I had started playing back in Wrath and had done so legitimately even through Cata. It wasn't until mid 2012 that I had started using PQR/Honorbuddy for PVE purposes and then later PVP, and oh man do they help a lot. They really had me staying in game for quite a while, too.
I shall remember January 22, 2014. The day I was finally caught for using said programs. Am I angry? Those who read my little rant about how WoW is going nowadays already know the answer to this. I know that there's always a risk when using any type of bot whatsoever, but I'm honestly surprised I got so far before my days became numbered.
So to all of Ownedcore, Xelper, and Bossland. Many thanks to you for improving my experience and making WoW feel much less like work.
