any of you noticed that recently, wow GM seems quite keen on playing games with the bot .. i was running ducks (no offence duck, your profile s great!) gathering profile, for about, nearly 2 hours? suddenly my char been kind of 'transformed' under a house. stop the bot and i tried to get our manually, 'transformed' back immediately.... and i type' wtf s going on', though after waited few minutes i gave it another go, then i successfully 'jail broke'. then i got a warn says blah blah blah.... wont bot with the same char for weeks, but, you know any1 had the same case?
ran the profile on another two Druid for about 3 hours, cant spot any bot-ish move with the profile. wondering how did they know i was boting
All of your clicks are in the public profile and the GM can know exactly where you are going to travel using that profile. All they have to do is go to each co-ordinance that shows in the profile and see if you follow it exactly. Really not that hard.
Try to farm by hand then! Belive me you gona follow same path. And you will never have same route because spawn rate. It is something else about profiles. I am guess it is about lot of botters use it.
Have you had in mind another theory? The GMs manual "camp" the popular servers 1 by 1, lets say for an hour near this famous house and teleport all gatherers, who pass nearby in the house, and monitor their actions We could conclude that for several reasons: 1. No doubt, most GB2 bans are manual bans recently - that means a GM monitor the bot for several seconds to few minutes, till he examine his next move - to ban or not to ban. 2. It is too much time consuming to investigate every server side pattern or report-flagged character, and examine its travel route etc. 3. Its much faster and effective to camp a spot and test every gathering char passing by. It require really no time per account in a long run.
I don't think they wait for gathering chars to "pass by the famous house/s". I think they just teleport them after to many nods/h or a report done by players or even more prob by greedy fucking botters who want everything for themselves
blizzard could ban all the bots if they want to, but they just don?t have the time or care to make all their staff fight agaisnt bots, GM's can easily look at the path you are taking and then they match it, if you walk the same path over 10 hours... he has enough evidence to ban you
