From what I saw, you left Dungeonbuddy unattended for 9 hours, spamming low lvl dungeons in a semi-random group? Or I read it wrong?
The most LFD levelers are either experienced rerollers or people, which have been in touch with any kind of botting software for WoW, most likely our lovely HB, so it is very easy for them to recognize the botting characters in these low-level dungeons. The sad story is the following: Some of them do actively report bots, indeed. So, it is hazard to bot DB with randoms nowadays, it was safe enough few years ago, but not anymore. Thats why its much better to do it with your own or friends 5 man party. For example, once one of my dpsers for the own 5man Dungeonbuddy group got DCed etc, and the LFD tool invited 1x random, which for less than 3-4min started to spam the instance chat, that our healer was bot, and initiated vote kick for him. But the "sad" truth was that all the others were bots, so he got no chance
Thanks folks for trying to ascertain what the reason was, as I mentioned, I knew full well what to expect with levelling this way, I'm not looking for people to pick faults in what I was doing I was simply putting the ban report in to help spot any potential trends. I'm already back up and running, now level 60 and going strong. Sticking to one main character now!
You should be never be unattended in Dungeon buddy better yet get a 5 man team and you will never be reported.
I beg to differ regarding them being useless, I have out DPS'd the rest of the party frequently. It stays close to the tank and pretty much looks normal, yeah you get the odd blip but that's why I monitor so frequently via LogMeIn. Reporting bots though, are you for real?
I dont know what you mean look real. Would you like me to record a bot in a random dungeon, they look all bot like for sure using waypoints and walking around invis things and so on but then again you can look at code's 5 man team setup video and see how bot like it really is.
