I wish they actually made BGbuddy PLAY the BG. Not just midfarming in WSG for example when flagcarriers and team-mates asking for aid. I wish the bot could run up and take the flag and use CC to stop enemy-players. Same goes for Arathi Basin. I've often seen my bot gank players that are around instead of actually trying to take the base while it's all free. Also at stbles 3-4 bots were ganking 1 single player while the base was free. Eventually they mounted up and lef the flag for what is it. It's just bad. The bots are based on honorfarmnig and not actually PLAY the BG and win it. And yeah, the pack moving thing, 9 people run the same route in Isle of Conquest run over the bridge towards Docks. Halfway the bridge the whole pack stops for some reason and turns around to run back to the beginning of the bridge to stand in a corner for about 5 seconds, before continueing the route. It's just so obvious. Also the wall-running when a gate is closed. See 5 bots running at a wall when the gate is closed. I really don't know what happened to BGbuddy, but there was a time when you actually couldn't really say if it was a bot or not. But yeah I think now it's the problem becuase 90% or the BG population are botters. Easy honor and easy XP when Call to Arms for example. Especially now when 85-90 leveling has been made so rediculously long. People CBA to level and turn on a bot and go to bed. But if I bot I do it not late at night, I do it during the day when I can monitor my bot from time to time in a few BG's. I'm not farming the whole day. No one does BG's the whole day. There are certain BG's I really try to avoid, such as Strand of the Ancients, since my bot just famrs honor on the beach and then when enemy players are gone it desides to stand half in the water, somewhere under the ramp and just do nothing at all untill the BG has ended. I'm also carefull with Isle of Conquest because of the wall-running and the obvious massive pack movement. I really like BGbuddy and hope it will get fixed soon so if will be "safer" again.

The only reason more people are using the BGbuddy right now is because there are few leveling profles, they don't know how to make their own, so they just let it bg. I'd expect it to thin out as more leveling profiles pop up. I'm guilty myself, I have done 85-90 twice in the BG's myself. I have almost 30 lvl 85's there is no way I'm going to put them to 90 on my own, HB is a Godsend.
Yes honor is good but its risky, archaeology is probably the best way to level atm hearing from other people. Honestly don't think Id let BGBuddy bot overnight ever again. Whats even worse is when you queue up with people from your realm and they notice you and harass you later saying they will report you. :/
