I was using the bot on average 5 hours during the week and upwards of 10 hours on the weekends right up until 7.3 when we went offline for the month. I logged in during the first Tripwire event on Oct 10th and did not log in again until today when I seen news of the banwave. My only habit I changed which may have had a role in saving my account perhaps is I frequently swap between 4 toons and continue farming, as a result all 4 toons have roughly the same playtime and activity, I dont know if this matters or not but I thought I would mention it.
Fingers are crossed, I am going to give it a few days at a minimum before opening the bot again, IF I do get banned I will update here.
If you were flagged, you would have been already banned, I think. Its auto-scripts running on blizz side, once you are in the list, you get hit, once not - you are happy
So the shot went off and I wasn't hit, I should be fine type of deal, I always looked at the days after a banwave as the most dangerous, I bet they are actually the most safe lol
Most likely they were safe. But on last banwave - 1st Feb, I resubbed an old acc, recovered from 6 months suspension and upgraded to Legion. And it was hit 18 hours later, on 3rd Feb with new 6 month suspension Then a lot of other people cried for bans as well - not another banwave, but nice batch of accs got hit. Probably flagged ones like mine obviously was.
This exact scenario just happened, and I did not bot this weekend lol, dodged another bullet..... I don't know when i'll get back to botting though now haha
