      Hey guys, I recently RE subscribed to Honorbuddy because I was sick of leveling.

      Now I bought this bot about 3 Hours ago.
      I have used it, Quite amazed of how the questing works actually (Iv used AIO) so Im pretty Impressed in how it equips Gear, Learns skills, ETC.

      But what im wondering is, Is it out of the ordinary right now with all these bans? It just looks like a lot have been popping up lately... is this normal?

      GM?s got rabies right now, hopfully they get cured soon so this go back to normal.

      Seriously, they are out saying they are working harder to ban boters, this is likely to be a campain they run for a while but it is costly to have to many people working on it so it wont last to long.

      Honestly, if you are this concerned about botting, then don't. It is as simple as that. If you do bot, just be prepared to lose your account is all.

      i got reported by some stupid kid that wass following me around ... he`s claiming he called a gm where i wass boting .. lol ... more then 2 weeks have passed since then and nothing happend ... not even a mail from blizzard or anything ... i`ve been boting like at least 16 hours a day ... i dont have auctions at the moment ... sometimes i auction stuff thats worth around 1-2k gold mostly skinns ... anyway what i`m sayng is. i`ve been pretty careless about my booting ... leaving the bot alone for nights with instance buddy ... and stuff like that. i`m still here and its working great at the moment. my advice to you ? if ur going to bot ... first test every profile you`re going to use. for example with instance buddy there are places where it gets stuck often. like jumping in the water and hiting his head on the wals while trying to get out and stuff like that. test then go afk thats what i do

      bans are apart of botting...if you dont want the possibility of being banned, dont bot.

      there is never a "good" time to bot But there is smart botting, just do a little research on the best ways to bot and youll be fine, currently i archeology with a little questing every few hours, i mine/herb all day and do my dailys at the end of the day, and thats still a little extravagant so...

      The way i look at it is that the bot itself is not being traced by blizzard, so the only way you would get caught is by someone reporting you or whatever. On my botting accounts i don't care if i lose them because id just level up another. But on my main account i don't bot that afk thus making it a bit safer.

      Pretty much what Kick said.

      Can't think of anything other than that.
      Especially with the rapid increase of botters in WoW in the past few months.

      First Time I also was afraid because of the Banforum, was thinking about not buying HB.
      One Tipp: Take a look at the single Bans, read the reasons why those people get banned and learn from them. Then you see the most of them are explainable with simple reasons. ;)
      If you bot save, this bot is as save as any other Bot outside there, maybe even saver.

      There have been a lot of suspensions in the EU recently. Not bans though. Looks like they're just catching up on player reports

      I honestly believe they are tracking the bot. I tried real hard to get my 72 hour suspension overturned but they wouldn't have it. The reason:

      ""When running, the World of Warcraft client may monitor your computer's random access memory (ram) and/or cpu processes for unauthorized third party programs running concurrently with World of Warcraft. An "unauthorized third party program" as used herein shall be defined as any third party software, including without limitation any "addon" or "mod," that in Blizzard Entertainment's sole determination:
      ...
      ...
      ...
      Following a review of your case, we can confirm that such program has been used on several occasions by your account, and that the subsequent action taken is appropriate. We would not look to enter into any further communications on this issue as the matter is now considered closed."

      I don't think they are stupid to insta ban everybody they catch running the bot because it would mean a big loss of game subscriptions for them, but i think they're stepping up recently with the 72 hour suspensions to try deter people from continuing to use it
