Considering all these Ban topics are exactly same as those on AA Forums...

... ArcheBuddy has been detected, which most likely explains why the AB Server is down until tomorrow.

Luckily, I haven't been using AB for a few days, maybe my Bot Account is till up.

I was still botting (planting/gathering after using house scanner/radar/autogrind during the day) when EU servers went down last night and still playing fine today, so if any detection happened it was after the patch

I am still able to log in just fine, and I use AB for 6-12 hours per day.

They did some sort of scan today around 230pm eastern on N/A servers and it detected AB and took out a handful of us that were running it at that time.

I did not play last 2 days with AB and got the BANANA today on EU server ingame without AB running

They made an announcement today that they banned a bunch of people. Gold sellers, gold buyers, even botters.

Later that day I discovered all the whining on the ArcheAge Forums about their Bans, then I checked this Forum to see if there is any announcement about AB being detected, to see the exact same topics here as well.

My conclusion is that those whiners were AB users.
Also, if some specific users have not been banned (yet) for using AB, it does not mean it may or may not be detected.
