Sometimes, I just want to call "BULLSHIT" on this whole forum.

That is especially true when it comes to discussions concerning bans. I am convinced that there are some people on these forums that would like to convince everyone else to quit botting so they could have more online/ingame resources for themselves. They would love to have less competition in the auction house. So, they toss around the "ban" word in an attempt to frighten other botters.
I am also convinced that there are some on this forum that have been caught botting. However, there is no way to prove how or why they were caught. Blizzard employees are certainly not revealing any of their tricks.
Others say that they have been botting 24/7 for years without ever getting caught, and I wonder. There is no way to prove to this community that you have been botting without also potentially proving to Blizzard that you've been botting. So, I have to simply take you at your word.
We all have our own experiences that we work off of. Most of us just keep on doing what we do.
Ultimately, it takes courage to bot. It is a risk, and those that enjoy the risk will keep on botting. If they get caught, then they will simply deal with whatever happens when it happens.
BTW, my vote is - KICKAZZ ROCKS!
