What was I banned for?

[silvaman]

I know it's impossible to know exactly how i was banned, but i'm wondering if it was botting that drew the attention from the GM's, or somthing else, and then they realized i was botting.

I talk a lot in trade
I troll when i join groups sometimes
I kill alot of horde as i'm on a pvp server
Sometimes ill join a group cross realm and just leave because the rare i wanted wasnt there, other times ill make up an excuse to leave

a couple days ago a guy messaged me saying "cheater" after i asked him how much his mysterious fortune cards were? And i had some on the ah at the time. Come to think of it, i put 100 up in stacks of 20 1 day, they sold well, so i did it again the next day

I sell a little on the AH, not much. Like i sell all my golden lotuses which is like around 30 a day. Ore here and there, nothing over 7 stacks.
The vast majorirty of my ore and herbs go to private buyers, alot of those buyers are repeat customers.
And i have bot all night long for the past several days. And some during the day. I only bot using GB2 lately.

I'm guessing i was banned simply from player reports while botting over night. But then again most of those guys are botting too. So what could it have been?

How can i have a good night? I cant bot anymore

What do other people think?

 

[command3r5]

appeal it, if it's a first time offence they'll probably reduce it to suspension

do NEVER bot at night now a days, specialy with GB. I am personaly not touching GB befor we figure out why/how blizz are hitting us.

Okay, have a bad night then. You can't do anything about it other than appealing. I already told you why you were banned. GB2 is a double-edged weapon. It doesn't stand for gatherbuddy, it stands for GetBanned. It's not the bot's fault, it's simply gathering for too long that's risky.

Appeal, if you get it overturned, never bot again on that account if you care too much.

Blizzard follow people making gold and if they start getting too much you will get flagged and eventually reviewed by a GM and if they do so they can easily know if you were boting. Thats what I think, farming gold will get you banned.
