Smart to AFK in town?

[StevenJobs]

So my logic behind this is basically to increase playing time and decrease gold per hour. If someone from blizz is manually looking at accounts with high amount of gold found, then this would help deter them. I was at 90 hours 45 million gold found, which equates to like 500k an hour, I think that is kind of fishy considering all I did was farm gold. I know that 100 million seems to be the number where some people are getting flagged or worried about, so I am just thinking increase your playing time so it doesn't look as suspicious. Any other thoughts on this?

What about those of us who bot ~10 hours a day already? Prob not a good idea to increase play time then

Actually it would be, because if Blizzard checks up on you and sees you're just sitting in town half the time it would explain a lot. And also 24\7 botting is not proven to have gotten anyone banned this far. People seem to assume this is what has gotten people banned but there is absolutely no proof at all for this theory. There's plenty of us botting 24\7 with no bans to date and even people with 700m+ gold picked up and no bans to date.

I am with hellcom on this.

Of course you can bot 24/7 until your play time gets looked at by a human being.

And then they look at the bot, that was used 10h per day and still see that in those 10h he did 500k gph, very likely to be left alone that acc. There is no way to mask those amounts of GPH. If a human looks into it, banhammer inc no questions asked.

Ask yourself storm, you see someone with played of 100 hours in 10 days and gold picked up 50 mil and you would leave him alone?

I think:

1.) If they can look at your account
2.) They can find your gold made
3.) They can find how many hours you've played
4.) They can see how much of that time was afk
5.) ...and find how much GPH you made. lol

But who knows...
