questing, no transactions, no gold farm, no AH: suspended.

Reason #3: All those people getting banned for using HB while actually playing or botting for 1-2 hours per day.

 

[cveks]

only bot they were not able to detect was Shadow Bot but they forced them via lawsuit to shutdown their business.

Banned till 10/05/2017. Got HB 29/09/2016, mostly dungeonbuddy and a bit gatherbuddy. Tried WQ last night, and woke up seeing that email.

1/1 bot banned today:

facts (if someone is interested in:

- used different machine (macbook with virtual machine win7) for bot & mainacc on my gaming pc
- used vpn on macbook / regular ip on gaming pc
- created acc 3 weeks ago
- botted on this account straight since 3 weeks for 8 to 16 hours a day
- leveled one toon from 1-110 (monk) and one toon from 100-110 (paladin)
- switch between those chars when they are farming (both herb / mining + one toon fishing)
- used paid gathering profile (alishas profitmaster)
- in a farming session, i switched automatically ever 10 to 25min the location
- Botacc got banned tonight, if went to check the bot in the morning, HB plus WoW was closed and i got a email from blizzard with a 6 months ban.

The good thing:

- i was skeptical... to skeptical to invite the botting toons to my guild and/or share those farmed mats and the earned gold with my main. so there is absolutely no connection between this botting toons and my main. my main survived.
