Banwave 22-11-2016 Discussion

If it was a banwave everyone gets hit.

 

I am watching other bots and just when you look at them you're 100% sure they're bots. My profiles are more natural. However we both do the same thing. I got banned a week ago - they were still alive. This time probably all of us got banned cause they're off now, ill see at the morning. Last time i was also in "bot guild" but he was too. I got banned - he did not. Now tried without guild -> banned again. There must be other thing that is not cleared after full pc format.

I always do the full pc format -> both partitions, no excuses. It worked many times for me. But last month i get banned 4-7 days after launch and it is always economy ban.

 

So according to what you say, youll always be banned right? Even if you randomly use the bot for 20mins in 1-2 weeks ? Because that whats happent to me!

 

As soon as you start a bot on any account, you're already at risk of being banned. Blizz can go back 1-3 weeks prior to ban waves to store data and then they ban in waves. Never bot on an account you're not willing to lose.

 

so ive been waiting what... 3 weeks now? is this bot officially dead? seems like the last time they gave us a response saying they found and fixed it.. 10 new im banned popped up in the ban forums

 

6 acccounts been running for a full week now with a schedule. No bans. So stop the QQ.

 

1 week...lol.

You realize how ignorant that statement is, right? Just because you've been running for a week, it in no way means you're safe.

 

yes it does. if someone is botting on 6 accounts and not getting bans and there are no reported CR bans it means it safe

 

Yup, just like botting safe will make your account safe during a banwave...

Your continued stupidity never ceases to amaze.

You come up with funds for Legendarybuddy yet?

 

It means the whole "I ran for 2 hours and got banned" is BS - Thats what it mean.

 

Still botting with CR only. Probably flagged for next banwave

 

No, it doesn't mean that at all...

There's too many factors that play into botting to give any definitive answer one way or the other.

Some people bot for years and somehow manage to dodge every banwave and some people bot a starting zone and get banned. It doesn't mean anyone is right or wrong, but it definitely doesn't mean your account is any more safe now than it was a month ago when the banwaves were rolling out.

 

"Fact is, if the bot was detected, i would have been banned by now."

Thats called an Opinion Not a fact.

Does anyone here have inside information on Blizzards ban tendencies? ive seen a lot of people saying they store and then ban in waves.. Ive seen people here writing that they were banned within 10 hours of committing an economy abuse or power farming herbs. The "Fact" is no one has any idea whats going on

 

Guys ive been banned 1-2 weeks after using the bot for 20mins!!

 

As rollinhammer1988 pointed out, what you gave is an opinion, not a fact.

Everything Blizz has done in the past leads people to believe that detection events occur over weeks and then they act on all the accounts over a 24 or so hour period.

There's absolutely nothing you can conclude from your personal experience.

 

Call it what you will. Im just giving my experience. Take it or leave it.

I just find it very hard to believe that anyone gets banned within 20 mins.

 

Your lack of belief in their statement doesn't make your statement any more believable either.

Everyone's experiences are different and blizz's complete randomness doesn't help.

 

If you play thru a blacklisted VPN you will be banned within 15-30 minutes for "Abuse of Economy".

 

Er, no. A full pc format and MAC change and whatnot does not matter whatsoever. Please do not go through that trouble anymore and save yourself some time, it's complete nonsense.
I used it on multiple pc's, multiple locations, multiple accounts en throughout the years as well (3rd new pc, 2nd internet line, different Mac and even home address since first ban in May '15).
They just knew how to detect HB. That's all. Shocking right?

 

This is the right answer. Blizz tracks way too much information on you and your accounts to ever think that taking this measures will do anything to keep you safe.

Re-formatting your hard drive also does absolutely nothing to change a MAC address. The only way to change a MAC is to use an actual program to change the MAC.
