Im no mod but I already see threads popping up about this. So lets keep everything in one thread. I will update this as new info comes in.
GB working with patch 4.0.1 : NO
HB working with patch 4.0.1 : NO
Some things to think about while we experience this downtime.....
Why do we have this downtime? A few reasons.
1.Every patch changes the way GB and HB interact with WoW. If these are not adjusted then neither bot can communicate with WoW.
2. There is a chance that Blizzard could sneak some code in that would detect either bot. We have seen this happen in the past either through warden or other means. Therefore the entire patch must be looked over to ensure it is good for botting.
3. None of the CCs that worked prior to 4.0.1 will work now. So updates need to come not only from the HB devs but from the CC devs. This could be as simple as a Deathknight whom recieved only a few changes, to a Paladin that got an entire overhaul. You will need to wait till the devs update their CCs.
Things to consider before posting.
1. You pay to keep this bot current and safe. You are not entitled to a credit of any kind while the bot is down so dont post saying you deserve that. While the bot is down you are paying for the devs to go over it with a fine tooth comb.
2. Even the devs at this point do not know how long this downtime will be. They are sorry you will now have to foreclose on your home because you count on GB/HB as your sole income, but this is all part of the deal. Its a cat and mouse game between Blizzard and we need to stay ahead.
3. The devs are pretty much going to work all day and night to bring it back online so dont think they are slacking. Remember while the bot is down they dont have sales. No sales means no money and so on. Complaining that they are taking to much time is rude.
4. Did I mention that being rude to the devs wont move them along any faster? In fact they probably will never read this thread as they are too busy updating the bots. the "are we there yet?" posts can be avoided. When its ready, you will know.
5. No you cant help them speed things up. It would be wise just to participate in updated and active threads that are post 4.0.1 and not any of the older obsolete threads.
6. I cant think of anything else.
Support the devs and leave them be till things get done. Then everything will be back to normal. Be ready for all the mods to be watching the forums close for stupid threads and posts. Mutes will no doubt be handed out.
