Is there any way blizz could prove I was botting, as long as I monitor the bot, and respond when a gm contacts me? Reason I ask is because I'm going to be using this again but on my main account for some bgs while I watch tv series. lol.
Blizzard can do a look up on your ram to see if u use 3 party program with wow so no sry nothing is 100% safe
This might sound stupid, but can't you just rename the exe to something silly like Spotify or winamp?
It is not just about detecting the *.exe You could name it whatever you want, that wouldn't matter if they detect any process being attached to the wow process. Right now they can't detect it and it doesn't matter if you name it "honorbuddy.exe" or "notepad.exe" or whatever. There is no 100% safety guarantee and will never be.
The reality is if you bot 24/7 and get reported and any GM looks into it, how do you think it would look? Noone can run an account 24/7 for more than 2 days no matter how much Red Bull you drank. To bot for 24/7, IMHO it's not a matter of IF, but WHEN you'd be banned. All it would take is one slip and any GM looking into it would see your time online and suddenly that 24/7 account goes to 0/7. In my opinion, bot reasonable amounts of time - if you want to bot 24/7, do it on 2-3 different accounts so none of them are more then 8-12 hours a day (and still monitor them of course). Sooner or later, our bots going to do something that gets him/her reported - running into something for 30 minutes, dying and running into the same elite mobs 20 times in a row, flying up from a mine node and getting stuck in a tree and trying to use the 'unstuck routine' over and over... there are a number of ways - it only takes 1 at the wrong time. When it happens, you want to make it so it's not obvious that you're botting.
