I've seen alot of people here over the past couple months post how the increase in 72hr suspensions have gone up greatly. Yes its odd but then again, its probably just that more people are reporting something thats been going on for awhile.

But one thing I have noticed is the increase in random whispers over the past couple months. Some posted that the Shut Up plugin was a dead give away. There are actual in-game addons that do the same thing as Shut Up so unless you don't change your respones thats probably not the case...

On my account I actually hand play (yes some of us actually do that, its not just a myth).. i've been getting some real odd whispers lately, more in BG's then normal but still.

Some of these are "Do you speak spanish?" or "Hey, where did you get that mount?" or "Cool Guild name, are you the GM?"

Now i know these seem stupid and random, but there are a efw times during BG's that when I go to respond to the person they no longer exist. And when I started checking them on Armory, well ya.. no such toon listed. I know that some gold sellers use such tactics but when the message comes from someone on another realm during a BG?

My guess is theres a slight chance Blizzard is going old school and based on other player reports and/or system stats, checking out toons at random.

Anyone have any insight/opinion on this?


Yes this is a 'discussion' topic only.. not ment to say we are doomed.. its maintance time and trying to get the blood flowing here...
 
From what I've seen

I'm new to the botting game so I can only speak for the last couple of months but for me the random whispers are pretty steady. I wouldn't say they're more of them but I have been getting more group invites if anything. Then when I decline it and ask them what it was for I don't get a response. I did get the "hey that's a cool guild name" whisper though more then once randomly though. Just my two cents. :)
 
You know... I've been getting strange whispers lately too. Just the other day someone whispered me and asked my real name. Don't know who they were. I just found that odd. I've also gotten whispers like you stated "cool guild name" and things like that.

Strange... I just came off a 72h suspension.. and frankly I'm right back to botting hoping that I get a perm so I can be done with this crap. Its an addiction (botting).
 
I used the "Squire" plug in....for exactly one BG. I wanted to watch it and see how well it worked. There I was in AB sitting at the Farm. My auto follow target started their check by making circles around the flag which I, of course, followed. They then mounted-I mounted. They dismounted-I dismounted. I reached over, shut down HB, then said in say, Enough playing, rogue inc, and played out the rest of the BG by hand. :)

Edit: Just wanted to say that I hate Tuesdays-specially when it's a Tuesday that I happen to be off work. Servers still down! :(
 
Been getting more than usual whispers lately as well.

Most of the time it's either "Are you there?" or "you fucking bot! reported!"

So i'd say things are about the same as a few months back =)

Kinda this. A top 3 guild on my server, I do nothing but farm 24/7, never respond, get logs full of whispers, plenty of *im reproting you* things, even speedhack and noclip, I just want to be banned now so I can move on lmao. Sadly, I've done this for over a year to no avail. Blizz must be my number one fan.
