Starter edition bans

[pimpampum]

Honorbuddy has ALWAYS had a constant stream of bans. There's no more bans going on at the moment than was happening before the banwave.

There's thousands of bots running around at any given time. That's thousands of people not banned, yet people see a few threads in the ban forums and all of a sudden it's the end of the world.

You can think that HB is less safe right now, but the simple fact is there's nothing to prove that it actually is less safe.

What could make you think it is less safe? A banwave that killed 99% of the bots?

Oh wait....it happened a month ago, yet some people here seem to pretend it never happened.

It's true that there's no more bans going on now than before the banwave...

But maybe the fact that only a tiny portion of the pre banwave userbase is botting right now has to do with it. Anway, the lower number of bots on makes your botting account easier to be found in a manual investigation due to basic odds.

I would love to know the actual numbers on people using Hb these days, my estimate is they are quite lower than what you stated.

Who's to say that blizz couldn't have dropped the banhammerr 6 months ago, or even a year ago...the only people that know the answer that is Blizz themselves, and they sure aren't going to say anything. Just like the HB team isn't going to give numbers on active botters either.

Just because it happened a month ago, it doesn't change anything...The risk is still the same, the dev's will say it's safe and you shouldn't bot on something you're afraid of losing.

another kicks banned in the banned forum. scary ass shit. Just got my new account and im extremely hesitant to bother. He barely played/botted and was banned before even hitting 70.

w... t... f.

"honorbuddy is as safe as it ever was" yea.. okay.

perhaps it is and blizzard just never gave a shat before. They sure do now though.

I wouldnt solely blame Kicks profile OR HB in the case of levelers. Ive been leveling by hand and wow theres alot of bots you see along the way. Not only that but theres someone on my server advertising some of the levelers as bots and asking us to join her group so they can mass report them. Its a known issue in the wow community and they see the bots leveling. Thats why I prefer to use Dugis addon and just hand level

I have been running HB for ages now, I have noticed a recent pattern in my accounts being banned, Their primary target is the Market Board, my primary account uses the Combat Routines through a Virtual machine and has absolutely no problem with the current ban wave.

My farmers however, One extremely noticable pattern I am recognizing is the Auction House, I can farm lock boxes on my Rogues, for a steady flow and they haven't been suspended or nipped in nearly 100% unsupervised, But I believe they are watching, reviewing, and processing every player purchasing a WoW Token, If they are paid with real money, and bought with ingame money then blizzard will always check the records of the gold, they reverse and return purchases of RMT if they find the gold was stolen could cause great financial backlash for them.

If you are going to be farming, you are going to have to start farming smart, Because if blizzard reviews your wow token purchase it's going to be very obvious if you logs look something

In the passed few days, They will see that you farmed Grim Batol, They will see all your activities for the passed whatever days they may even track them.

So I've stopped purchasing WoW Tokens, and obtain my gametime the old fashion way, If anyone would like to emphasize on what I've been noticing please add your thoughts, I've simply been lurking these forums looking at problems and reading only small solutions.
