What do you think , how high is the banrate of using HB with your Main Acc ?

[jossa90]

I have not been banned with HB yet.
I guess that the key to not get banned.
Is that you dont bot afk 12 hours straight.
Dont ever post too many stacks at ah frequently.
Dont get too greedy etc.

Btw. For levling. Toon.
Then i think its safer to use the quest bot. than the grinding bot, when it comes to leveling.

Been botting the better part of 5 years now no bans no suspensions all on my main account 12+ 85s 100% leveled with HB 8-10 hours a day gathering herbs/ores on top of 8+ hours a day leveling alts.

If you been bottin for 3-5 years and never banned you don't even bot enough to make any real money or even play more than a normal casual player would.

That is your opinion... Though the question was in regard to "main" accounts wasn't including the throw aways

 

[Kunstnebel]

I use HB for 3 Years now with my main Acc for PvP - Raiding - GB and alls other functions and still no ban

 

[diablofan]

boting only on my main account made 300k since mop, paying gametime for gold over last 1 year still not a single warn

As a professional data analyst I could not let this question as worded in the OP go. Allow me this indulgence.

The question as proposed is not sound because "main" is an emotional distinction. When compared using exact same data (i.e. behavior, activity, use), the ban rate and/or risk for a "main" account is no higher than the ban rate and/or risk for a non main account. However, most botters are more likely to be less careful on a non-main account thereby putting it at higher risk for a ban which then creates a false impression that the ban rate is higher on a non-main account.

All accounts are at risk for ban directly proportionate to the amount of stupid practiced by the botter.

voted 0%, beein botting for my own ingame wealth and enjoyment for a couple years, some months off, and never been hit. Be careful, dont be stupid on ah, pray to your lord.

I purchased Piroxbot early 2010, Been Farming (ore's and herbs while sleeping), and PVP Leveling my Toons i had the bot running for a week straight with at lease 6 hours of downtime each day.

ive been using Honorbuddy for Lazyraider, Daily Quests, and leveling 1-90. i always leave it on over night, never gotten banned.

I'd say your main account probably has far less chance to get banned than other accounts. Nothing says bot like an account with characters spread across multiple servers with only 1 or 2 max level characters on each one, along with a ton of level 1 bank alts, with no achievements and no dungeons/raids done. Your main account probably shows tons of "non-bot like" activity.

 

[Hawkiz]

since its a main account..
0.009% exactly..

all the alts accounts, are atleast 40%..


i hope you get the point ^^

 

[rebel1012]

Ive been botting on just my main since April 2010 without a single ban a single warning nothing. Ive made over 5 million gold and have 12 85's 2 90 (working on them). So I really dont know if some servers GM's just dont care or if there is some kind of "trusted" accounts if you've played on the same account since beta i dunno but ive never had a problem and honestly ive probably used HB way to much.

 

[buzkil]

My main just got banned.... And i supervised it 100% of the time...

 

[Circles]

Wow, thats sad. Hope you get it back soon.

My main just got banned.... And i supervised it 100% of the time...

 

[Ch0denator]

0-1% so long as you dont "abuse the economy" ie sell more than 20-30 items per day.

 

[Flugsvamp]

So.. Let's say all you do is farm reputations, mounts and such.. It will be less chance of getting banned? Im on EU.

 

[HB7032V76]

well to put it out more straight, just lost my main acc 2 weeks ago , 6 years old acc, with 20 playable chars... i had all on 3 servers... they are gone, but i got another account on same Bnet for schieves and mounts...

 

[Kohl]

I've botted all but 1 class on my main account to 1-85-90 and I've GB/BG botted for days at a time and the only ban I received was for "abuse of the economy"

That came from butthurts being undercut on the AH by 5g every time I'm sure of it I appealed it the GM said I got "false flagged" and was unbanned an hour later I've been at this 2 1/2 years I think and I'm still going strong.

 

[richmtL]

Use the bot mainly on main account for the last year or so, no ban so far

 

[zoril]

I've been botting on my main acc for 1 year now with HB, no problems so far. Sometimes I even bot for 24h+ but mostly for around 1-5 hours.
