Constantly getting banned. Please help!

[Vanhorne86]

I'm not exagerating when I say I've had around 50 accounts banned I literally don't understand what's going wrong and how other people don't get banned this much. The email is always the 'abuse of economy' one yet I farm the stuff and send it to a different account therefore no auctioning or trading. The account I sell the mats on has never been banned. I started off botting for 8+ hours, got banned a lot so cut the time down. I now only leave them on between 4 and 5 hours, I just gather herbs and ore in Jade Forest at the moment. I've tried different combat classes, I've tried different profiles, I've tried plugins that whisper back (none of which ever worked and now they seem to not exist), I've even tried making my own profiles and I still got banned. This has cost me more than it's worth botting and is very frustrating as no one seems to get banned as much as me! People must know something I don't about how to stay off the radar. Now my accounts that I've managed to get back (around 3) have black marks on them and will definitely be permanently banned if it happens again. I buy RAF's with gold from the Chinese which keep getting removed for the last couple of weeks. The emails I get back from Blizzard always ask for the 'ID showing the name that the account was originally opened with' which I don't have as I bought these accounts at level 80 and changed the names on them. I'm in beg mode right now, someone must be able to help me

Sorry for your losses. Only thing I know, from browsing the forums for a couple years, is that when someone has a large number of accounts (20, 30, 40, 50) and starts to get banned, they keep on you like stink on sh*t and nothing you do (masking IP, diff mac address, etc) seems to stop the bans from reoccurring.

Try swapping to a different main account. Seems to be the only link

Sounds like you're buying SoR accounts - which all get banned pretty quick.

I would try leveling your own accounts from 0 those bought accounts may be flagged allready for botting and the person getting rid of them for that reason. I have botted for about 3 years with only one ban that was over turned.

I don't understand how, if you are this into botting, you aren't aware that the entire recent phenomenon of "buy gametime from RAF, buy frozen accounts, buy SoR 80s" etc from various chinamen is ONE HUNDRED PERCENT USELESS. You don't have to bot, Blizz detects and bans them no matter what. there is a reason these accounts costs like $3, they are useless and can get your main banned.

If you really want to get into botting cleanly, buy your own accounts and use HB to level them via RAF. only takes a few days.
Then don't use gatherbuddy for over a couple hours, preferably 60-90 min then a break. if you have multiple accounts you can chain them in this manner

if you are greedy and keep botting 18 hours a day, you WILL lose them, and pretty quick.
no humans gather herbs and ore 18/24 hours and nothing else, and blizz doesn't tolerate it.

don't buy RAF and see what happens... otherwise they could be tracking hardware ID or IP address if you've had so many accounts banned which they definitely do if it's a guy whose had over 20 accounts.

SOR accounts +RAF time= Ban. Others might be getting away with it now, but blizzard will eventually catch up on them. Use your gold to buy wow keys instead of SOR.

i try do little research to analyze how bad is the ban situation atm and here what i do these past 2 weeks :

-bought 4 original cd key from a friend in US at game store ( no risk involve )
-activate the 4 cd key in a friend house with a very clean IP adress,never been used for any mmo or games in that IP ( no risk involve )
-use a questing buddy about 4 hours a day until level 20 ++ or 30 then go for manual leveling 2 hours ,then log ( little bit of risk here , im using a bot )
-doesnt do any trade , profession or and item supply to main or g bank or any of those things at all

RESULT :

last night i got e mail 4 of em was ban for abuse of economy

I have been botting for years on 20+ accounts and never been banned I say your doing something wrong even with a different IP your Computer Mac Address is the same, I run each WoW on different V P N's and VMWare

I bought 5 accounts , 2 collector edtions ( attached to main account ) and 3 other for boting that made other bnet account , all got banned after i added RAF GAMETIME , since i used my real name i sent ID and they unbanned ( not lifted , just unbaned ) and i bought 1 month gametime ( WITH GOLD ) , im boting 24/7 on several accounts and sending mats to my main account ( 2000 auctions day ) and dont have any problems , IM EU BTW . I even boting on main account ( archelogy ( got the freaking mount after 1 mount 24/7 ) and the collector edition im mining 24/7.

atm i try to do test again , like your tip i send the key to a different friend ,different pc , IP , and 2 accounts , each of them will be attach by 2 different ***, im not using VMware atm becasue in my opinion its not that nessecary since my friends pc and IP are never being used for play any games / wow ever,,so lets see..if still getting caught again i really need to get a new aspirins to figure how to bot safe at least for this month lol

Thanks for all the replies, I'll stop using the RAF's and if I need more accounts I wont use SOR. I find it so weird that my 'seller' acocunt has never been banned even though all my bots have always posted everything to it. And I've tried a V P N before (hide my ass it was) and got constantly banned and after many phone calls to Blizz just decided not to use it as it always flagged on their system, if there's a non detectable V P N, that'd be very useful if anyone knows of one. Fingers crossed I wont get banned again, only got 3 active bots left!

you might consider the possibility that blizzard lets your sell account live to catch your bot accounts.

 

[jrositas]

Set up your own V P N on a cheap VPS. OpenV P N is free and works well!

I use ***'s for work .I use both (Hide my ass) and (Strong ***) .Strong is excellent btw. When you use a *** like HMA they recycle a lot of there IP's i would suggest using Whatsmyiplocation (google it )website it tells you if the Ip has been flagged for spam or if a *****/*** is detected . Not all of the Ip listed on HMA are usable so you have to check .

 

[osdosdosd]

you do a lot of transition with a lot of char have one char to farm and put in ah other to play . I'm sorry 50accounts banned you are kind like stupid

 

[Cloudy]

I farm the stuff and send it to a different account

I think thats the Problem. Blizzard tracks this. I also had this problem, but then i decided to send the stuff to the same account. Now i sell with many different bank toons...i had no problems till now.
If you send it to the same account it looks more like you farm it only for you. Thats a behaviour blizzard seems to tollerate, not always but mostly.
I never used ***s or different ips but i also dont bot to make that much profit to make botting to my job.

 

[Vanhorne86]

Just wow and lol at banned status
