Funny thing when looking at the ban reports.

Also, no offense, but when it comes to anything about bot safety/bans I take everything from developers with a grain of salt. You have a product to sell, and of course you're not going to get too in-depth about the risks of bans. I'm not going to go to Marlboro if I have questions about the safety of smoking cigarettes. I understand your position on the matter, but I'm just telling it how I see it.

You dont follow the herd. I never have and I do make extra cash off my bots. I dont have the same crap everyone else farms and bot quite smart with the small things that could towards blizzard thinking that your account is a active HUMAN account. As I said ealier you have to know the secrets of the trade, Just like the secret of the AH in WoW.

I'd like to think that I bot smart, but eventually they still catch on. Take the last two bans I got; I was botting for 3-5 hours a time, 2-3 times a day with random breaks here and there. I would talk in guild/general chat. I never posted too much on the AH at a time, and split up the rest into multiple private buyers (no more than 15 stacks per person per day). I ran heroics, bgs, and lfr. All gear was gemmed/enchanted. These accounts lasted two weeks at 90 before perma-bans. I also never sold my gold from these accounts, it was deposited into my alt's Gbank and sold from a battle chest account (which is still active). Maybe I'm doing it wrong, but I honestly can't see an account lasting that long and still making a worthwhile profit.

Then they have not been botting for 5 years cause that Gatherbuddy ban when it was detected in 2009 would have gotten them.

Hi, Phelon,

Gatherbuddy1 and Honorbuddy were two separate products back then. I was very specific in citing only Honorbuddy (which indeed now includes Gatherbuddy2--which is not the same product).

Also, no offense, but when it comes to anything about bot safety/bans I take everything from developers with a grain of salt. You have a product to sell, and of course you're not going to get too in-depth about the risks of bans. I'm not going to go to Marlboro if I have questions about the safety of smoking cigarettes. I understand your position on the matter, but I'm just telling it how I see it.

This is a good, conservative attitude. Any proposal should always be taken under advisement. Anything said by employees of the company that makes the product should always be treated with a skeptical eye. But we, too, have theories and opinions. Those opinions should certainly carry no more weight (and hopefully not much less weight) than anyone else's opinions.

...I ran heroics, bgs, and lfr...

BGs alone will get you banned, and we all know it. Agreed, the rewards are good, but BGs are incredibly risky behavior. I would be willing to wager the difference between those that get banned, and those that don't can be traced back to BGs, alone. But, I have no proof for that theory.


cheers,

So your basically saying that because people are getting banned on US Servers due to there ignorance of other people telling them not to bot 24/7 or they just get banned from reports that the EU players will now get banned.....LOL! If you get banned you made yourself get banned. 5 years of botting and not a ban yet. GOLFCLAP TO YOU MR!

Not even sure that was English, however let me make you feel really bad about your own intelligence. Just sit there and let me explain to you, in not very nice words because that's not my style, why you are dumb. I'll even give you the shadow of a doubt you don't speak English as your first language, but now hear this out. If EU got banned before the US, and now it's the US's turn, what makes you think it won't go back to the EU again?

Regardless of whatever chomp knobbers try to tell you, bot banning is pretty even everywhere. It is your tendencies while botting that are the largest contributor to your ban risk. Now where ever you thought you were coming from with all of that intellect, well you are wrong and should stop trying to tell people anything about botting then.

are you serious? you cant tell if that was english or not? for real, HB forums should have some sort of lock on them....

really? another post about how youre not able to understand english? because you bot 24/7 and get banned you cant understand english?

I'm not totally convinced your first language is english..... but keep talking shit about whatever you think is sort of important.
