Ok reading all the bulox bout % the fact is the right % to this would be anywhere between 1% to 100% you get cought anyone thinking difrent bout it is an idiot i bot for almost an year now and i use GB2 on EU servers MOP and yes i have been banned 1 time for 72 hours for boting way back. I use it on 1 account and proberly my account will be watched from time to time the fact is i bot for 2-10 hours a day.
Ussing GB2 setings bounce and random and i have loot mobs on yeh i know i would get crap shit in my bags with it but is it humman to when you encounter an rare and killed it you leave the loot there NO it's not. I never ninja loot as well. The fact is that i started my bot again the second i could get back in after my 72 hour ban and din't recive any ban again for 8 months now.
The program itself is not detectble what is detecteble is multiply accounts on the same I.P all loged in at the same time so geus what would happends when account 1 get cought.
I change profile evry 2 hours and never do the same profile at the same day i only use GB2 to gather my herbs and ores then i use raid bot to do some dungeons/raids i avoid BGbuddy and other things like that.
So indd it's all bout smart botting and no where near the devs faults you get cought what so ever. You take the risk to bot you take the risk of an ban clean and simple.
I monitoring my bot 100% of time when i go take an piss i turn it of for that mom.
Sorry for my poor english anyway.
Dude you dont understand it right? People here use 20+ Bots and they didnt have any problems with bans at all or botting smart or whatever.
And now its not possible anymore. We are NOT idiots. Dont try to teach us.
Ofc we could setup a bot like this and lessen our goldinc per char by 10-15k gold. But seriously is it worth it?
No its not.
If i?d be happy with 5k gold per day then i would do what you are saying but i am not.
It is too risky to bot mop right now.
And even if i really follow your post and bot like this i will still get banned soon. Cause im not botting 1 account im botting 20+ so i will get accounts banned and it wasnt like this before. This started in April.
Do you get the fucking story now? Please whoever comes up with "I bot 1 char no problem mop change profiles every 30 minutes, monitor 100%, write back pms" whatever (Without really knowing if you`ll be banned in the next time or not). Dont bother posting here, dont try to teach us, we know what we are doing we just want a statement from HB.
I wonder if all of you smartheads are gonna post "I was actually wrong with my post i got banned. Whatever i said with monitoring etc doesnt work aswell. Sorry for that"
I really wonder if anyone will man up and post that when he gets banned while botting.
Hello guys, I don't post here very often but I just wanted to try and maybe help people not get banned, I am not a botting expert, in fact, I have only been doing it for a few months, so far I have only had 1 account banned and I think that's because I was stupid and I was botting literally 24/7 in questing greens, it happened when there was a little mini ban wave before patch 5.2. Any way, I am now botting on 4 accounts every day mostly using Gatherbuddy and BGbuddy and here is what I have been doing and I haven't been banned, I have botted on these accounts for months, I was lucky they weren't banned before 5.2, any way, here's what I'm doing, hopefully this will help any one.
1) First of all, I only bot maybe 8 hours a day, I bot for about 4-6 hours in the morning and then another 4-6 hours after 6pm , usually when I come home from work. This is all unmonitored, specially in the morning as I'm working.
2) It's worth noting, all 3 of my "gatherers" are in full Malev gear with some tyranical pieces, they are also fully gemmed/enchanted so they don't really look like bots, I also pvp in them sometimes so they have some achievements, I'm going to work on getting some transmogs as well because I think this helps more then just having a character in questing greens botting 24/7, GM wouldn't even feel sorry for you if he caught you.
3) I am selling gold on these accounts, but only Guild bank gold, I disband the guilds after too, weather that helps or not I don't know but I'm paranoid.
4) One thing I'm doing wrong but luckily hasn't caught with me yet I think is, I send all the herbs and ores to my main account and I sell them from my main account, my main account I only do questing bot or BGbuddy, (this is bad I know) but I really don't give a crap if I'm banned any way cuz I sure as hell am not going to quest manually or honor grind in greens. I AH all my Ores and I cod my herbs or ah depending on prices.
5) I use all public profiles, bad I know but I do. One thing to note thou is I switch profiles every time I log in so that the bot isn't always in the same place, my first account I was banned I think it didn't help that I basically used same profile (Ducks) 24/7 for like 2 weeks straight lol.
6) I chat in guild chat, join pvp premades and do arenas on my bots.
7) They are not SoR accounts but they are all RAF, I levelled them to 80 using Dungeonbuddy with my main and then Kicks profiles to 90. (Thanks Kicks)
Hopefully that helps any one, let me know if you have any questions of more things about my botted accounts.
friend got banned 2 days ago, tried to appeal it - simply replied and responded with;
