BanWave and now what? Throw the Towel [OR] Will the tide calm...

[ogg]

In case it's not clear turning the bot off means I also CLOSED WOW, I DON'T BOT UNSUPERVISED.

But do you think they will actually loosen the lease on the banning, because i've never experienced a "banwave" or is this the first time this has happened to this extent?

do you even know what a BANWAVE is?..... that means if there was a banwave we would all be banned bg botting is risky ok so the bot is not detected. you got a ban by a player report and then a gm banned you while you was not on pc dont bg bot

 

[Travismbrountas]

You all are just instigating, NO ONE, KNOWS. NO ONE, don't listen to ANYONE. What do I BELIEVE though? It's detected, as said, they're just taking small ammounts at a time to make profit slowly.

2. Your answer is irrelevant
3. Really....

Dear Buddies,

I have been a leeching member for a while laying low in the shadows, however been botting for about a year or two. I botted on about 9 of my accounts and for some friends, however last week luckily I only got a 72 hour suspension on my Main account that I was botting all night unattended in ICC 1-80 RAF grind, was risky but never got banned for botting. When i woke up was banned, things happen right? logged on a level 80 account with a rogue started BGbuddy after 20 mins literally my account was banned. Something was suspicious...suspected a banwave not confirming, but I do confirm that Blizzard have stepped up their bot sniffing in some way no doubt.

____________Bottom line____________

Will you continue to bot normally, or will you quit botting, or do you think the tide will calm and botting will be "safer" like the past months or will it continue to have a tight leash and ban spree going on, Thoughts and contribution appreciated

There is no banwave and Blizzard did not "step up their bot sniffing." Stop spreading misinformation.

I've been saying this a lot, it's player reports.

I can confirm its not all player reports. I've tried everything. I had vms each there own ip, ive tried buying a new pc and internet connection and they consistently ban my gatherer almost exactly 1 week after they start using gatherbuddy and I already have fastest speed mount and my profile has player detection and reacts somewhat like a human or logs off. They are detecting something im 100% sure of it. I just have a hunch it might be the waypoint patterns.. I was lazy and didn't remake my old mining profiles so I cant rule that out yet.

TBH i was locked out for 72h for using 3rd party tool, that is HBrelog which was active during server maintenance, so it was my fault. I had, and still have, epic botting sessions for 24hours sometimes even 6-7days straight with bot supervising 10-20% of the time.
But i do tend to keep away from areas where might be large population of people, simply cause you can easily notice a BoT when you see one, no matter how good he is, all you need to do is to keep close to him for few mins and thats it.
now, bots that i never used, nor i dont plan to use simply cause i heard and read, not confirmed bad comments on are DungeonBuddy, BGBuddy and Archaeology bots.

I do use Grind bot, but only during nights when population on server is low.
