      I'm going to gather a couple of stats on the recent bans and try to compile them to possibly see, what is being targeted by Blizzard right now.
      Fill out the Form and I will make sure to combine the results in the first post.

      Please don't post in this thread, unless you post about your ban.
      Discussion Thread: CLICK ME[HR][/HR]
      1) SoR Account or Paid Account:
      2) EU or US:
      3) Last time you botted (Be honest!):
      4) Hours/Day you botted:
      5) Bot used (Gatherbuddy, BGbuddy, Questing):
      6) Custom Profile or Public Profile:
      7) Have you been selling gold:


      [HR][/HR]Please try to keep your posts as compact as possible, so I can gather the information easier.

      SUMMARY
      Bans counted: 34 Users (239 Accounts)
      [HR][/HR]
      Paid: 136 | SoR 103
      EU: 237 | US: 2
      Gatherbuddy: 236 | Questing: 3 | Grinding: 0 | Dungeons: 0 | Battlegrounds: 0
      Custom Profiles: 229 | Public Profiles: 10


      [HR][/HR]
      Hypothesis 1
      : All accounts were EU, it doesn't matter wheter it is SoR or Paid, mostly GatherBuddy users were banned.

      Hypothesis 2: HonorBuddy is not detected, it is gathering that is somehow being targeted now. EZbot/Crawlerbot users have been banned as well!

      Hypothesis 3: Blizzard has been taking very harsh actions against gatherbots during the last week, even long time experienced botters have been hit. => BE CAREFUL ABOUT GATHERBOTTING AT THIS TIME!

      *UPDATED* 02.05.2013 (incl post #42)

      Ur inaccurate.. you missed one entry where someone was questing.
      A few minutes later, someone else posted "questing" as well.

      So GB only, as your summary suggests? Nope.
