      OKay,
      I've been thinking about this.. WoW is specifically targeting botting progs as 3rd party but yet it wont ban say Curse addons? Or Zygor addon?
      WTF? Why not?
      In effect (&IMHO) they are also 3rd party progs, I've used them both. Zygor takes you by the hand & leads you from one spot to the next. Some Curse addons do almost the same. Many Curse addons help you with the auction house.

      So, what makes them so different then HB? The fact that HB can truly "bot" you, making you move around? And the others are more passive?

      Well, sorry but shoot on that, if I'm playing but just have HB open on my desktop I can get banned? Well then why the hell not for actively running Curse & Zygor? I'm not bashing any of the progs, I happen to like things about Curse & Zygor, I'm just thinking its a bit unfair to single out certain progs that may be open but not running. Jesus, whats next? The "Govt" scanning my computer for "porn"? :confused:

      They don't mention anywhere that all 3rd party software is targeted... the policy clearly states "Unapproved 3rd party software" which is hacks, bots etc. I'm pretty sure they know what curse and Zygor is used for and don't see it effecting the game in anyway.

      Slight difference, none of those are "automated" - thats why they're legal

      read carefully
      WoW addons, written in lua, loaded by WoW itself, are by default NOT unauthorized
      there were addons that did unauthorized stuff to the gameclient, which where removed and the functionality was disabled
