So I want to share with you, I bought for 3 days Honorbuddy and on 3rd day now got banned, was using GB2, in every 1h or 2h changed profiles for different farming directions, so this didn't help, I also used all plugins like Shutup, Avoid Players, Jumpy, i was monitoring my pc almost all the time with Splashtop, farming wasnt also all the time, just for few h, so there it is. I don't buy the bullshit that I was not carefull enough, all get the banana sooner or later, waiting now for response from the GM.
Someone can easily target you and right-click player report... it's not like it used to where you'd get a message test of "hi, are you there?" doesn't happen anymore which is why I gave up trying to make an auto-reply plugin. When you build up enough reports you get banned, I think sometimes they use a common sense decision.. like they just go by how many player reports you got since they can ban you for no reason anyway according to the ToS you signed, it also helps if you do normal stuff like Arena and Dungeonbuddy etc, because if it looks like you're actually using the account (most just farm) then you usually avoid ban but not always (it just helps).
yes, they gave me 72h, like I said few h a day monitoring all the time, maybe it was from high nods per hour.
I just wish there was a way to know for 100% what was the reason for the BAN, so I can avoid it, becouse If they cought me again - my game licances is done.
Did not put anything in AH, sold everything via COD to some dude, for hours it was random about 1h then change rout that again bot was changing profiles all the time, so I wont game same rout, but for now, I think i'm done botting, becouse they just have a way of knowing who use GB2, it's not safe like all think, even alot of plugins, monitoring, chatting in game while bot can't save you.
Drejz, i only wanna know if u admitted ur crime and asked for a second chance or not, or should i lie again ?
Lie, lie and lie again. to keep it short - I said that im a little brother of the dude who owns the account, and if he finds out i used bot he will rape me in my asshole before meals.
There are a few approaches to take, for starters just refute it and act like you have been wronged, they don't have any PHYSICAL evidence you were botting, just player reports, otherwise HB would be detectable and we'd all be banned, if you act slightly angry and confused most times in my experience they will lift it. That or you can play like you just happened across this application that said it would help you out and you had no idea it was against the TOS and that you will never do it again kind of mess, I have also heard of people getting unbanned for this too. Most importantly if you do nothing they assume they were correct, but since they have no physical evidence every time its denied request that the appeal be moved up to higher powers continually and they will usually just assume that they goofed and lift the ban.
i just admitted botting like ive seen other people do in threads recently.. i still didnt get a reduced bann.. got this reply : Thank you for your continued correspondence.

However, further inquiries regarding this issue will no longer receive a reply. I feel so discrimintade that i didnt get a second chance when others got ( for almost exact same bans ). there is even people on the formus admitting botting with a preivous ban for it which got it appeald.
correct it doesnt make ANY difference WHAT you do, as long as you are actually running GB2 for more than a couple hours a day you will get banned, as you found out sometimes in only 3 days, other times in a couple weeks, but 100% banned pretty soon. You seem to have figured it out on just a 3 day HB trial, so many other botters here refuse to believe it and keep trying again and again with more retarded strats like changing IPs and HW IDs and MAC addresses, randombuddy every 10 min, logout every 15 min, whatever crazy shit. and then bitch on this forum why they are on their 10th lost account in 3 months. it's hilarious when the devs reply to this issue though, they completely deny it. GB2 is super safe guys!
Just got hit this morning, 3gb acc 2 of them first offense they all got perma ban, apeal already denied on all acc. i dont care enough to create my own report thread
This dont seem right for 3 days? na i dont believe it.. they wont ban you for 3 days of botting they usually have to get a tons of reports or an actual Gm took his time and went to see in in the act.. all this is believable just not that it went down in 3 days.. either your account has been involved in botting before or you went 24/7 HAM on botting for 3 days non stop.
