I'd say it was a banwave. How do you differentiate between what banwave is and what isn't? 5k ppl banned is a banwave, but 4989 isn't? You gotta understand that A LOT of people don't whine about it on forum and create new topics. I'd say that people who do that is just a tip of an iceberg. My friend got banned for using rebot. He was always monitoring it and used it for a while just for archaeology. That day like anyone else, out of nowhere, he got hit by the banwave anyway. And if it happens for a lot of people at the same time, to me it looks like a banwave.

Do you want know how banwave looks like? You should do your research what happened 13/5/2015

that wasnt a banwave lol. why does no 1 anymore know what a banwave is aha. people need to avoid usen words they dont know meaning of lol. honestly no point trying to explain because people for some odd reason think there logic behind how they use it is proper when its 100% wrong and can cause worry for no reason. i blame the new botters for throwing this word around to causally and people picked it up by default and not knowing any better miss use it also and now here we are . Mods are saying its not, programmers are saying its not a banwave but i guess new people to botting know more then us all .

wow, that was extremely funny because i think you were actually trying to make a point. anyways thx 4 the lulz

Look, you don't know me you don't know if I am a programmer or not, or if I am new to botting or not. I talked with Sephirofl who is a mod here and he thinks it is a banwave, so who are you to say it is not? What is a definition of banwave? A lot of bans in one wave, simple as that. It does not matter it was not as big as it was back in May 2015. Banwaves can be big, they can be small. Simple as that. I gave you my opinion on that and you just loled and said that if some people think it is, then it is, without actually trying to disprove me..
I could as well say that people should avoid using words, they can't write gramatically right. In your case, you should not write then at all, but I am not going to say that.

There was no banwave recently.

A MOD HAS SPOKEN

a BANWAVE is something like when glider got detected or the mass honorbuddy banning earlier this year when 95% of people using it got a 6 month ban.

a few hundred accounts banned is NOT a banwave.

"aaaah i got banned!!! must have been a banwave"

rofl

if its a so called banwave why 98% of the people posted here saying its not? zzz this thread needs to be closed so pointless. it was a false alarm of a banwave that never happened but few people got banned, thats it lol. its normal for people to get banned for botting as many do it 24/7, bot same areas, and other non smart things. so just because some idiots got banned because they dont no how to bot properly doesnt mean its a banwave... it means they need to bot smarter... also why target me out of everyone else that said its not a banwave?

Fine, if you wanna just point out what other ppl say, here is an article from one of the mods here who calls it a banwave -> https://unbanservice.com/world-of-wa...eptember-2015/
Of course it is normal that people are banned because they are reckless, the point here is, that mostly people got banned for just fishing for a couple of hours in their garrisons, meaning that this particular bot is detected and not safe to use anymore, even for the most basic tasks. This wave was aimed at people using rebot in general. Not as you call idiots who don't know when to stop. I'd certainly not call it a massive banwave, but banwave nontheless.

It's same with let's say a snapchat. They had several photo leaks. Some were big some were small. But all were leaks nontheless. Just because ocne it was 100 users and the other time 1000 does not make it less of a leak. And you have no exact number for you to say it was just a few idiots. Far more people were reporting it on the rebot forum, reddit, wow forum etc.

And I don't understand why are you asking me why I targeted you. You targeted me with your reply. My original post was not aimed at anyone in particular.

You completely missed the point of that sentence.


Let's not go deeper on this as it just make people go too emotional over a word.
