      Ok so lots of us are waiting for the questing beta so thought we can all have a "get to know you" session while we wait. So lets here everyone's age/sex/location and why you started botting. I'll go first :

      Age : 32
      Sex : Not as often as i'd like (Male)
      Location : Staffordshire, UK

      Why i started botting : I first started playing wow when TBC came out. I hand levelled a warlock to 70 and thought "Oh my god that was boring" but loved the endgame content. I then discovered glider :)

      Why i started botting : After my CSS/CS1.6 Clan disbanded we all came to WoW and got to 60 and done alot of TBC Raiding, then the expansion came out and i decided to sell accounts then came accross Glider and it went from there really , altho even now i prefer to hand level rather than bot :p

      Why?: cause it gives a whole new twist to playing wow, and I've started with glider which was nice but I was too scared to use it too often but now we got this in return.
      So now I'm a heavy type botter and using everything I can ingame to make my play time a proper fun run!

      Why I started botting: Blizzard banned my very first account before i even knew you could bot in this game. So i did some research and been botting since... TAKE THAT BLIZZARD!!!! :p

      Why I still bot: its like a real time puzzle... always changing.. always having to adapt..

      Started botting originally with glider to get from 60-70 when TBC came out, since then had a break from wow all together until wotlk. Handlevelled to 80 but got bored of the class so bought honorbuddy :D Thought it was so good 2 days later i bought GB too! Thanks for everything <3

      I started botting once I realized that this game could be cheated like any other game. I was always trying to find ways to cheat in games, I thought it was more fun than playing the games themselves! My buddy had told me it was impossible to cheat in this game, so after a few weeks of playing legit ( getting only my first char to 31ish) I found Glider, and from then on I was in love. I was dumb and probably spent a week or two straight in Thousand needles or whatever it's called but never got banned, my first ban came year or so later when I was hit by the first ban wave on here :(

      Started first with a fishbot on mmowned (this was quite a while ago) and then moved on to glider. I made enough gold just to get by with selling golden fish sticks and get some proper gear for my main in bc. Stopped botting when wotlk came out and played manually until I discovered gb then I got my main banned. At first it was just so I could get extra gold (remember this was when we had 1 spec and I was a resto druid so I could barely kill anything). Now its mostly for fun and to see just how much I can get.

      Why i started botting : I find it more enjoyable to bot than to actually play the game. I actually played this game from Beta until about 10 months ago when I left to bot another game and release. I came back to wow with full intentions of never actually playing it. This has been successful so far....

      I started botting because..... well I really have no idea... I was in Aion and there were tons of bots, thought I would investigate and I found Nesox's Mr. Fishit... further investigation (left by Nesox cookie crumbs) led me here. I bought a one year of GB and I was fascinated enough to give HB a go.

      So that leads me to another questions... Is WoW the only game our wonderful devs build bots for? We already know 3 work on it full time and 3 others part time or something like that :)

      Well I got started because I got tired of the constant grind to make gold...Now I have more fun botting than playing for real. In fact I have let my subscription lapse on my main....lol

      Started botting my first character at 70 not too long after WOTLK came out, I used Pirox. Always hated the setup of that. Friend of mine found HB, recommended it, I purchased HB and shortly after GB - use both regularly.

      3 level 80's, one hand levelled, one hand levelled to 70 then PVP'd to 80 with pirox, and the other completley botted to 70 and then I used dungeon finder to do the last 10 myself.

      All in all, very satisfied with how things are going - looking forward to the questing release to get my DK/Priest to 80!
