Few Questions I couldn't find answers too... 1. How can you start a subscription for a new wow account on a battle.net account that already has WOW on it? (or am I misunderstanding that?) 2. Have people been banned before just for playing on a IP that has already seen a ban? Just curious if it's fairly possible to be flagged before the botting even starts...
1. Go to your battle.net account and click the grayed out WoW to start a new WoW2, WoW3, etc. 2. *When* you do get banned, the appeal process is always a challenge saying "it wasn't me." Maybe you could tell them that your computer was hacked and that they were controlling the botting account from your house. Or that you were in prison and that it couldn't have been you. All I know is that I've been banned from many different IP's. I'm now botting another account from the same account that just got banned, from the same IP, and it was stuck in a loop for the past 8 hours running at a wall...and this has been a common thing for the past week. I also know that those last two appeal excuses don't work well, so when this one gets banned I'm going to have to be more creative.
2. I'm. I'm not trying to appeal anything just wanting to know that since I've been flagged if playing on the same account is smart.. Or if it really matters since its on the same ip... I'm sure it's a bit unknown but would be helpful if someone had some insight on the subject.. Thanks
I meant when the account does eventually get banned for botting. Same account, same IP, same MAC address, same payment info, whatever - Blizz is the only one with the answer for that, but I'm sure they can link any of that data to old banned accounts and "flag" if they wanted.
Thy don't care. If its a seperate account they treat it separately as if it was another person. Don't believe all this conspiracy crap around here.
From personal experience I can tell you they could not give a crap if it's the same account, not the same account, the same account different person, the same account same person but with a beard, the same account with a different character name but female this time, different account but played from the moon, different account with the same name and same address, different account same name and same address and same phone#, different account different name different phone# different payment information, different account different name different address different phone# different payment information different IP different DNA and also now driving a different car with a new GF. When you're caught you are caught and when you aren't you aren't. Doesn't matter if you have 2 other banned accounts under the same battlenet. If you are botting and you get caught it's done and for all we know it does NOT increase or decrease the chance of detection.Anyone that tells you anything different is simply speculating and frankly full of crap. I've tried it all... All of it... Every method you can think of I've tried. I've tried VPNs, virtual PCs, different PCs, different PCs with different MAC addresses. When you get caught they will ban you. Period. I've personally been running one of my account for about a year now, that has 2 other banned licenses under it and that account is still fine.
Don't think it matters, just think about university campus' internet sharing the same ip .... Like 100 wow player being monitored cause 1 guy got banned for botting, or everyone else getting a ban cause the guy next door is botting ? That wouldn't make sense
I started a new account after being banned with the same battlenet account, different IP address. I have even gone so far as have them hand my Guild Bank over to my new account. The ban is applied to the license key, new license key=not banned. My account shows Wow1 banned and Wow2 active.
I agree with this. They have processes in place to make it as "legal" and safe for them as possible to ban someone. I think when people get banned multiple times in a row, it's just because they constantly do the same thing - bot for 5 days straight, make 300k gold in a week, and transfer it to another account... like that's all normal behavior.
