So today I received a 6 month suspension.
Yes, I know I’m obviously lying, Blizzards AI detecting software is flawless.
Nope, I’ve never used bots before, I don’t even know how. I only have 3 characters at max level, all levelled the old fashioned way (WoW paid character boost to 50 and then mix of quests/dungeons), I don’t engage in any farming activities like mining or herbing.
I literally only do 3 activities on my DK and WW, my Druid is parked, I don’t like him. Torghast, RBGs and 3v3. That’s it, no levelling alts, no raiding, no farming, no world quests/anima grind, no dungeons M+. I have full 226 ilvl on my DK and 220 on my Monk, I don’t need to farm honor so no botting on BGs either.
So how on earth, am I botting?

Open a customer support ticket and have someone look into it. Mistakes can happen, and they can be corrected.

You got caught. Man up. Take the ban on the chin, learn your lesson and come back in 6 months.

Considering the fact you can’t post on forums while suspended as far as I recall, secondary account? Maybe do you multibox and do input broadcasting?

Nope, only account I’ve had for nearly 20 years.
Don’t multi box. I’m not a farmer, I have a great job, don’t need to sell gold online. All I do in this game is PvP.
To ppl telling me I’m lying, I wish I was. If I was I’d own it and wouldn’t be making a post here as the GMs have evidence of me lying.
I am really confused though because I repeat, I don’t level any characters I literally paid for wow character boost for all my max levels, I don’t do any farming, nothing, no herbing , no mining, I don’t even do worldquests let alone farm.
I literally use wow to do 3v3 with friends, RBGs and Torghast for my legendaries.
That’s it, so I would love to know also, wth triggered my ban?
Does it specifically state botting or is it unauthorized programs?
Because VM and VPN can get you banned as well if detected.
Nope. Look at my gear, and my other character (monk), I don’t need honor. I’m
Honor capped all the time from
Arena and RBGs.
Did you play through a remote connection, eg, Team Viewer or something ?
It says use bot or third party automation software.
I don’t use VPNs either. All I use my computer for is WoW and YouTube/twitch
It was just a thought because that’s one of the reasons the blanket botting seems to cover. In any case if you feel you’ve done nothing wrong, just appeal and hope you’ll get a human instead of auto reply from a real bot.

Did you have AutoHotKey running in the background? (even if not for WoW, just having it running is something blizz sometimes flags as botting)
Well, the thing is no one here would be able to tell you what triggered your ban. The only people that can is through tickets I’d suspect. But even then they really don’t like to give clear answers when it’s for botting/cheating.
Regardless if you’re lying or not you will get nothing out of posting it on the forums. Other players can’t help you and Blizzard representatives do not discuss these matters in public channels anyways.
Just wait for your support ticket.
No I don’t even know what that is.
You’re right guys, I’ll get no help here but thought someone might have been through a similar situation.
I was kinda angry at first but it is what it is. It’s a mistake so hopefully I’ll be back in 2 days, if not oh well. Cest la vie
Be careful out there though. All I did was spam 3v3 this weekend, no wonder my win rate is so bad, should have been playing my account rather than using a bot! My poor arena partners will get glad now.

I had problems with blizzard aswell before try sending them a ticket if that doesn’t work try a online chat. wich uselly solves the problem but i had some real pieces of work in those chat in that case send their legal team a letter telling your situation.
Wouldn’t worry about that sliver of car, there’s a squirrel tricycle hidden in that bush on the right you’re going to miss anyway!
How’re you posting with a banned account? Unless it takes the forums awhile to register?
You 100% sure it wasn’t some fishy email?
Or was it presented on log in?
