Yes it was the Archa bot. :3

But for the record, This, Honorbuddy ban wave aren't confirmed.

It seems the Archa send commands trough chat.
Something what Blizz could easily monitor. And would want to monitor.

Q: Do you make a new archa bot?
A: Sending the info to chat was atm the only way to get the archa locations. Other bots instead use lua_dostring injection. pvpTool will never use injection because this raise the risk of a ban. If we find a new safe way to get the data, maybe through the bot addon, we will update the bot and the lost time you could not use archa will get credited!

For the record.
You bot on your own risk. You botted, you knew there was a risk and it happened.

Yeah, banned too. Well, at least summer's coming to chicago. Maybe it's time to find a new hobby.

Good Luck!


I'm gonna try and schmooze my account back.

i loled at his response. i would rather inject and NOT LOOK LIKE A BOT, than be passive and keyboard turn and tab spam...

Does WoW-Robot use the same method as pirox did? Just wondering if I should be expecting a ban soon since I used WoW Robot for a few days to level arch about a week ago.

Blue post as seen on mmo champion: "We’re in the process of stepping up our detection and tracking to log and action players that are botting, or habitually AFKing in the Battlegrounds. We’ll be taking aggressive action and removing earned items, Honor Points, and ultimately suspending or even banning accounts of those that are found to be botting or habitually AFKing. It’s a sophisticated level of monitoring we’re undertaking. No one actively playing in the Battlegrounds normally should be concerned that they’ll be actioned. "
