You want suggestions but you dont tell us anything at all. How is anyone supposed to help you? Fill out a ban template.
Right now Im going to say you are probably fucked. EU is going total Nazi on anything to do with dungeons right now and I have not seen anyone in the last while get anything back from an appeal. GL with your appeal. Question, how long after you traded gold for the gtc did the ban hit? Did you trade the gold face to face? You traded the gold from a botting account? Couple of tips for you. Never trade from your bots. Ever. If you want to trade gold the safest way to do so is to do AH trades or guild bank invites. Always have an account thats a "mule". Let him do all your dirty work for you. Bots are just to bot and deposit gold to a guild bank. Never bot on an account you do not want to lose. Even if you do not bot on your "main" account there is a chance to lose it. If a GM decides to blanket ban you he will ban even your main even if you never botted on it before. Hope this helps alittle.
About 2 hours. Yes Yes Every tip helps!!! Thank you. Haven't played in a year or so, started again a month ago. Never botted for money, just for gtc and never on main. I know it's a risk you take and it's "just" a game. But it still hurts, this is my first ban. Never even had a suspension.
Based on your answers Im going to assume you got banned for the trade and not the botting. In your appeal Id actually mention that you traded gold for a game time card. Since blizzard is considering allowing this in the future you may have a little luck with it. Problem is Im sure they have looked at your bots history and noticed they were in dungeons. I think its a long shot you will get them back but who knows. GL
I've appealed, they've denied!
