I got 14 banned on 3 different pcs, different ips, leveled with dungeonbuddy, all raf linked, and it has been only 5 days since there were botting. I guess arch bots are targeted atm.
Kanso, would u mind sharing the ban mail? Since Abuse of Economy is not regular botting ban reason, but one for selling/buying gold or similar. Have you appealed already?
I also had 5/5 banned last night. All were doing arch and received abuse of economy ban on all of them. I do sell gold but not from any of the accounts that were farming archaeology.

Same thing happened to my two accounts last night. Will call them Sat and try to get them unbanned - I think it should work. First time ban on the accounts... I was using Archeology to level. "Reason for Closure: Terms of Use Violation -- Exploitative Activity: Abuse of the Economy"
