***Notice of Account Closure*** Account Name: WOW1 Reason for Closure: Terms of Use Violation -- Exploitative Activity: Abuse of the Economy 1)Were you using Honorbuddy, Gatherbuddy or both on the account? Gatherbuddy 2)If so, when was the last time?: Just now, got kicked offline while botting. 3)What profile were you using?: been switching from multiple herbs+mining profiles on Hyjal, Vashj, Twilight and Deepholm 4)What combat class were you using? if None Just put Default then the Classname: Feral druid 5)What plugins are you using?: none 6)How many hours per day did you bot for?: been botting less than 6 hours per day for about a week, and then I went crazy and botted for 24H and got banned just now 6.5)What honest percentage of time did you supervise your bot? 10% maybe. I was basically on the computer doing other stuff while bot running in the background and I babysit the bot and watch it every 15 minutes or so. 7)How many auctions per day did you have?: Well yesterday I posted like 300. Not on the banned acount but on the bank tone of my main account. (herbs and mines received from the bot by mails) 8)Did you Use Any Other Bots, Hacks, or Mods? Nope. 9)Was your account involved in gold selling? Not at all. 10)EU or US realm? US Please help me or give a little suggestion what I should do. This isn't my main account this is a new account I bought for botting. It has only 1 character, I RAF'ed it to 80 and then did herbs and mining to 85. I have been botting a few hours every day except for yesterday which I botted straight 24 hours until just now and got kicked offline saying account is banned. It confuses me why I received a ban instead of 72H suspension. I definitely did NOT sell gold or stuff. The only things I did was I mailed all the collected herbs and mines to my main account's bank tone and sell them from the bank tone. The botting account weren't really talking to anyone, or posting any auctions, or spamming a single word in trade. Why did I still get a perm ban... Also I didn't use VPN. I've been botting on the same IP for a few days. I wanna try to appeal to BLZ but what should I really say? Should I say I've been mining by myself or should I say I've been hacked? Please help me! Thanks!
I'm still fairly new to this whole botting business myself, but from other ban reports I've read, it looks like Blizz is looking heavily into RaF'd accounts, seen so many RaF ban reports the 10 days I've been here. Just an observation, I have yet to be banned, so can't help much, but I hope you get it back.
i see no chance to get your account unbanned, you rly ask why they instantly perm-banned you? which player comes back to wow after a break, and starting straight with mining and herbalism ONLY for x hours per day? please guys, use your brains before starting your bot...
As B4ldur pointed out, if it's the first infraction, there's a very good chance of recovery... and it certainly never hurts to give it a shot.
If you know what you are doing, you can get it back easily. http://www.thebuddyforum.com/honorbuddy-forum/47970-unban-method-ebook-10-pages.html Give that a try.
Well, sry for your loss, but then you sure asked for it. NEVER post more than max 30-40 stacks a day. Make new account and bot ONLY supervised questing. never bot afk. Bot while watchin tv, use laptop. I just watch movies on my 24 screen in my office room. using LogMeOut and stuckhelper. It sure helps with those alarms. ^^
It was unbanned. Well it's not a SoR account it's an RAF'ed account. I did say I was crazy to bot for 24 hours and I think that was the main problem.
I really don't think posting 30-40 stacks of auctions has to do with the ban. But the past 24 hours the bot mailed hundreds of stacks of herbs and mines to my bank tone and maybe that's why it got suspicious? Will trading be safer than mailing? If so I'll just have to trade those herbs into my main account maybe that will help then. Any suggestions?
I would recommended that you create a guild bank to dump your farmed goods into, that way you can have access to it with multiple toons and if one of your toons gets banned you still have access to that bank and can still possibly have all that you farmed and the gold that you have made. I have lost 2 accounts due to bot banns and this method has saved me a lot of saved goods and a ton of gold.
If you check his own post again he says "hundreds" of stacks last 24 hours. No wonder ge got banned lol.
