Inevitable discussion thread for Tripwire event on 30-Jun-2016

I was just having a conversation with a friend today because he wanted to band together for mythic 5 mans and I said "I'm not making any solid plans because Blizz will probably ban my account once legion is released."

Come home to this, I didn't have my bot running while I was working, but still pretty coincidental.

 

Just botted for a few days and its my first tripwire. I'm kinda excited what happens next... lol x)
Tripfire triggered during my bot break so I feel relatively safe.

 

Its not a lie

 

I just use it for leveling characters and I don't really reap much benefit from Hb besides saving time

 

Literally a year since I used hbuddy last and the first time I try to attach it there's a tripwire lol. God what a slap in the face that'd be if I got hit. Client wasn't even all the way loaded into the game. I attached it during character selection and it tripped. Gonna go find the tin foil.

 

I agree. He which shall not be named spends all of his time berating newbies and answering questions that weren't directed toward him with either sarcasm or disdain. Definite trolling.

 

No more personal attacks (in first- OR third-person)...

This stops now! Talking about a Community member in third-person terms is not acceptable either.

The user you are discussing has received many (serious) mutes over time. One significant mute was earned recently. We agree he gets abrasive more than occasionally, but he has the common sense not to step over the forum rules. Unlike some. Also, not everyone disagrees with him the way you guys do.

Give it a rest. Put him on your ignore list. But, talking about individual users either directly by name, or third-person references is not acceptable. Any more of this, and we'll be handing out infractions.

"Dont panic"
Ha! Easy to say. There always was banweave after every tripwire event.

 

This is actually incorrect. I was online for the last one in May and did not receive a ban and I am pretty sure many others didn't. Have faith.

 

Guess you missed the warning. Have a 'day off' so you can catch up.

Hint: Personal attacks [size=-2](in ANY form)[/size] are NOT acceptable. What on EARTH makes you think this is okay?

Ive only been back botting less than 24 hours and this its like as soon as the bans are up they instantly try to see if the botters came back botting.

 

Any bans yet? IF this was sign for upcoming bans when will they come? How was it in last tripfire event - bans?

 

exactly the same for me and after that disconnect

 

How long takes this tripwire event normally??

 

1 or 2 days most of the time

 

Depends on what Blizz changed and how complex anaylsis and Tripwire changes (if needed) are.

 

Bye bye Testraid in 13/13 mythic guild this evening ...

 

What about making something totally crazy and play this Testraid "manually"?
You will not believe it but that's still possible

 

I don't even remotely feel sorry for you LOL

 

Any decent botter should be able to play "by hand" at least on 70-80% of his/her favorite Combat Routine level.

So performing bit lower in raids is not something, which most players, including Raid Leaders would even notice, at least not for a night or two.

Plus, this is not multibotting on 5 bots team, for example.

Last time I checked, Mythic raiding is usually not botted 100% afk, but just handling the rotations to the CR, then manually move, target and follow the bosses mechanics etc.
