is botanica still flagged

[Rogue Demon]

so i decided to try out botanica with 2 accounts that had its bans repealed. ran them for an hour and 50 minutes, took a few hours break, ran them for an hour 50 minutes again, took another few hours break, these 2 runs were done on the same mac id. I then decided to run them for like 4-5 hours with no breaks on vmware and immediately i got banned. is botanica still flagged and should be avoided or did i get banned because of my previous bans?

Ran it with no problem before.. I'm guessing to 99% it has something with ur previous bans to do Sorry for you loss..

Flagged? What are you talking about? To determine if a dungeon is the right dungeon for you to run, watch your toon run it for an hour and take notice of how many people are running it. More people running the same dungeon the exact same way over and over again will probably trigger some kinda "flag" - considering how many ban reports came in from people running Botanica and the fact that you had already been banned for running it, I would say it was rather stupid of you to start running it again. No offense.

i am running this instance 8 hours a day without pause and i am still ok.

I assume your Accs are flagged.

There are certain Instances that seem to receive Higher Ban reports than others. Is this a product of more Bots in each of these than the others or a known place that Blizz targets? You decide. Botanica is the original solo farm bot till you drop instance and has been on Blizz radar for several years now.

Botanica
Black Temple
Halls of Lightning
Lost City of Tol'vir
Grim Batol
Pit of Saron

These instances have higher population due to the higher GPH for Botters and Hand players alike. If you manage to run your Bot endlessly in one of these instances day after day for hours on end and avoid a ban, well more power to you. But if you do this and get Banned and then wonder why... this probably is not the game for you.

on my server botanica seems to be always empty sometimes theres like maybe one player running it, is it empty because players are avoiding it knowing its flagged or do you think since the lack of players are running it causes it to go off blizzards radar?

Back in the early days of WoW those instances listed are the main instances where Chinese farmers botted 24/7. So blizzard keeps a keen eye on them. Back in the day you used to be able to go to halls of lightning and gank all the bots sitting outside the instance and farm honor that way!
