This thread existing doesn't make it any easier for them to detect "us" or botting. Anyone with that mindset must be new to the botting scene.
The methods used to detect botting haven't changed. They may have some things that are unique to their anticheat/bot detection strategy, but generally it comes down to:
Player reports (leaving your bots on too long, bots doing stupid things/dying a bunch of times, bots not answering whispers, bots running "bot trains")
Once the original report happens, it gets investigated and they ban you, then:
Your IP is flagged
Your HWID is flagged
After that it falls on the botter to take the measures to protect themselves. Both my IP and my HWID are flagged, so if I start a new bot it gets canned by level 10 if I'm lucky, usually by around level 5. That's why you need to run VMs + Proxies or VMs + VPNs.
If anyone's interested I can make a guide explaining how to set all this shit up so you can feel more secure and not worry about people posting on the forums ?
