***Notice of Account Closure***

Account Name: ACCOUNT

Reason for Closure: Terms of Use Violation -- Exploitative Activity: Unauthorized Cheat Programs ("Hacks")

This account was closed because one or more characters were identified using an unauthorized cheat program, also known as a "hack." These programs provide character benefits normally not achievable in the World of Warcraft. Such benefits include, but are not limited to, increased speed, teleportation, or running through walls/boundaries. Use of these unauthorized programs harms the game environment because they offer an unfair advantage over other players and supersede the intended limits of the game.

Even if this is the result of account sharing, the account owner can still be held responsible for the penalty because of the impact it had on the game environment.

We've found the above behavior is many times directly related to groups responsible for compromising World of Warcraft accounts; we take these issues very seriously. To better understand our position against exploitative activity and the risks involved, please review this article: Blizzard Support

The exploitative activity that took place on this account violates the World of Warcraft Terms of Use. We ask you take a moment to review these terms at Blizzard Entertainment: Blizzard Legal Documentation. Note that additional Terms of Use violations may result in more severe actions against this account, up to and including permanent closure.

If you believe your account was compromised, please submit a Customer Support Ticket via Battle.net: https://us.battle.net/support/ticket/submit.

I'll admit I was being kinda greedy with the hours that it was running, but otherwise no warnings and no whisper harass:

The template email claims goldselling, even though I wasn't, but I don't like my chances of getting it back

 

I just got my main account banned as well. Abuse of the economy

 

just lost all 3 of my bot accounts.. also no warnings or anything

 

Good thing I just logged both of mine off for the restart then
Good luck on gettin em back guys. I'm gettin some sleepy-time.
<--- Tired Panda.

 

Updated my sig. And sent in tickets for one account.

 

I was banned as well brought the bot yesterday ran bg bot for 2 hours today, and farmed for 3 hours...later on at work talked to friends on the remote app for android nothing was wrong I come home and banned. my bot account and my personal account no warnings nothing =(

 

I would never use BG-bot because it really looks bottish.

This has also been stated many times on this forum.

Allthough , losing accounts is never fun i guess....

I feel for ya guys.

 

Wasnt using the BGbot. Was farming. Looks like there only banning people with two or more accounts.

 

I have 2 accounts and I've never been banned.

Been using GB , PB , GrindBot , BgBot(earlier) , But now i mainly use LazyRaider in Bg , Arenas and raids/dungeons.

One thing i've noticed is for every EU ban there's atleast 10 US bans.

Looks like the Americans are more monitored

Also if you end up in away-state you can get reported for being away and this automatically triggers a bot-check from Blizzard.

 

welp, just got my account back. I consider myself lucky and might lay low for a bit

I was only using gather buddy, changing zones kinda regularly but still had it running a high number of hours.

 

1 of my accounts got banned, was only using Archeology...

 

Well. One of my accounts is gone for good. Used the whole hacked story and nothing. Fuck US servers im going to EU and botting up a storm.

 

Well im trying my sob story now. If this dosnt work ill try calling them in the morning. Even tho i suffer from really bad anxiety. But ill try anything to get my main account back. I could care less about my botting account. But im still going to EU.

 

It's not impossible to get abuse of economy bans lifted if you didn't sell gold. At least I had mine unbanned by saying that any gold "transfers" made were for friends/alt accounts whatever.

 

I suggest you use a low-population Realm for the levelling part.

I have gotten 4-5 whispers saying: are you a bot ?

I've always been able to sweet-talk the players so they wouldn't report me..

 

Nope they could care less about sob storys since they dont even read the support ticket. Rather they just respond with the same generic shit. But w/e
