Hello Devs and Users! First of all sorry for my bad English All that will be shown below is just my speculation. Since I started use this beautiful product(HB), almost every day I check the HB Ban section for information about ban waves. After a considerable time spent in this section, I noticed that a lot of people banned after GatherBuddy bot system usage and GB2 profiles. There is a lot of reasons why people get banned, some of them is obvious: 24\7 botting putting a lot of materials to auc botting in popular places botting in one places with one routine reports from players^ Some of them not really obvious: simultaneous botting with 2+ windows from one HWID - this is my idea that this is risky to launch more than one ACTIVE window. By ACTIVE I mean situation when 2+ HBs manage 2+ WOW windows from one IP and 1 HWID. I am not specialist but it can be monitored somehow. botting while playing other blizzard games - I dont think its possible but this new battle.net desktop app can present surprises. etc. Yesterday I was trying to figure out why, even those who play very carefully get banned. 5 years ago I played game Ragnarok Online and they implement very cool system against botting - Anchors. This Anchors are items\objects which invisible for players, but bot see them and pickup\use. This items were very tasty for bot so they use\pickup them. In WoW I also saw situation when players\bot pickup invisible objects so if bot see HERB in popular location he pick it and then Blizzard see that %playername% picked tagged\anchored HERB and you got ban. Personally I dont use GB2 at all just because I aware of bans. I use questing\tyrael\bg\ a lot and no bans at all. What you think about this?
Running 1 Gatherbuddy for almost over a year now. Farming 10-12 / 24, I believe most bans come from reports. I see allot of GB2's landing near my bot trying to steal my herb/mine. They are already way to late with stealing it but their bot stays there for a bit even after my bot picked up the herb/mine. Then mine flys of and the other one starts mounting while mine is already gone untill they meet again while the other bot tries to steal the herb again. Doing that is just plain stupid and then you are kinda asking ppl this: please report my bot trying to steal your herbs. So Avoid players and avoid elites. Redstorm
