Why doesn't anyone ever ask this question about bans??

ALL,

I have been banned twice. Once was for buying Gold a long time back before I ever botted. I got banned because I did a server transfer.... yes I know for a 100% fact that is what began them looking at my account.

The second was after I began botting. I travel a lot every 1-2 years so therefore am in different places with different time zones requiring me to adjust or get left behind in gearing. I was botting, mining, herbing on two accounts and had a guild bank fairly stock but spread out between different things. I never overloaded on any one thing but I didnt really care it was just a preference not a ban avoidance technique. I moved.... had to transfer to an oceanic server. 1.5 days later BANNED. This time I could not for 100% verify that it was because of the transfer they looked into things.

In my line of work there is no coincidence. So my suggestion is. Let's add this type of questioning to the standard I was banned thread as well as to the sticky area in ban avoidance.

IF YOU SERVER TRANSFER HUGE AMOUNTS OF ANYTHING. GOLD, TRADE ITEMS, CONSUMABLES, A GUILD BANK that has 5 members all level 1 and a level 1 guild.... your setting yourself up for a disaster. This is too actively seeking to abuse the economy and Blizzard won't have a choice but to come investigate your account. From there it is all down hill if a real person starts digging into your history.

pretty sure thats common sense, not only that, but the questions that are on the ban forum sticky are made so we can determine if theres issues with our community generated content, (if someone is using a weird LUA call, or something thats getting accounts flagged) we can identity it, and remove it.
 
yea absolutely understand. Sorry about the caps btw reading it kinda made me feel like an ass, but I rather worry about ppl keeping their accounts. It is a big investment.

From your perspective (developer) I understand, but it could be awesome in isolating and avoiding frustration from the majory of the community if one question was added.

"Have you done a server transfer involving that account in the past XX days or XX weeks?"
 
Hey, i was also banned earlier today, i only bot on one account and i believe it's just a coincidence but i also server transfered yesterday. I didn't transfer excessive amounts of gold or any materials along with me, actually had most of my staff on another character. Could be that i botted for long amounts of time and someone reported me at some point.
