I am making it back for botting since my main account got banned. (I know how retarded it was now to bot with my main account...) I am starting from scratch again with new Bnet account from new mail and wondered what else I need to change to avoid "getting flagged". Should I be changing my IP? (VPN or something like that) Should I change my MAC-address? (and how?) New email address and new battlenet account on this address? New paypal account for payment options? Buy a new Battlechest account and buy WOD expansion? Does this seem like a good plan if I want to try and start fresh or does anyone have a better way or did I miss something? Thanks for you help!
I used the same BNET account, same email (obviously), didnt change IP or MAC address and I've been botting since the day HB came back online and I'm still happily bottng right now. Having said that, I pretty much ONLY quest bot, dont do any gathering or PVP or anything else. I had 2 accounts on this BNET banned in the banwave.
Good to hear. I was thinking about it as well as I am only going to quest and do combat routines in raids, not 24/7 grinding. Did you get permabanned on those two or only 6 months? I have a 6 months ban on my account which has 8 lvl 100 chars, prob som 400k gold and lot of gear but they will surely whipe it when the ban is lifted. Don't know if I want to take the chance if they permaban my 6 month if I start on the same bnet account...
Wierd shit btw: "I understand and agree to the anti-cheating agreement and acknowledge that Blizzard Entertainment may utilize anti-cheating utility on my computer in this respect." This above you have to agree to if you live in EU but when I choose US it isn't applyable...
I was 6 month banned on my original 2 accounts on this BNET.. I only used the same BNET account cuz I wanted all the heirlooms, so far so good.
I leveled two bots from 90-100 and did some Ashrans/BGs and was banned last night. Can't tell if they banned me for questing or PvP.
Players can also report you. I am botting for 10 years and have never gotten banned, because i avoid crowded zones.
Be smart about it. I just leveled a free boosted toon To 90. couple weeks ago. And I used Kicks free profiles with the bot for 90 to 100. That's apparently the "reason" people got caught. Had no issues on a very high pop server. Just take your time, don't rush. It's better to lose a day than lose an account.
