i've had a ~10bot setup a couple months back before the ban-trickling where people were continuously getting banned every day
now that banning seemed to be pretty much on the down low for a couple of weeks until the recent banwave i was wondering if botting in that time was actually profitable
i have not kept up much but my reasoning is 38$ per key, per bot 500k gph netting 0.2$ per mil puts you at 2.4$ bot/day making it ~16 days of farming to break even + x days to level up + gold to equip the bot
ie. i am assuming a profit of ~25$ for 1 month of 24/7 botting per bot in the month you set up the bot (if you set him up on the 1st), after you reach the break even point it's not too bad actually
however there seemed to be some random bans here and there even during the "calm" phase which can be a big hit to morale if you get hit early with a small operation
so my questions are
1) am i about right with my assumptions
2) if you were botting for a profit and not just for fun what was your experience during the past weeks
