A guy I met claimed that he was banned at lvl 74(HE). He said GM's don't ban you...its the people.
He also said that botting in populated areas is the dumbest thing you could do. Like Catacombs and Necropolises.
His account was banned because he was an !@#$%^&* to everyone and he'd been seen boting by lots of poeple. They all reported him and bam.
However, stay low when you bot and don't PvP with people, being friendly and logging on attack is the safest way.
