      Hello, I'm new to the forums. This isn't exactly a question about honorbuddy, but about Blizzard's security system Warden. I know that Warden watches chat to a certain degree, but I was wondering if it actually looked for certain words. For example, if I were to whisper a friend saying "Do you think these guys know I'm botting?", do you think Blizzard tracks bot-related terms, and would then investigate me? Anybody have any problems with Blizzard just for talking or whispering somebody about botting? Your responses are appreciated, thank you.

      lots of people, during TBC.. would "LFM heroic BOT" so no.. they wouldnt look for the word bot.. even now, BOT is used as an acronym for Bastion of Twilight - the raid...

      Warden doesn't look at anything in the chat log at all actually.

      Blizz does log everything though, so thats a different story.

      Ah, so its really only something to worry about if Blizz is suspicious of you botting. Then they'd probably check the logs, right?
