      1)Were you using Honorbuddy, Gatherbuddy or both on the account? Honorbuddy

      2)If so, when was the last time?: The day before the Ban

      3)What profile were you using?: GB2 Vashj'ir huge farm

      4)What combat class were you using? Covalence 4.1

      5)What plugins are you using?: Allrounder

      6)How many hours per day did you bot for?: 8 Hours

      7)How many auctions per day did you have?: 15

      8)Did you Use Any Other Bots, Hacks, or Mods? No

      9)Was your account involved in gold selling? None

      10)EU or US realm? US

      ***Notice of Account Closure***

      Account Name: !@#$%^#$%^

      Reason for Closure: Terms of Use Violation -- Exploitative Activity: Abuse
      of the Economy

      This account was closed because one or more characters were identified
      exchanging, or contributing to the exchange of, in-game property (items or
      gold) for "real-world" currency. This exchange process negatively impacts
      the World of Warcraft game environment by detracting from the value of the
      in-game economy.

      I didn't do anything besides make cards and auction them off along with some ore and bars. I tried to get the ban appealed, but they pretty much did this YouTube - ‪Cartman Gets F**cked‬‏ The ban was in the end =(

      Anyone know of some creative ways to get the account unbanned? or is pretty much a lost cause. I was thinking about going to a friends house a few states away and reporting it as hacked lol, but I doubt that it would work

      You need to open a ticket and say this

      "Hi I was just on my account and I got an email saying my password had been changed (at this time do an account recovery and change your password) and I tried to log back in after changing my info and noticed I got banned. I don't understand please can you help me? thank you very much"

      I have gotten banned (Yes permanent bans) 2 times in the past 2 weeks and I got unbanned within 5-15 minutes no questions asked.

      "banned for abuse of economy" is a default response from them. You got banned because you got caught *****ing. They will tell you once they unban you when you open a ticket.

      Good luck.

      If they said they won't then they won't. If it's permanent then it's a sealed deal. Maybe after a few months they can grant you amnesty idk though.

      Did you give anyone else some gold? IE, trade gold to someone elses account? If so, they may think you were gold selling....I'm just looking at the reason for your ban and if you really werent selling any gold at all, then my explanation may be the cause and possibly, a way for you to get yourself unbanned. Good luck, I hope you can get ur acc back :)

      Yeah they won't even let me explain what happened they just immediatly close the ticket after they see it. So I duno...... I had a chunk of gold I put in my personal guild bank a day before, but thats still in the guild bank, so they may have thought thats what it was? the amount of gold I put in there was 11k

      See what's BS about that whole thing, is that they cant detect it, so how can they ban you for it?

      So did you email them at WowAccountAdmin@Blizzard.com? (real blizz email), or uses the ticket system on battle.net where it says appeal ban/ I got hacked?

      I got abuse of the economy on 2 accounts. I got it lifted via account compromise. Luckily i had used one IP, then started using a VPN so they saw 2 totally different IPs so they believed it was hacked immediatly. That's the key, to login from home for awhile, then use a vpn for awhile, then home. so if/when you get banned they will see 2 totally diff. ip's logging in for a period of time, and believe you were hacked.
