    I don't think there's a banwave, maybe just an increase in player reports because they were some featured threads about bots on the WoW site. I use pirox and many people have been being banned as well.

    I'm hoping it's not a ban wave and just a influx of player reports. My account got a 72 hour suspension using honor buddy, however I was using a public profile and was being very careless. Now I'm only using profiles that I make so hopefully I won't get caught again. ;(

    Maybe this is only for Gb.
    I've been botting on hb almost 24/7 the past few days.
    Never sold the farmed mats on ah though.
    And im doing my own profiles, making it extra safe.

    maybe there are just more bans due to the expansion?
    i mean, more players are active since its realise so maybe its just a correlation.

    Or because of the recent AV weekend . Sometimes there's up to 10 bothers per battle, and that's just the obvious ones.

    Some of the "facts" in this article are questionable at best. I've been putting up 300+ auctions per day, which is really more than any human could possibly farmed for the past year. Nothing has happened so far, and by bot is running 24/7. Literally.

    How much did you get for that HB / GB banwave thread, and who paid you ?

    "Honorbuddy is against the ToS" - as any other bot out there ....

    "Ban reporting incidence has increased greatly since last week" - as all other bots did due to blizzard cleaning up ...

    "Clusters of users on both US and EU servers have been banned within recent days for use of the program." - and clusters of users have not been, as also have been other users been for botting with other bots

    "There is no evidence that Honorbuddy or Gatherbuddy are currently detected on Warden, but that could change any time" - as with any other bot, at least the ones which do have any warden protection, there aren't that much out there


    Next time you write an article, maybe you should check for the difference of an Suspension and an Ban, as most of the player reports which we do have at thebuddyforum.com are 3 day suspension.

    Guys, stop running the massive ****ing bot operations.

    Stop afk botting for hours on end.

    Stop spamming the ****ing AH full of ore you just spent 24 hours botting.

    Tone this shit the **** down or Blizzard is going to go on a banwave and players are going to go apeshit with the bot reports.


    Of course the shit is being detected, players are seeing you do it and reporting your asses. Its just a matter of when, not if, you will be reported by a player.
