These programs provide character benefits normally not achievable in the World of Warcraft. Such benefits include, but are not limited to, increased speed, teleportation, or running through walls/boundaries. Use of these unauthorized programs harms the game environment because they offer an unfair advantage over other players and supersede the intended limits of the game. Even if this is the result of account sharing, the account owner can still be held responsible for the penalty because of the impact it had on the game environment. We've found the above behavior is many times directly related to groups responsible for compromising World of Warcraft accounts; we take these issues very seriously. To better understand our position against exploitative activity and the risks involved, please review this article: http://us.battle.net/wow/en/services/anti-gold/ The exploitative activity that took place on this account violates the World of Warcraft Terms of Use.

What exactly can I say to get out of this perma ban, yes im an idiot for botting on my main accoutn which ive had for 8 years.
It is unusual for old accounts to get banned and yet you, myself, and one other all 8+ years have been closed.
Yeah its a bit odd. Whats your reasoning for wanting an unban? Or you going to restart and let all that time go wasted?
Well I have been banned many times over the years and every time it is just some automated ban no real gm behind it. I always just tell them to look at the evidence and they will see I am not doing anything wrong. It has worked many times hoping it will work again.
call them and say you've been a customer for 8 years, etc. Don't admit to anything, don't answer any incriminating questions, stay in the zone and play the old customer card. Tickets will definitely not work, do not even try and waste an appeal.
not sure.... they might answer and deny your appeal even if it's canceled, i've had canceled tickets marked as "resolved/answered". just keep trying to reach them. good luck
Phone support can't do anything about it. They will direct you to send web ticket. Because Account administration can only be contacted via web tickets.
If he has an authenticator on his account they will say that the first thing they do is check if he account is compromised and then proceed to say your account has an auth on it you liar! lol At least thats what they said to me. Next account will be without an auth.
