If HB isn't released today, this will be the 3rd deadline the devs missed. So no, people complaining are not being unreasonable. EDIT for clarification: Deadline 1: Aug. 28. Patch 5.0.4 was released and the developers had plenty of notice and opportunity to patch HB in advance. Deadline 2: Sept. 4. Forum admin Hawker wrote "We should have a working HB within the next week." Deadline 3: Sept. 7. After missing Deadline 2 on Sept. 4, the HB team posted this thread on Sept. 5: [OFFICIAL][Patch 5.0.4] Honorbuddy will be offline until Friday September 7
what deadlines are those? "down for at least a week" or similar doesn't mean "it will be up in exactly 7 days or 168 hours or 10080 minutes or 604800 seconds from the moment of this announcement" its still the 7th somewhere in the world right?
So there is Friday which they beat, the api version of the bot is out so the people who write CC's and Plugins can start writing the things we have come to rely on with the bot. What where the other two deadlines? I know they said about a week and then a few days more after a week but I don't think those are deadlines. Those were estimates which I am sure reflected their best guess at the time, and they were mostly put out to appease the masses who couldn't foresee a major patch affecting a program that needs to run actively in a game without the game client realizing that it is there. I will say it is these times though that cause me to miss GatherBuddy 1, I miss that old macro bot.
Since you asked... Deadline 1: Aug. 28. Patch 5.0.4 was released and the developers had plenty of notice and opportunity to patch HB in advance. Deadline 2: Sept. 4. Forum admin Hawker wrote "We should have a working HB within the next week." Deadline 3: Sept. 7.

I would rather wait another week and have a bot that doesnt get me banned, than have a bot now, that will get me banned, because it moves weird or triggers something at a Warden scan. Have some patience. Isnt it better than getting it now and then wasting x $ and a few weeks botting the account to lvl 85 ? Sorry if this doesnt make sense. English isnt my maternal language and I doubt being drunk is gonna help ;P
So... Just so that I understand... you expected them to have it PRE PATCHED before the patch was released??????????? hawker wrote :: we""""""""""""""""""""""""""" SHOULD""""""""""""""" have a working HB Sep was NOT a deadline. it ws an estimate... SHOULD does not mean WE WILL. its still sep 7th here in los angeles, california.... and honorbuddy is not offline if you want to be technical..
I don't see the problem with noamchomsky's grammar? 'So no, people complaining are not being unreasonable'. Perfectly fine.
