using rndbuddy to bot ore, never ever went un monitored, 12 hours a day, guess gatherbuddy and rndbuddy isnt as safe as we thought.

...guess gatherbuddy and rndbuddy isnt as safe as we thought.

They are just as safe as everyone thinks, most people know you take a risk anytime you bot. That risk isn't that the bot is detectable by blizzard; it's accounts with a botting schedule (especially ones who mine 12 hours a day everyday) then players will report you for whatever reason...whether it's because you are on their normal mining route or if they see you make some awkward bot-like movement when landing on a node. Point is, if you want to mine 12 hours a day use expendable accounts and hope you make a profit before they are banned. If you don't want to get banned mix up your schedule to look like a semi-real player.

I think its just behavior detection, did you do anything else on the accounts other than farming ores for a couple of days?

 

[Soveyhawk1978]

If you wanna feel safe while using GB2 since then, do invest some time, reading regarding safe botting and adopt as much as possible.

Then you would realize 12h botting GB2 is not safe since ... 2 years or so?

 

[Soveyhawk1978]

yeah ill be taking extra precautions movng forward.

 

[Hell-Razor]

BOTTING isnt safe

BOTTING isnt safe

It depends on what type of Risk you want to take your botting too If you want to be a farmer and only farm on that account vsing someone who is only using it for CR and plays 4 hours a day. Total different risk levels. But if HB got detected then yea we are all screwed.

 

[drdeath]

botting is all about using some common sence ive never had a ban dont just bot in one place change profiles every so often its not HB that get u a ban it the way u bot

BOTTING isnt safe

No, its not safe ofc, and I do always reminds this fact, when cashout my PP rogues, once every few days, and when I feed them with gamecard for the 3rd time!

 

[starlite68]

GB2 isn't safe period. sorry you got the idea that randombuddy is somehow safer(er), but it never was. always tons of reports of bans with it. same for all private profiles and one time use profiles.

the idea that the major detection method for gathering is monitoring exact waypoints is a fantasy.

i've been using the most popular public profiles for 2 years now, no ban. thing is - i barely run GB2. 45 min at a time, 2 hours or so tops TOTAL per day. that's the only way I've ever figured out to not get snagged, and I've lost a dozen accounts to GB2.

NO HUMAN FLIES AROUND GATHER HERBS AND ORE FOR 12 HOURS OUT OF 24. or very few. it doesnt matter if you logout every hour, chat, whisper, do dungeons, randombuddy, whatever. if your account flies around gather 12hrs/day, you will get flagged.

I think it's funny, "Fuck Blizzard!" even though they did exactly what you're warned about, and know about ahead of time.

 

[defac3]

So you did goldsell... Misleading title.

Not on the accounts aforementioned, l2read.
