AHK Pixel Bot
Hey guys.
Has anybody ever actually been banned for using AHK in World of Warcraft? Because I haven't, and I've never actually spoken to anybody who has been banned specifically or solely using AHK as an exploit. I have however read several warnings about it's use, and people saying "you will be banned" or "It's just a matter of time". Yet, time goes on... Surely if this was something Blizzard could easily detect, or wanted to control then I would have been banned years ago?

I accepted this risk and carried on regardless. I maintained this for many years, with no ban. To note, I always play PvE, so there is no risk of being reported for cheating in PvP content.
I moved on to using ELK for a short time, I'm sure many of you will be aware that ELK was eventually detected and my account was banned even though I had not used ELK for months prior, it must have been flagged previously that I had used it, and my account was banned along with everybody else who I knew had been using ELK at the time.
After the ELK ban wave, I decided to go back to AHK. I have been using a simple script to fully automate my rotation and I compile the script into an executable. I haven't been banned... Yet...
Happy to share the script and how I've done this, if anybody is interested, but my question is:

As I said. The method, is an AHK script which is compiled into an executable. 🤷*♂️

13 lines? I am interested in what spec you play and what you monitor for.
Could you let me know what you use for showing the pixels you want? I'm assuming you use some private addons for that?
