anyone got banned not doing sarkoth and core of arreat, and your each game last longer than 2 mins?
2 accounts banned from using AutoIt on US.
Seems like they are banning now..
Was banned on my one and only bot account for botting Sarkoth 24 hrs a day using Notares's autoit script. Using a VM whole time.
I sent gold to my main in 30 mil intervals and they didn't ban my main (yet)
I was doing a full Act 3 clear on my main once a day, then autoit botting sarkoth (on main) the rest of the time, up until a couple days ago. I had a hunch autoit bans were approaching so I limited my autoit sarkoth botting on my main lately.
I digitally bought the bot account July 6th, hand leveled legitimately to 60 in two days, and autoit sarkoth botted 24/7 until my ban today (July 19th)
I'm sure they check to see if you're actually playing the game or just running Dank Cellar over and over.
I made more then teh cost of the game in the time i botted, but i doubt it's worth it in the long run.
I'm happy I only bought one copy of the game for botting, I wanted to see how long i'd go before ban, the answer is not long enough
Also like to add I never sold gold to anyone on bot account.
This is what a ban report is supposed to look like, kiddies

Sarkoth autoit 23/24.
2/3 just got banned include one Collector's Edition acct. My main acct which stopped botting about a week ago haven't got banned yet.
The two banned was :
- (1) was running then kicked out of game.
- (2) was offline when I watching movie.
So I think they do flag accounts then they ban them even if they're offline or online. You can stop it but you'll still be banned.
This morning, I just sent 100m from my main acct to the bot ( 1 ), 20m from the bot (2) to the bot (1) and and the bots are banned, the main is still safe. Weird.
I'm trying to appeal.

Greetings,
* * * NOTICE OF ACCOUNT CLOSURE * * *
A user of this account has recently been involved in actions deemed inappropriate for Diablo III by the In-Game Support staff of Blizzard Entertainment. This decision was made after a thorough investigation of the situation as a whole. Though we are unable to discuss the outcomes of our investigations due to privacy concerns, rest assured that this incident has been looked into very thoroughly, and the appropriate actions have been taken on all involved accounts.
Account Action: Account Closure
Offense: Unapproved Third Party Software
A third party program is any file or program that is used in addition to the game to gain an unfair advantage. These programs may increase movement speed or teleport heroes from one place to another beyond what is allowed by game design. It also includes any programs that obtain information from the game that is not normally available to the regular player or that transmit or modify any of the game files.
Cheat Programs ("Hacks")
We take action against accounts using hacks when a hero on the account is identified using a hack program. Hacks provide benefits normally not achievable in the game. Such benefits may include: increased speed, teleportation, or running through walls.
Automation Programs ("Bots")
We take action against accounts using automation programs or bots when one or more heroes on the account are identified using a bot to achieve automation.
This Diablo III account has been closed by our staff based on a review of the account and all related policy violations, in accordance with the Terms of Use and our In-Game Policies (Diablo III Policies - Battle.net Support).

Moving forward, this Diablo III account and any Heroes or items associated with the account are no longer accessible. The only way to continue playing Diablo III is to purchase a new license, or to attempt to recover access by appealing account closure. While closure overturns are very unlikely, we advise that customers pursuing an appeal hold off on purchasing a new Diablo III license until the appeal process has completed. If you add a new Diablo III license, a new account will overwrite your old, without any prior Heroes or items from the closed account.
Any disputes or questions concerning this account action can only be addressed by Account Administration.

1 main and only account banned. autoit sarkoth runnning random times in the week. no vmware either. collected about 50 mill to date. finished all levels including beating diablo in inferno. put in abuot 300 hours total. 100 was probably botting.
Just banned 5 minutes ago. Roughly 700 hours playtime and 150 mil gold collected. Had about 7 mil in my pockets, and about $100 worth of items up in the RMAH. I only had 1 account. I don't know why I'm not upset. I feel like I SHOULD be heart broken right now, but... I feel... sort of happy? I'm not sure what this feeling is..

Banned today on my two accounts using autoit. US server running 24 hours
Was wondering.... for those who are banned - did you have "allow join" ticked any point you were botting?
I remember - I had no friends on my bot accts, but left "Allow Join" ticked and game was interrupted with the confirm leaving game with leaving party message
