      Alright, I just bought HB yesterday. I made a toon today, and It's level 9. I'm thinking about leaving it over night. Is this a good idea?

      The risk of a ban is always there. I've run QuestingBot with Kick's profiles overnight several times myself, often waking up to the bot being offline for several hours because of a bug or being stuck or something similar, or even worse when it's standing at the same questgiver for hours trying to pick up a quest or something similar. Never been banned, but I do know I'm taking a risk.

      If you're afraid of being banned, only bot while supervising. No bot/profile is 110% perfect, but most of them are quite close in my experience. It's all about the risks you're willing to take.

      On a 100% new fresh account I will suggest not going over 10-12 hrs of online time per day.

      That's a LOT for a "new" player.

      Takes time to get truly "addicted" to wow :p


      But questing should be fine to leave alone for 2-4 hours.
      I wouldn't suggest leaving it while you sleep.

      You could use the LogMeOut plugin to close it after so much time.
      This will save you a lot of hassle.

      If you really just want to test blizzards systems for fun, which I have on occasion...

      I've set a new account to run kicks questing 24/7 with no "extra" plugins.

      Other than the occasional HB core bug it ran perfect, and got to 60 in no time. (Prot Pally w/ custom class of ProtoPally)


      No ban on it even now.



      But back to the suggestion on 10-12...
      I did that over 3 months ago so we never know what Blizz is up to now.

      ...I should do another of these hardcore test runs...

      Meh.
      Good luck with the new account,
      Panda.
