Everyones getting BANNED

There is absolutely a script that automatically bans, I called Blizzard and they verified they have implemented a new system that automatically detects when you're botting, my assumption it has to do with non talking + long hours online. I was botting on 6 new accounts for roughly just over 60 hours and they got suspended automatically for 72 hours, I also noticed my friends 6 accounts got suspended as well after 60 hours, then suddenly, my 2 year old accounts botting on a whole different location (My work location, completely different IP) also got banned, but since ive been botting my work location 2 year old accounts for 8 months 24/7 nonstop, it was very odd to me that suddenly after all this time botting 24/7 id get banned there, totally different IP and acount not related to these 6 new accounts, (Different ip since the 6 new are being run at my home, and my 2 year old accounts ive been mining with for 8 months 24/7 have been running at my work location on a different modem/IP)

My friend, who bought 6 accounts as well, has since been completely banned on all 6 of his accounts (Account closures, they wont budge on appeals of reopneing it) and when he called to talk to Blizzard, the blizzard rep explained that there is a new system that automatically detects, and then the admins actually manually investigate the account and verify, once they do you get banned permanantely

This is really bad, I think Honorbuddy is not safe anymore, they've found a way to detect it, its not as safe as it used to be

When my friend called Blizzard, I mean to say they confessed that there is a new system that is automatically detecting this, my assumption is that it has to do with one or more of these things: Not talking much, constant grinding or questing for long hours, possibly and most likely walking pathways have been compromised and they are using that from kicks scripts to detect players running those exact scripts, or it's all together possible they've found a way to detect honorbuddy or specific patterns of use that honorbuddy does and continually repeats every second it's being used and only those set of commands or skills/spells it uses, never using anything else, and they detect it, either way, it's a new system, it never existed before

Like I said, I've been botting for 2 years now, Honorbuddy is my favorite and most advanced bot ive ever used, and it's so amazing and it's extremely sad that its so compromised
I really wish this was not the case, my friend spent 600 dollars buying 6 accounts and two 3 session honorbuddy keys, and now within a week and a half, he's lost all 6 accounts

This is not how it was before, and I specifically opened an account about 6 months ago for my friend, when she played for roughly 4-8 hours a day, id let her play, when she logged off, i'd log on and bot a paladin, so even tho it was a new account, it was online 24/7, and being botted 3/4ths of the time, and now suddenly, new accounts are automatically being flagged, hell my old 2 year old accounts that ive been botting on 24/7 for 8 months NON STOP have suddenly started getting shot down, this never happened before, and even tho i bot 24/7 on those older accounts, they are on a different IP completely unassociated with my new accounts, and on a different server, its definitely not coincidental that all these accounts are getting banned once after another now, or suspnded automatically by their new script for 72 hours - Look at the ban section, there's 15 posts every day of new bannings, not to mention all those people not posting - something is definitely wrong, and completely unsafe with honorbuddy, admins, please do something here to help

There is no question or doubt about the fact that HonorBuddy or Gatherbuddy are not safe right now, they've created a new system to detect it, and until we're aware of how to avoid that system, or what to do to protect ourselves from it, please be warned and do not use the bot - at least nowhere near regularly - EVen people who dont use the bot, or seldomly use it are being targeted, and the admin manually checks your logs to verify if you were using it or not, and if not enough evidence is available, they release the suspended accounts - but right now, people are getting banned left and right, very quickly

I posted this elsewhere, and while I am not trying to create hysteria, I do think people should know whats going on, and be allowed to talk about it and discuss their knowledge and figure a way around this situation

Before you start telling me that Obviously im going to be banned eventually for botting 24/7, I want you to understand that ive been botting 24/7 without getting cought for 8 months, and if their automated system didnt catch me for 8 months, what made them suddenly catch me now where people are constantly getting banned left and right? My friends 6 accounts at his house got banned, my new 6 accounts I run at home suddenly got banned, and the 3 accounts that are completely unassociated with my accounts I run at home or my friends account got banned as well, even after 8 months of continuous 24/7 botting, the timing only explains that something more is going on, there is a way to detect honorbuddy, read the posts and bans, go back a few months, see how often people are posting, you'll find in towards the end of December and January 2013 are double and triple more ban posts then ever before in the previous months

I was running the profile that uses multizones, the set that comes with 1, 2 and 3 - and it worked wonderfully till these recent banwaves, and if it was a report, only 1 account would get banned, not all 3 at my workplace or all 6 at my home all at once

All 4 of my friends have been banned in this last two weeks, my three accounts under my wifes maiden name, my accounts (all 6) i recently made and run from home, my friends 6 accounts, and several other friends who are botting 2-3 accounts of their own

24 hour botting or not, you can't deny the timing is not suspicious, i would understand if i got hit on one account, or two accounts, but all 3 at once, all 6 at once, all my friends at once, and logging on here to see at least 8 posts a day saying 3/3 or 5/5 accounts banned, something is going on

I am not trying to cause a scare, but if there is something more going on people should know and be careful, and honorbuddy owners should try to figure out how to protect their consumers from these detection methods

I truly and genuinely believe that there is now a new system that is automatically suspending accounts for 72 hours pending Game Master manual investigations, and you can either bite the bullet and ride out the 72 hours, or mail them and have them invesigate the account and either keep it suspended, possibly ban it if they find constant careless botting, or override it if its a mistake

Even some posts here have GMs telling them they have a new system that is sometimes flagging people who are not botting, in an effort to protect their game from cheaters, and Blizzard themselves told me its a new system thats working well for them on the phone when i tried to dispute the suspensions

I have built at least 12 accounts in the last 2 years from 1-90 with 24/7 botting on Kicks profile, and not a single account has been banned for it, ive had one suspension here, one there, out of the 6-12 ive botted, that is from people reporting me, but to have all your accounts at once get suspended or banned, that sounds like a banwave

One of my friends had 6 of his accounts botting 12 hours a day for a week, he logged off at 11am, and at 9pm 3 of his 6 accounts (today) got hit for 72 hour suspension, something is definitely wrong, and I really hope we can figure it out
There is another post of a player botting 24/7 with kicks profile to test this theory, for those of you interested, check in on that post to see what happens to him, if he does get banned after about 3 days of consecutive botting, and the timing is right about 60 hours or a bit thereafter, i think that will truly validate further what i already know to be true, what ive read from responsive game master emails in regards to bans and suspensions and what ive been told on the phones from blizzard game masters to be true, I hate typing this, i am not trying to put honorbuddy down, i love and support this bot, i just hope im proved wrong, but so far, all the evidence proves that this is a very bad time to use honorbuddy =(

 

Nice title i'm not banned.

 

blizzard would never tell you, they implemented a new script for automatic bans.. On top of that, i just botted nearly 3 days 24/7 and this morning....NO BAN (surprise)...

 

2/12 got 72h susp... after 3 months non stop :/

 

I've noticed that when you bot on BG's it will say your away, even if your bot is moving, etc.
Good information, something should be looked at.

 

Why do you think multiple accounts would get hit at once?

 

This forum is for ban reports only, not threads with non-verifiable information with a sensationalist title meant to grab peoples attention.

Fear mongering is exactly what you are doing, and its against the forum rules. Consider yourself warned.
