I have never had an infraction for diablo 3 botting, I also never started botting diablo3 until after RoS where RMAH was gone. So sorry no fear mongering, I'm just stating what has been said. Most bans for botting happened before RoS released and while RMAH was active as well as any trading. With or without real money involved. I was suggesting that his 6-7 infractions/bans may have happened during that time frame. Key points about this time frame, was it DB? Yes. Was it within diablo3? Yes. Its the same demonbuddy as now with less functionality.
This does not automatically disqualify it because you think this does not apply, thats like saying that a baseball team who won a world series before 1973 is not valid because it was before the current state of the game where designated hitters are allowed in half of the league. Now if he has not botted during that time frame then I do agree that if he has 6-7 bans during this season based play, that really doesn't add up. Or he has an obsession with botting in public games and generating play reports.
Given the fact that his forum join date is 10.07.2012, it is entirely possible that he was using DB during the preRoS time frame.
