How the hell does WoW have so much downtime? It's really a pile of anus juice.
 
My best guess would be that because when wow was originally designed the technology didn't exist to keep the game up forever like it does in other games today. You've got to remember that wow is almost 10 yeas old now, it's made a lot of advances and changes but a lot of the base code is still there so it needs to have things rebooted and restarted to make sure everything is running properly. As far as the actual maintenance, they're probably putting in things from the PTR slowly piece by piece instead of all at once. They also use maintenance times to straighten out hot fixes they make in between Tuesdays, like last week they made the hotfixes to hunters, they're probably take this time to change tooltips and everything to reflect the change.
 
aslong as they dont patch i cant afford to wait another week to start farming again.

As much as I hate it as well, you can probably bet on the bot being down at least a day or two. One day at minimum I'd think. They're getting pretty hard on us botters so I'm sure Honorbuddy staff will want to take time to make sure everything is safe before releasing another version.

Could be wrong though, could come back up instantly, but if I were you I'd plan on not botting today at least.
 
got job interviews and have a few things for school i need to finish no worrys here just hate the downtime of not being able to play .
 
I haven't been botting with Honorbuddy for very long, but I used PiroX bots for a long time back in the day, and it was common that the bot was down for a day or two after a maintenance, and Honorbuddy seems to care way more about security then PiroX ever did.

Luckily blizzard doesn't always patch every week. I'm sure we're just getting a lot of maintenance now because of 5.3 being so new.

i remember a time when you could expect to bot for weeks without any down time... now it seems like every week you get about 3-4 days worth of botting and 3 worth of down time. Ive got my fingers crossed that the bot will stay up today.

It would be nice if that is the case, I hope it is, I use the bot to do my dailies on my characters. But I'd rather the devs be safe and keep us unbanned than release too early.
 
lol i totally forgot that it's tuesday. I have class all day :\ I kind of forget stuff like that.

yay, we get to fiddle some more.
