So i logged in today to check out new 2.1 contents, and i was surprised to find out two of my friends got banned for botting. I felt bad for them cuz im the one who taught them using db lol.
But yeah. I logged in just fine though. I been botting for couple months, probably more than 1800hrs of botting. Running chestrun, ton of bounties, key run, ghom, etcetc. But i stopped botting around 8/10 due to fully geared on every toons.
So now, i assume these bot monitorings are either pure random or people who been botting within last 2 weeks.
For people who wonder about these bans, one of my friend has been botting 24/7 with chestrun. He played manually maybe 5% of the time. And hes banned.
On the other hand, i used to have d3 turned on 24/7, play manually running T6 rift 3-5 hours a day, and botting key run, chestrun, or bounties when im away. I usually mixed those 3 to prevent 41002 or whatever game creating error codes. I play solo, pug, and with strangers in community channels. If i had to stop the bot for check on legendary loots, i usually restart the client once i identify the items before botting again.(im not sure if this helps with bot behavior not being detected but atleast it ease the memory leak problems with the game itself. aka less laggy) and i didnt get ban.
To jump to the conclusion, its matter of luck and how well you being cautious. If you ever come up with something like "what if...", then you are right. Dont do it. Or atleast try to find solutions to prevent it. Most of botters in d3 or any other MMO gets caught becuz of bot behavior, not software detection. So think twice, make your move carefully, and try not to make yourself look too obvious.
