Honorbuddy is not detected...

Honorbuddy is not detected, because if it was, then EVERYONE using it would get banned.

Why would they ban some people and not others? Usage patterns? If yes, then being detected or not is a moot point.

So, if you think it is detected and they did not ban all HB users, what has happened and why would they only ban some people and not the others?

 

They cannot get away with having wow scan processes 24/7. Most likely scenario is that at one time between yesterday and two weeks ago (when reading banreports), they did a scan of everyone being online and flagged those running HB, which is quite simple. Some that havent been botting for weeks (some of my friends) survived, whilst me using the program daily (but never obvious/unsupervised) got hit.

It is all guesswork, so take it with a grain of salt, but in my eyes, this is the most likely scenario.
It's too widespread to be user-reports and it is too few to be 100% detection upon injection.

 

gtfo its detected when almost everyone is banned, they might leave a few out because its strategic.
Then trolls like you can give people false hope again.

 

They used the lag detection method, which they have been using for a while now, but honorbuddy devs don't ever catch up to it.
When you get lagged, and the combat routine keeps pushing, that is not humanly possible.
SO BOOM!
BANNED/FLAGGED for review

 

I am not trolling nor I am giving anyone false hope, because I think after this ban wave we pretty much know how the show ended.

But that is not the point here, I find very odd that if they knowingly detect HB, they wouldnt ban everyone.

Perhaps it is what Fukinkou said that they run periodic scans and flag people on that given time, but I guess if they run the scans every day or week, they would find all users within a couple months. :/

 

Dreamer. But its ok if u think so. ^^

 

they can detect any bot program my son. I got banned so many times, even when they were questing. I restarted again on a fresh computer build, new ip (moved) new account, and it was banned with 2 or 3 days later doing questing

 

Well then RIP WoW for us. :'(

Mods can delete this thread, my heart and dreams have been broken and raped by Blizzard.

 

You are the troll with your completely ignorant slander with zero constructive comments.

Yes Pheno I do as well believe it is detected. They just don't have the resources to compile probably 35% of the accounts for a mass banning and do it more based on a small window of time.

At least that is my opinion

 

Because not 100% of all HB users are on 100% of the time. Even if Blizz ran their detection scheme every day, several times a day, they will still miss people to ban...Like me for example. I've botted at least once a day, every day, on multiple characters on 2 different accounts for the last month or so. Neither of my accounts is currently banned, but they very well may be banned in the coming days.

Hell, I was trying to bot this morning, but was disconnected twice in quick succession. Because of that, I didn't start the bot up and may be the only reason why my accounts are still good.

If Blizz ran their detection scheme all day, every day, someone would have found it already. When Bossland comes out and can only theorize what Blizz used to catch us last time, you know blizz is doing something right when it comes to catching botters.

 

I mean, if they wanted to find out they could check if the WoW version is x86 on a x64 system AND has click to move turned on. Rofl I always thought that was a dead give away. :/

So sad because I have a problem with my hands and I genuinely cannot play due to atrophy of the muscles in my hands, and I only used this for Combat Routines. :'(

 

I've been using bot type programs for nearly every game I play to automate the menial tasks I can't be bothered with.

You know what's universally said on every one of their forums? "It's not detected because everyone would be banned."

Believe it if you want. Bans are going to happen regardless of what you think or believe.

 

There will likely be people that continue using HB after this. I won't be one of them. You can continue using it, but there are only so many times I need to see something happen before I believe it. When I see people getting banned that only use the bot in their garrison then I think it's safe to assume that HB is detected. When people are not reporting you then Blizz is somehow detecting your activity, and I'm not talking about people botting 24/7 triggering flags. People that only bot a few hours in their garrison are getting banned.

HB isn't 100% detected because I have an account I botted on for a couple of hours a few weeks ago that didn't get banned. I don't know how Blizz runs their detection, but whatever they are doing is not catching 100% of the HB botters. If they catch 80 out of 100 people it doesn't mean the bot is not detected just because 20 people slipped through. I suspect that their detection system does not run continuously, and if you are lucky enough to only bot when it is not running then you get lucky.

That is my 2 cents. I personally will not use HB again unless some major changes occur with the bot. If Bossland comes back in a month and says they don't think Blizz is able to detect the bot so we are just going to turn it back on then I'm gone for good.

 

Can we get a ban.....or no. lol

Pheno try a razor naga. 10 buttons is plenty for any class in wod

 

Explain to me how my post was useless. I clearly explained why a detection can occur and not everyone gets banned.

Shit reputation...rrrriiiggghhttt, keep telling yourself that. I have as much experience botting as anyone else on these forum. Feel free to call me a casual botter. It's very true right now. But I've also botted as hardcore as anyone else on these forums for longer periods of time. Your 3 months of time you've been on these forums sure puts you right up there with the most hardcore of botters I've ever met. I can assure you that you calling me a casual does not hurt my feelings in any way, shape or form.

You sound really REALLY upset that you were banned. Maybe the break that your ban will give you a good chance to get a perspective on your life. It sounds like you have some serious anger issues to work out.

 

1/6 accounts i have never botted not even once and it was banned. Did HB attach to that one? maybe did I ever even hit start on it? nope. Detection might have zero to do with the account your logged in on. My wife was hit the last ban wave and she never uses HB only the PC i bot from every now and then. This is all hypothetical and kind of a waste of time.

 

it is 100% detected, u either didnt get banned yet, didnt report the ban, or got really lucky somehow

 

Yep HB Detected I never left keyboard and only used combat bot for killing all movement was me and still 4 accounts banned to new ones and 2 old banned accounts So you tell Me why its not HB

 

I am in another country right now, so I created a Free WoW trial account to test the MS out, to see if I could play on my main. I had 400-1000k MS, so I did not get my real account up and running. But I also tested HB with the trial account, I used Combat Routine for about 1 hour and 1-2 hours of questing/leveling. So a total of 2 to around max 4 hours of playing around in Gold Shire for one day. It got hit. Banned 181 days.

Seems very unlucky that my trial got hit in 2-4h of HB, or HB is still detected. Remember that BossLand did not know what happened last ban wave, and did not fix any detection methods. Blizz could have a way to detect HB with a high % of being spot on.

 

Same here, was running both accounts till 7am before I left for work and turned them off. Logged in on both now doing random crap till we get tripwire back off. It's not 100% like people are saying, they are just upset they got hit and we didn't.
