I managed to get a stupid 72 hour ban for just using a stay alive script to sit in the xp farming spots. Stupid.

They are recording keystrokes that are over and over again it seems like. So just make sure bots have a randomization in there for the pathing to get around that.

I use an AutoIT macro that auto-loots by spamming the "F" key every 250ms.

I've been AFK for at least a couple of hours while it sat doing nothing but spamming the "F" key, and I've had no trouble, but then there was absolutely zero chance anyone would have reported me because I haven't done it in XP-generating areas.
