I've been botting on and off for a couple of years. Have yet to be banned. However it seems there's a "banwave" going around. And I feel bad for anyone that loses any of their accounts, whether you're a dev or not. All I have to say to this wave is I Can't Stop. I'll bot till I'm dead. <3 [video=youtube;hzExWz7KP5M]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzExWz7KP5M[/video] EDIT: Realize this may be the wrong section, and for that I'm sorry, don't hate on me <3.
I'm still actively botting as well, I have 3 accounts running, all on different machines with a different IP, but all within my house. They've been using private profiles and just farming trillium/ghost iron ore then prospecting and putting on AH. Two of them run 8 hours a day with a two hour break inbetween, the other is my main account which only bots for 2 hours a day. Have yet to receive a ban since Cata, when I decided to bot for 48 hours straight.
Glad to hear that others are still botting. I've heard that some of the devs here have lost alot of their accounts, and I can only hope they don't let that get them down. We need them I also hope others don't stop, if we stop Blizz wins.
