Here is what GM told me, in english! Your account was permanently suspended due to use of third party programs, which is against the Terms of Use (Blizzard Entertainment: Battle.net Terms of Use), the relevant part of which can be found in this article : http://eu.blizzard.com/support/article/50078 When running, the World of Warcraft client may monitor your computer's random access memory (ram) and/or cpu processes for unauthorized third party programs running concurrently with World of Warcraft. An unauthorized third party program as used herein shall be defined as any third party software, including without limitation any addon or mod, that in Blizzard Entertainment's sole determination: I. enables or facilitates cheating of any type; II. allows users to modify or hack the World of Warcraft interface, environment, and/or experience in any way not expressly authorized by Blizzard Entertainment; or III. intercepts, mines, or otherwise collects information from or through World of Warcraft. In the event that World of Warcraft detects an unauthorized third party program, Blizzard may a) communicate information back to blizzard entertainment, including without limitation your account name, details about the unauthorized third party program detected, and the time and date the unauthorized third party program was detected; and/or b) exercise any or all of its rights under section 6 of this agreement, with or without prior notice to the user. The use of such programs or files is clearly unfair to the World of Warcraft community playing regularly and is not tolerated on our servers. Following a review of your case, we can confirm that such program has been used on several occasions by your account, and that the subsequent action taken is appropriate. We would not look to enter into any further communications on this issue as the matter is now considered closed. Please be advised that sanctions in relation to this matter will not be taken against any new accounts you may wish to create, but the characters from your cancelled account will remain irretrievable. If you should wish to create a new account, you will need to obtain a new and unused CD key with a retail copy of the game. If you wish to review our current Rules and Policies, they can be found at: http://eu.blizzard.com/support/index/wow_policy http://eu.blizzard.com/en-gb/company/about/termsofuse.html Kind Regards, Game Master Customer Support Services Blizzard Entertainment
ye that should me mostly the same in english except that the gm wrote at the end , that the ban is just for the account and not for the chars on it which means that the chars can get easily transfered to a new account without having a bann.
"Please be advised that sanctions in relation to this matter will not be taken against any new accounts you may wish to create, but the characters from your cancelled account will remain irretrievable. If you should wish to create a new account, you will need to obtain a new and unused CD key with a retail copy of the game." you are wrong imo... at least according to his translation. I have no idea of how accurate it is though.
they ban people for 3rd party programs all the time, all it means is your bot was so obvious that there no doubt to them, that you where botting, unlike when they do "exploitation of the economy"
It wasnt a translation btw, i got this mail after calling them about my ban. But ye, all accounts closed and i wont bot anymore.
