Any1 can give any advise what to do better next time? Don't mail herbs/ore to another acc? Better put it into Gvault? I would appreciate that
Don't use GB2. If you need to keep using it, there's not much you can do. Use Gathersafe plugin and set it to freeze when someone is near, but even that won't save you from stealthed characters. Remember, if someone sees you moving from node to node, they'll know almost instantly that you're a bot. GB2 as a botbase has awful movement and it looks incredibly awkward. It also acts the same way on every node, increasing chances of detection.
Hmm - yeah movement is really uhm yeah, ok. - any other way to make some gold than? Without GB2? Thanks for your advise already edit: a more or less "safe" way?
MoP GB2 is pretty safe ... as long as you dont use it longer than 4-6 hours ago nowadays and use randomization, just like you did! Better get different approach on the goldselling business then, like using more AH botting, and less GB2, to compensate to the temporary/permanent handycap to GB2. Have in mind, that in WoD, pretty sure these borderlines for GB2 farming would get removed in the first weeks/months, simply because they would generate thousands of false-positives on Blizzards side, lots of people will handfarm fresh WoD mats for easy fast gold!
