The Speculations

[Aroxan]

I've been seeing people speculate about how "blizzard is banning all these botters so they will buy battlechest."
It's a reasonable theory, reason being, Blizzard, is a game as well as a company.
I'm sure they have some form or way of getting botters at a certain time to make some extra money. I also believe that some people just don't know how to bot in the right amounts of time.
I saw, today, someone say that they got banned, and they said they were botting 20/7. They said it must be due to battlechest sale.
I'm completely amazed that anyone would say such things due to that being an insanely unhuman way of playing.

Why don't you tell me what you are doing ?
How many hours/botting ?
The thing is that those who are willing to make cash would want to bot as much as possible and not bot on only ONE or TWO accounts for fun.

Well i got my first hb bot 1 month ago, I farmed on gatherbuddy for 3 weeks , 8-12 hours a day .
On my 4th week i tried farming shards for 5 days . I stopped once i heard they got duped on my server and now worth shit all.
On the 4th day of farming shards i got a error and logged off, when i logged back on right away my toon was placed on the other side of the mountain.
The only way to get my toon there was to fly but my bot was set to not use a mount.
I started gathering again, 3 days in i got banned.
