Will you continue to bot after the announcement?

No, I will wait until Honorbuddy update and prevent new warden.

Yes. Thats the point of a permanent ban. If you get "caught", you get permanently banned in some cases. If you open a ticket, they'll change it to 72h.

Who told you such crap? Perma bans now are likely not to be turned in to 72h
 
I actually decided to dedicate one of the accounts that I had frozen for over 2 years in botting and making gold since I have the money to maintain the account and I dont mind losing it since it is a secondary and useless account to me nowadays.

I debated whether I should transfer a level 90 there but decided that I would quest bot my 85 hunter to 90, then farm 1-600 herb/mining and then blast on 6-12 hour farm on it.
Sadly when I got back home and after I bought gamecard and logged in to start setting up my account I came across the stepwire.
Therefore! BOT ON as the fellow hobbit pookthetook said above.
P.S. I have been botting on and off for the past 2-3 years on my main vanilla account and have not been banned yet luckily or not.
Hope my lucky charm doesnt fade away now!
Lets get this tripwire to test ;p

This is a known fact. They actually had 2 teams back in the day. Cosmeticus and one other one that I can not remember when Glider was around. They then merged those teams into one team Account Administration. So now it goes GM's (virtually useless Customer Service Lackeys) -> Account Administration Team. The Account Admin teams handles most Account penalty type actions and restores. I *believe* the Account Admin team is a few separate smaller teams which make up the Character Restores / Item Resolution and the Account Management Team.

This is why sometimes it takes longer than others or things get escalated on take longer. It actually goes to a much smaller team that handles that kind of thing. It has virtually the same structure as any call center. L1 (GM's) -> L2 (Account Admin) -> L3 (Account Management). You sure as shit do not want to give the lackeys power to ban. Truth is most L1 are L1 for a reason.

Zarborough.
 
There are alternatives to HB for combat routines (DPS and Tank), pretty good ones actually. I will use them until the devs are sure the new warden update can't detect certain HB injections or whatever HB does.

Too bad there a no good alternatives to healer routines thou ;(.
 
I have been toying with HB, using it for the repetitive tasks but was thinking of making gold and selling it. I raised some accounts for this but got attached to them. Am getting my gold plan together. Botting is great.
 
fuuuux I started it when I got home and just found out about the warden change.

since I started and injected both my accounts, I'd be fucked regardless, even if I stopped now, yeah?

I do it for the organized crime factor of it, think about it, you have all these different classes. Well, botting is like playing the criminal class. You are roleplaying as a mobster. Gems, metals, meat, leather, cloth, dungeons, these are all rackets to be ran. If you get caught with a 72 hour suspension, think of it as serving time in the can.

hmm have spent many nights in the Clink :P lol an its just telling me to take a break from what ever put me there or be smarter next time.
 
Nope, not running bot until I hear some sort of update from the HB team.
 
already running it, just using routine but w/e if its meant to be its meant to be yolo!
 
If you get banned, buy 2 more new accounts and restart..
since you shouldn't be botting on shit you want to lose in the first place :)

aren't accounts expensive since you need to buy everything from vanilla?
 
food for thoughst:

we all know bliz can read this site's forum, freely, so they see the warden warning issued, see what accounts are taking a hiatus since yesterday, cross reference that to suspicious accounts, now they have the ultimate proof WAM BAM BAN
 
i was lvling and i wont be no more.

Only arena's /rbg with Tyrael.

Although i dont believe Blizz stepped up against botters i still will be carefull.

If blizzard wanted to stop us, find us, they would have stepped up ages ago.

Not by a simple ninja patch.

Who told you this, got 9 of 10 turned into 72h bans after a ticket which was like "it says my account was suspended for botting, but i have never botted at all" and that was about one month ago .

Nope everything up to Cataclysm is included in a battlechest, imagine: new players had to buy the game , then 4 addons, and after that pay monthly subscription fees, does not sound thaat sexy .

I have about 2 days left on my level 85 battlechest farmers so I will continue to bot until the wheels fall off, so to speak.

surprisingly they have been going 4 days 24/7 before tripwire activated and no suspensions yet (farming instances).

Don't you worry now that BC are $20?
 
Frozen Account activated, 1h botting PB = no Problems
I will report again :)
