i CR'd in raid and also massively farmed... so im not shocked it happened but kinda shitty. oh well atleast its only a 6 month ban for me.... nothing really to do in the game till Legion anyways....
No one can answer questions like this with certainty. I don't use a proxy, run virtual machines, or any of the other precautions everyone else takes. From my experience Blizz only bans the license that you botted on. I have multiple licenses attached under one account. I have had two bans in my many years of botting, and they only banned the account I botted on. If I by any more accounts I will continue to attach them to the same Bnet.
I was botting like crazy the last month. On 2 Accounts. CR, BG Buddy, Mills Bg, Dungeonbuddy, gathering, archeologybuddy, fishingbuddy. A few friends got banned but not me. The fact is, i wasn't using the battlenet launcher, i was using a *****ed wow.exe file to enable stuff like nudepatches. Maybe because of that, i didn't got the silent little update that would have caught me botting.
Two of the accounts that I just got back from the last ban wave, got suspended for 18 months. Only ever used Garrisonbuddy.
This is my first ban since I first starting botting in 2010.... I missed the previous ban wave bc I stopped playing for a year...All my accounts were linked to a single battle net
For sure HB was detected, account got flagged and they checked on the user's client somehow... I'm offline for almost 3 weeks, used CR to check on the LFR a couple of times and also got a 18 months suspension. So, for sure, it seems that Blizz has the ability to know who is or isn't attaching HB to their client.
Just got back into WoW yesterday, used the bot to hit level 20 and didn't get banned, only tripwired after the massban.
so far as I can tell on my own account...they only banned the botted on accounts have 4 in total 2 were bots and 2 weren't ..only the bots have been suspended so far
I just disputed through PayPal all the accounts and money I paid Blizzard in the last month. Too many accounts bought to lose them like that.
