Hello, lately I have seen alot of people getting banned and it is mostly for battlegrounds/gathering profiles. I dont know exactly what is triggering the ban, but it might be that people are repeating the same paths/routines and doing the exact same thing everytime.
My suggestion basically gives HB a bit more variety so that it is harder to get caught. Instead of having people follow the same route in mainly bg's, why not create something similar to zaprecorder, where it will let the user himself create different profile paths/goals for the bot to perform? I find this will give botting more variety and bots will not be so obvious. This will also SAVE THE DEVS SOME TIME in trying to write profiles for BG's that randomize pathing, ect ect.
So basically a plugin that is easy to use and user friendly so that the community can write their own paths. ZapRecorder is already out there, so not so much needed for gathering. For battlegrounds though, this would solve a whole ton of coding for devs and make the bot more random
Edit: Also, it does not take blizzard a whole lot of effort to login to a BG and see the bots doing the same pathing... This is probably what they are doing, and can easily catch people. I remember about 2 years ago I played this game, and had this hack where I could see Devs that logged into the game but were invisible (it would give me their coords if they were near me), so I am pretty sure blizz does the same, and even probably run their own invisible honorbuddy bot to verify pathing with the other bots before flagging them.
