Paid Account (First Free Month at the moment) Both of my Accounts got permabanned last night, i am very frustrated right now, both accounts were still in their free month. I wrote a ticket, not sure if they will unbann my accounts
if the devs actually ever did the right thing and put up a giant notice on their purchase page saying "WARNING: IF YOU USE GATHERBUDDY FOR 14 HOURS PER DAY YOU WILL QUICKLY LOSE YOUR ACCOUNT", it would save botters so many thousands of dollars and hours wasted leveling new characters...
The most frustrating thing is that both accounts are only 2 weeks old, i hope i can get them back, but my hopes are not to high. Getting an account banned after a few days of actual farming (one week to lvl up) cannot be profitable, i hope i get a statement from the honorbuddy team
Im certainley no expert but a fresh account botting for 14hrs a day is just crazy, of course your going to get banned. I believe and it's only my opionion fresh accounts that do nothing but bot GB, no raids LFR etc. are always going to be banned alot quicker. I bot on my main and admintley I dont use GB but for the past month I have botted for 8hrs every night on skyshards and Arch unattended and never had a problem. I believe it's because I do other things on the account like a normal player would. Having said that I will probally get banned now lol. I would suggest not botting so hard on a fresh account.
Its called COMMON SENSE, mate! We are not in postmodern USA, where you always buy microwaves, labeled with BIG warning: "DO NOT USE THE OVEN TO DRY ANIMALS OR BABIES."
I wrote a ticket, but blizzard sticks to the perma bann. If i can only farm for 1-4 hours a day its very difficult for me to make a profit out of it. I read so many guides and stories about botting, i never thought i get banned after 2 weeks. Now i have a ton of costs (PC for botting, energy, my time put in to the project, wow licenses etc.). @imtakinusrs: Common sense is a good thing, but as i wrote, i have studied a lot before i startet with botting, for 1-2 months i did nothing else then read guides etc. I NEVER saw any statement that using gatherbuddy for mor then 4 hours a day will get you banned immediately (3 Days lvl 90, 2 days farming then banned). I did not farm for 14 hours straight, i used a HBRelog setup like 2-3 hours of farming, then idle etc. I even let it idle over night.
