So I finally received a 24hr hand slap. I only bot on a second account from my main account so I just let it run 24/7 on public profiles. My intent is to make some good private profiles but have not had the time to learn in's and out's and personally I got to 45 before getting my first ban. Is the 2nd ban still 24hrs? Also I would like to add I did not get any rollbacks.

I am sorry to inform you that your account has been suspended for 24 hours after being flagged for unattended gameplay. So its ok to bot, as long as your watching it. LoL
Happened to a friend of mine too a couple of days ago, got a 24hr ban, but no rollback when he logged back in yesterday \0/
It seems to me... that you made everything wrong you could do wrong. Botting 24/7, and there is no valid second view on this, is obvious. Nobody is able to play without a single break (eating, pissing, whatever...) ... a bot can. Using public profiles is of course not the way to go... its no secret. What does your intent to make good profiles to do with letting the bot run 24/7? In sum, act natural... I think it has been stated a gazillion times.
What they mean by unattended game play is obvious. So no its not ok to bot ^^, just cause your watching doesnt mean you're attending
Just to clear it up. I know I did everything wrong but really did not care. I have been botting for years and know what to do and what not to do. But with the punishment of a 24hr ban I figured I would see how long it would take for them to get me doing everything I could do wrong.
I just got disconnected from game saying I was no longer authorized to play the game. I tried to log in again, and it said I got suspended / banned. I haven't received the confirmation email yet. I haven't been botting 24/7. I have been botting about 8 hours a day, not 7 days a week. more like 5, with switching characters, taking small breaks (logging off), to make it look more like a real player. Also made my own paths..But had used the public profiles to start with to learn how to make them. Figured it would happen eventually.
Why does he get a 24h suspension yesterday and others get full bans? how does that fit? If it would have been software detection he would have been perma banned too right? So there is a little hope..or not? =)
