    Flooding the auction house with materials

    Sorry if this isn't the right forum. It's some what related to botting, but I don't actually bot.

    My friend who bots wanted me to put items on the auction house for him. I've made over 20000g in 2 days selling various mats.

    My question is, is this an idiotic way to do this? Can I get banned in the future? I know there are people out there who don't bot (or at least I don't know) but use mods to track undercuts, post things fast, etc.

    Does putting up mats on multiple characters (level 1-80) make a difference? Undercutting myself by a few copper? I have only done it one character.

    Does Blizzard constantly check the auction house or how much people make in turn. I know they can check mail, which can be fishy with the amount of mats he is sending me.

    Just want to know some tips. Maybe hold off a few days? I have found one buyer who leveling professions so he's bought probably about 40% of the stuff I have sold.

    The gold will all go to my friend, but he said I can have as much as I want.

    Using multiple characters and undercutting yourself could be considered exploiting the auction house... but I wouldn't worry about getting busted selling the stuff. You didn't bot to get the mats... your friend did. All you are doing is posting stuff on the ah.

    I personally bot for about 14 hrs per day and have a regular 600 items on the AH constantly selling>.> 18k in 3 days on tich horde. Previous botting history 400-600 is fine anything more is asking for it.

    (even legit ah flipping i would have 600 ish and never got a warning.)

    I have heard of this "banned for exploiting the economy." I don't know if those were permanent bans or 24-72 hours, warnings, etc. I don't know if the people who got that botted either, they said they didn't.

    Maybe I will stick to one character and I won't post more than 400 items.

    Is Blizzard able to track what you receive in the mail though? Gold or item wise? Because i literally come on and my inbox is full.
