regarding safety on botting bg's and farming herbs.

Hello!

Ok so before I begin I want to start with saying that this isn't any "is it safe to bot" thread. Or it is, but not in that kind of manner that i'm going to talk about.

We all know that botting has never been "SAFE". But recently there has been a increased number of bans/threads in both demonbuddy AND honorbuddy ban section. Which made me personally stop botting in Diablo3. And from the look of it a lot of other people have stopped botting too. I came back to WoW a couple of weeks ago and noticed it right away when I was doing bg's, I haven't even seen ONE bot so far.

Is botting dead because it's less safe then it usually is?
Because I look daily in the ban forum and I see a new ban thread almost everyday, some of them feels fake just because of the info AND the date they joined the forums.

So basically, I want to discuss whether it is less safe to bot now then it was a month ago.
Also going to throw up a poll. (I think)

And no haters in this thread please, keep it clean.

Hey Nigaogaki,

I think the biggest influence for me has been the prevalence and acceptance that there are tools used to track the behaviors and movements of characters. I do not intend on giving up on my infinite quest for gold via gathering botting, however I do intend on being as responsible as one can. Rotating profiles, custom profiles imparticular have been my savior (in my opinion) as of late. Varying times and durations, etc. - basically taking all of the advice I can find on the forums from everyone that claims to be operating safely.

To each their own, no risk, no reward, "insert motivational cliche here"

Good luck, and "safe" botting!
