    Blizzard starts to ban a lot of botters?

    Hello, Today I got a 3 days suspension becuse I've used honorbuddy for like a month now, my friend got banned today to. I've also seen several peoples on Thebuddyforums.com got banned toady. I think you should take it easy with the botting for some days if you don't want a suspension. Will check with other firends later today and see if they have got banned to.

    Someone here have got banned today/yesterday?
    (I'm not sure, but i think it looks a bit strange that a lot of peoples just start getting banned, so blizz is maybe upon something)
    (I've been using bgbuddy, grindbuddy, lvlingbuddy, questingbuddy, and some gatherbuddy)

    I got banned 10min ago and my friend got banned like 3-6h ago.

    The most common recent ban is Abuse of the economy and it seems to be targeting mostly those who farm gold. These bans are usually somewhat automated and are commonly triggered from farming to much ores/herbs or by trading large amounts of gold.

    The 3 day suspension you have got is often for battleground botting/abuse or a very light first offence for botting.

    It's not really anything new, but I have seen a lot more people getting banned from it and they mostly farm gold for personal gain or to sell.

    Just be careful in your botting and don't over do it and you should be fine, in my opinion

    I think one of the reasons they added this upgrade item thing is, because they found a way to track bg bots
    or they are too lazy to recycle old styles

    I seem to be one of the few that actually got banned for botting instead of selling gold on my farmer
