Is a VPN needed to keep non-botting accounts safe?

[pixelsbot]

I was just wondering that if you're botting on the same connection as the one that you're also playing on another account from that does not bot will you get banned on it too if you get caught botting? Anyone knows anything about this?

I don't mind using a VPN the main issue is that if I lose my VPN connection I have it set that it would close the honorbuddy and WoW processes and then if I'm sleeping I can't restart it until I wake up. Perhaps there's a way to auto-connect back on VPN and get HBRelog to log back in but I have no idea how to do that :/

depends on what you are doing; if your just farming felblight then no need. If you're selling gold like pablo escobar then yes 100%

As long as u dont do anything against their ToS on the said account nothing will happen, not taking gold from the bot accounts etc. If they want to know who u are and what u are doing a vpn alone wont help much, datasave in your registry for example.

it doesend matter if you use a vpn or not i got banned multiple times with a vpn on and also without it you dont get banned by a vpn in wow only if you bot a vpn is allowed when i play legit with a vpn i dont get banned but i had multiple times where i got banned while botting+vpn

Based on my experience, a vpn is even more risky than using none.

Use a virtual machine to bot on and include the vpn on that. Should ghost you just fine! I don't bot anymore but that's what I used to do.

Closing thread.
VPN discussions are against the rules, sorry.

Any furture offenses may result in action against your account.
