Bot Detection: How it happened...

[mikley]

sounds like you know the consequence to your actions and still come here repeating the offending behavior.

you will not get special attention here. move along please.

I was only posting a theory in a forum that wasn't started by me, basically aimed at compiling user information to better help us understand. Rather than shut me down with the "move along" you should have removed the topic before we could post. Your not helping their case. I was only pointing out a theory that I haven't seen yet Sir. Anyways we all know why we were technically banned. We were bottling. But the question still remains, was it detected or were we sold out?

yeh bro, cause that 25usd entry fee to the forums would totally shut down blizzards access to the forums. you should run for office. or just run....away

Frosticus, you are all over the place. You need to settle down a little bit. I see you in a bunch of threads getting hostile. Most people's opinions on how, when, where, and why aren't accurate.

I think we all just need to chill out. The bot got detected, happened all the time with glider. They might have had the ability to do it for a long time and we never knew. We will probably never know. Either move on, buy another key, or wait 6 months (like me).

Lets try and figure this out. We need to find some consistencies between players and why some people were banned, and others weren't. Then we can rule out whether it was program detection, specific bots within the program, or statistic gathering.

1. Were you banned?
2. When was the last time you used honorbuddy?
3. What did you use honorbuddy for (arena/bgs/leveling/garrison/farming etc.)?
4. Did you use combats routines or kickbot for PvP?

Close this thread, everything your asking for is being posted all over the ban section, what people were doing, what they were using, what they were botting etc. Stop making pointless threads please.

Nelie223 is spot on. Go collect the metrics from the Ban Reports. Its why they're there.

Thread closed.
