Don't put all your eggs in one basket. If you were doing great you should've taken actions to protect yourself - VM + V-P-S connection and what not. I feel like I am pushing the botting limits - botting 16 hours a day, farming almost the same zones. However all my investments are a few battlechest accounts + HB licenses - the bots paid off for themselves already, so if I lose them I can just start new ones. The only thing that can really hurt me atm is if they decide to continuously IP ban all accounts made from my IP - then it will be time for VM + V-P-S connection.
