      All,

      I went to sleep last night and woke up to see that my bot had done no leveling at all and just died and respawned over and over again.

      I feel like this might be a red flag to Blizzard. What do you recommend I do at this point?

      Not go totally AFK like that unless you're doing something that is designed to be completely AFK'able (like arch buddy or gathering) ;-)

      What profile / CC etc where you using?

      Other than what Negarious already said, I would not walk away from your bot for the next day or so just in case Bliz sends a GM to check out what's going on... or better yet, just play manually for a few days to completely play it safe.

      If I had thrown up a flag like that, that's what I would do...

      Well, I just got PM'd by a GM. As soon as I saw that I filled out the account recovery form stating my account was hacked. Hopefully this doesn't hurt too bad. :D

      Also, I was using Kick's profile pack but I'm now moving to something different because I was only 21 and it was taking me to lvl 40s.

      We'll see what happens. I'll keep you posted.

      I have since lost the log after a reinstall.

      It was walking into an Alliance area over and over again.

      I would be very careful about filling out account recovery forms online... make sure its not a phising attempt by checking the URL first.

      I guess you mean that spot between Northern Barrens and Stonetalon Mountains?
      Wiped to that spot around 100 times a night one week ago.
      The account hasnt been banned yet.

      I wouldn't even agree that arch is afkable. 3 nights ago I spent 9 hours flying into a tree

      Seriously, going afk for hours or days with a profile you haven't written or tested before is just bad period. No matter how trustworthy the profile writers are, i use Kicks 80-85 and Firelands quests myself, you should always-always-always run it at least once while at most semi-afk. Watching TV, or surfing , whatever just to make sure it doesn't do what this did.

      This way you can edit it yourself or ask why it's doing this...before dying 120 times ;) Everyone makes mistakes. Runtos should/could/would better be flytos. End of the day blackspots are your friend.

      Honestly if this isn't a clear illustration of 'we need an option/plugin to auto-logout after x deaths', I don't know what is.
