Chance of a repeat incident regarding LuaFoo/Gatherer

[lota7]

What are the chances something like this will happen again?
GatherBuddy banwave, and LuaFoo&rsquo;s Involvement ? Crockpottery <-link

Also, the risk of a repeat of patch 2.4.2 banwave where detection was coded into a patch and we didnt notice?
On Warden: May 20th ban wave: WoW 2.4.2 <-link


What security measures has been taken?
Is every patch being thoroughly scanned for possible detection by the devs?
How effective is tripwire really? Reading on those posts it seems warden has the possibility to negate the anti-warden detection and it has happened before.

I decided to start botting again after a long break, and so I purchased HB.
I'm gonna be botting either way, but a little info/discussion on these topics cant be wrong.

HB is safe - as safe as botting can be.

Ask Apoc,i am sure that he knows much about LuaFoo

Well HB/GB has been safe for the past 50 patches since 2.4.2 - why would it be any different now?
I can assure you that the dev team will never release it if they don't believe it is safe. So even if it isn't safe, you won't make a dev say that, as he will truly believe it is.

We should be fine guys, thats why the devs do a lot of testing before releasing, or beta-releasing. Don't sweat it

Yea that's true kickazz. Always comforting to know that
But then I wonder...when they test it, can they see if a "ban flag" is recorded by warden?
I'm thinking of LuaFoo incidents where people where they got flagged as early as in August 19 but banhammer didnt land untill 2 weeks or so later.
Did the devs take down gatherer when/if they found out warden detected em, or was it only after the banhammer they knew they were detected?

That being said, botting is always risky I know, but I still find topics on security and the game of anti-security, anti-anti-security interesting
Cheers for the replies
