      What scares me is that there is only 252 people here scanning the forums on this banwave, where the last one we had close to 1500. That number comparison is slightly staggering if that is any indication of the decline of the user base.

      i just used the COMBAT ROUTINES. Paid ones ... gladiator. NO AFK EVER!
      Those are impossible to detect by players cause they were good. So that means HB fucked up and they got detected again. High Possibility that they knew about trip wire sucking balls. I said it a few days ago that this ship is sinking ... nobody wanted to believe me ... lol good thing i did not pay for a new key. Feeling sorry for you guys that did.

      *Gets Popcorn* :D ... We got fireworks ready ? Flame on! :D

      You guys forced people to rebuy your product after you chickened out of a "lifetime" product that you originally sold. Within the month of that happening your product fails horribly. This is pathetic on a level that I'm not quite sure where to begin with. You literally cheated people out of a product then failed on your "new" one.

      There really isn't much room for discussion. Your product continues to become worse and worse and then you force people to continue to pay in for something that they already purchased.

      Thank god for chargebacks.

      Yes you can ask for a refund if you purchased your key less than 7 days ago.

      Killing the lige time subs was a dick move - and now its 3rd time i get banned - This is a useless shitty product that is detectable and "tripwire" is just as useless. This is it i'm done with HB...

      Blizzard usually detects the bots but does not ban right away. i came back from a ban 3 weeks ago and i started botting again.
      So they detected me and everybody else for a long time now. Probably from patch 7.1.5

      In my opinion ... personal opinion. The Lifetime HB closure was made on purpose cause they knew the product is not working anymore. Call it milking the proverbial cow.
      New personal prevision, HB will close in the next 2 months. Quote me on this.

      You can't honestly think Bossland is going to refund anyone at this point.

      They cancelled lifetime keys to grab as much money as possible. That money they grabbed has already gone to UK court fees. There is no money for them to refund. And even if they would, Bossland's too shady to refund anyone anyways.

      Just hit them with chargebacks until they're out of business.

      They're extremely lucky that they don't have ANY presence inside the United States. A fraudulent small claims can go very far, very fast when the judge sees this happened to many people and orders it to civil court.

      I'm not going to ask for a refund, nor am I going to chargeback my purchase, I'm not going to berate or complain or threaten to sue. What I am going to do is simply and politely voice my disappointment.

      I've been a subbed user for the better part of a decade, I've been botting for even longer than that, started with Glider, moved on to Pirox, then onto HB when Pirox did that incredibly stupid thing with the archaeology bot and I was dumb enough to use it even after common sense dictated otherwise.

      HB was supposed to be better than any other bot out there, more secure, and more easily configurable, easier to write profiles, botbases, and plugins. That's why you built such a strong base in the beginning, because everyone saw the potential and jumped on board. Tripwire in and of itself was amazing, countless banwaves for years were avoided due to it intercepting Blizzards attempts at detection. Because of that the base grew even larger, but it looks like the end has been reached. I do not know what's going on your end as far as coders are going, if that's even the issue, I'm not going to speculate, make assumptions, spread rumors like maybe there's some kind of link, hell, maybe you guys just sort of gave up. I don't know, nor do I care.

      I care about the money I'm losing though, I care about having to rebuy all the WoW expansions, I care about losing money on gametime I will not get to use now that I've lost another account. I'm not someone who uses the bot to farm gold to sell, I don't even farm gold to buy gametime tokens, I bot because the game as a whole sucks, I bot because I hate leveling by hand, I hate questing, I hate grinding. The admins who have access to it can check my buddyauth and see how much I've purchased as far as CRs, botbases, plugins, and profiles. I bot things I don't want to do by hand, but every time I get a little further ahead than I was last time my account get banned, my new account gets hit and it's beginning to just get exhausting.

      When the lifetime keys were revoked, I said screw it and purchased another key, I debated buying another yearlong sub but decided to just buy a monthly one, and honestly I'm very glad I did. I don't think I'd be as calm about it as I am now if I had paid a bit more than what I did because now it's, once again, wasted money.

      I don't know if you gave up, or if Blizzard figured out how to stay 1 step ahead of you, I don't care, but I am officially done. Something I never thought I would say because hell, I've been botting so long that I'm kind of just numb to the losses. I just hope that if you do in fact plan on continuing... whatever this is now, that you figure out what you need to do to survive, because I honestly don't see it making it through this. Unless it's the gold farmers that are keeping you afloat. I'm not leaving the forums, I'm going to keep watching, as I have for years now, to see how everything develops and maybe one day I'll rejoin the botting community fully, but for now, farewell and good luck to those who are willing to continue on.

      That's just lame dude... I haven't been botting WoW for very long and we just purchased our key about 10 days ago but I'm not upset about it.

      I've been botting and gold farming Runescape for a long time and the fight between devs and botters is an ongoing thing. So I'm not surprised, yeah it sucks but give it time for people to come up with a better method to not get detected. After a while, the bot will get detected again, it's the cost of doing business. If you don't want the bans, don't bot on accounts you care about. Plain and simple...

      No offence buddy but we`ve been here for many many years and we know how our devs and mods work and treat us. After everything that happend this is unacceptable and everybody should just ask for a refund and stick it to HB

      There was a guy that lost 40+ accounts and he is not the only one losing that much... OH YOU HAVE NOT SEEN OR HEARD ANYTHING MY FRIEND.
      It's early in the morning people are just waking up and BOY THEY WILL BE DISAPPOINTED

      Well I have no idea how this community operates, so that's a fair point. I just started learning how to create my own stuff for this bot and it wasn't too hard. From what I've heard, this bot hasn't been that bad, it wasn't til recently they started getting detected. What was it? November? Wow... that's a big scary wave.... Shit happens dude...

      Again I don't know this community or the devs, so I'd give them the benefit of the doubt. The only "dickish" move I saw was changing lifetime keys to a year. But please tell me how these devs/mods work because I'm new and I have no idea how they treat their users.

      Yeah but in all my years farming games, I've lost just as much, but yet I still bot. While this is a different game (Runescape), I had over 200 Frostdragon bots going at a single time, I was earning an easy $50+ p/hour. It really sucked when I lost all those accounts, but it doesn't stop us. Some get discouraged and quit because the accounts do take time to build, but it's again the cost of doing business.

      RofL at the title to the thread. "Banwave 1" Starting to number them each year now. Just start naming them like the weather folks name the hurricanes. Holy shit man. I think I may really be done this time.

      Not asking for a refund.

      I've been playing and botting a long long time. I just started again and while i qualify for a refund...im not going to ask for it. Hoping the $ can go to finding a solution. You guys know the risk you take when you bot. Stop being babies and crying.

      Good luck Bossland! Hopefully we get a solution sometime soon.
