Today, i created 2 new bot account and leveled up them with HB for all day. This evening i logged out them, and they aren't banned. So i don't think this is a HB detect, i also lose my other 6 account logged out but created 2 month ago..!
The information was logged from 4/29/15 to 5/7/15, according to one of the posts. But you keep on botting and see what happens.
Well i had 3/4 banned. two used with garrisonbutler and nothing else and the other was questing. Other one is still active but i dont think ive botted it for a couple of weeks. Take from that what you will.
yea, everyone know hows how the bot works and what blizzard does knows this isn't a software detection. etherway we need to investigate to make sure everything we can do to protect accounts will be done, honorbuddy should be back soon people just need to be patient.
It certainly doesn't mean they are done banning people, they may just be collecting more data for next time.
my accounts made in april were banned my account made in may was not banned all were linked with botting activity.
That is a good point actually I am certain they know I bot, I personally think I am being watched. Either way I have been watching them with a sharp eye lol, especially when they tried to scan my folders.
Wrooooooong. What does that prove anyways? Lol. I haven't even been on in a week and I was banned. Can you guess why? Curious you leveled them with HB all day when HB is down though.
Yes it is, and blizzard is doing it smart, instead of instant bans they're compiling a list and throwing them all down at once....so you don't know exactly what you were doing when you set off their alarms.
The last time I used HB was on April 24th, 2015. I got banned tonight. I only used HB for approx. 30 minutes a day (Garrisonboss).
Near the end of March Blizzard added some very specific HB detection code to their clients (New 32-bit Detection Method Added). This fits in with your time-frame of April 24th - which is way after it was added. My bet is bans before this time period will come down to player reports and investigated activity (economy, mob kills, etc). March seems to be the time when they began the "we can 100% see/detect you botting" monitoring and infrequent bans and everything hit the crescendo today.
People always get detected it's just more noticeable since it is on more of a mass scale now, usually they only pick on economy players, farmers etc, I think Blizzard is real mad about losing that court case.
Yeah I call BS On this one. I botted pretty heavily last week using prof buddy + fishing buddy, but always using custom profiles and no ban for me.
@sack i confirm 3 accs 2 nearly 24/7 1 only for raid etc. NO BAN since i Use HB. My HB is Running with vpn while WOW is runing direct.
