How to not get banned?

[Kolt21]

im prepared to bot again. havent since 12/18/2012 RIP.

lost 8/8 then.

I have since created 2 i7 3770k Delidded low temp 4.7ghz 1.3v overclocked super machines. as alot of you know.

total cost was 2700$. not interested in "LOL dude not worth it posts"

fact is I can go live with 32 bots at any time.

I am scurred to say the least. diablo keys are hard to come by atm.

I KNOW I am going to get banned. I am prepared for that fact of life.

what I want is to make some money before that happens. dont we all?

So the question is. have we learned enough since Dday 12/18/2012? that I can make it a few weeks off of them?

I see alot of people saying DB not detected many people survived 12/18/2012 and to this day live to tell about it.

What are those guys doing? I am financially wiped out from the investments into systems. bots, and keys.

I need to at the very least make the money for my 32 licences before croaking.

Some of my best and most reliable friends are still staying away.

I died on the 18, resurrected on the 22nd. Been alive since. We'll see what happens in a few hours after maintenance is over

Many people warned you but you continued on your own.

Now be a man and loose your money on your own.

Only luck can save you or prepare to resell your stuff before it loose value.

From what i've seen in the last weeks two things are 'almost' sure
lvl the bots manually or with a friend don't bot
log in manually don't use reloggers

24/7 isn't an issue but it probably raises more flags in the long run

there is some 'evidence' that they manually investigate accounts before banning so take every precautions you can change ip , email address , use another name/friend to buy/sell so that there is no link to banned ones

But in the end no one can say what gets you banned and currently it is very risky to make a big investment (i've decided myself to take a break for now)

If botting is such a waste of time why are you here?

 

[Kolt21]

Have we found any evidence to suggest that botting in the 24 hours period after maintenence is a higher risk?

I appreciate your post.

I will avoid reloggers but leveling manual is not an option with this many bots. I have 2 options. Keep Waiting, or GO.

I often ponder going with just 3-6 bots but.... i keep saying to myself, 30 bots will recoup the cost of 30 bots faster than 6 will recoup the cost of 6. Im not even sure that thought train is logical but its in my head.

Personally, I would wait until patch 1.07 comes out , they will have a lot of work to fix some bugs( Patch will add dueling , class balances new items - a lot of work for bliz ), and if we are lucky we will have some time like after 1.04 when they ban maximum once in a 1-2 month. but i'm still running lost some bots on 1 machine on 12th Jan . gonna wait the next patch.

why would this be the case? every instance "works" for itself, sure if one out of 30 makes a 250$ find, you got 6 licenses paid, but also could a single bot find 3 250$ items in one week making it the most prolific way of botting then, so it is just rng which may get you a faster break even on a larger amount of instances, but rng can also bring you faster into profit while botting with a small farm.

in the end it all comes down to 6 paying off for 6 as fast as 500 would pay off for 500, not counting bot-sitting the number of accounts...

I would say 30 would likely turn a profit faster than 6 if you sit on them. Of course every bot is going to to make around the same amount per day, but then there are those once a month, or once every few months items. 30 is more likely to find a super high ticket item before it has paid for itself and put you over the top.

But, that isn't something you should depend on.

i lost 12 on 12/18. restarted with 16 on the 26th and got 28th - 1/7 or 1/8 cant remember off top of my head of production out of them so 10~ days of money.

have 16 keys again and still debating. items have taken an even bigger hit with 1.7 notes up (crafting theory) and gold still hasnt came back up but will. gems may be the saving grace atm as they are redic now. im either going tomorrow and not sleep till 60 or waiting for 1.7... havent decided 100% yet.

what i do know is that goddamn error reporter seems a lot more dangerous than people give it credit. has anyone else looked at it? its like a fkin criminal confession if they go through. it even has names of mules in the logs. it has an active game counter , all your settings, all modules / processes running, etc etc. i deleted it before last session but it came back like an ex-gf.

im def going to do everything in my power to block / delete / disable / write only or whatever else i can do to that thing as the crashes coinciding with bans seem way to much of a coincedence for me along with the wealth of damning evidence those logs provide.
