Before explaining, I would like to add, that I have been botting for many years, even before Honorbuddy was out. I know my shit, I use different VPN's on my accounts, and I used 5 different scripts on each individual account.
Bot programs; such as Honorbuddy. Is detectable. No matter what script you run. / I believe they can see what programs that is being used on your PC.
Before saying this is just a theory, I agree, but I have never seen a banning wave like this. I am 99 percent certain, that getting caught right now, is like VAC-ban system in CS.
/ALL MY FIVE ACCOUNTS HAS BEEN BANNED./ DIFFERENT SCRIPTS. /DIFFERENT IP'S/.

It's a well known bit of information that Warden (Blizzard's anti-cheat tool) can see your processes at any given time. Normally I wouldn't jump to belittling someone in your situation, but honestly it sounds like you jumped into this uneducated and not researching beforehand. One of the best tips I was told was to rename the folder HonorBuddy resides in on your computer, rename the .exe file to something less conspicuous (steamwrapper.exe for example), and don't run the bot for longer than you would normally play for.
If you normally play for 3 to 4 hours a day, but you run the bot for 8 to 10 hours while you're asleep then to Blizzard it looks like you played a lot on that day. If the 8 to 10 hours are BG farming for example then to Warden it would log all your movement as being very similar in each BG if not exactly the same in each one. Then the 3 to 4 hours would be dynamic movement, objectives like flags and points, etc. If you really think about it Warden doesn't have to look that hard to find the botters.
It's all about how smart you are using the tool. In this case you weren't very smart with it. No need to argue with people online, just admit your error and move on. Be smarter about it on your next account and good luck.
