Banned! ROFL! : World of Warcraft General Discussions

After using BWH successfully for around 2.5 weeks, Blizzard finally caught up with me (and two friends). I believe they caught us because one of my friends was being VERY obvious with the Lock Speed while in stealth mode with Rogue... 15-0 or 20-0 in most battleground rounds is gonna send up a red flag.

First e-mail from Blizzard:

"Hello ,

* * * NOTICE OF ACCOUNT CLOSURE REVIEW * * *

Account Name: DENTMAN06
Character Name: Crovean
Realm: Gilneas

Offense: Violation of Exploitation and Client/Server Manipulation Policy -
Unapproved Third Party Software

Details:
Character was found to be using a Third-Party application that allowed him/her
to instantly teleport to locations in the game and/or move at speeds
unobtainable by the standard game client. Use of these Third-Party applications
are in breach of the Terms of Use.

The actions detailed above have been deemed inappropriate for World of Warcraft
by the Blizzard Entertainment In-game Support Staff. As a result, the World of
Warcraft account has been given a 72 hour account suspension and will not be
accessible for the duration thereof. This World of Warcraft account has also
been forwarded to our Account Administration team for review of current and
previous policy infractions to determine if further account actions, up to and
including account closure, are necessary. Our Account Administration team will
contact you with a decision once all information has been reviewed.

Thank you for respecting our position on this matter.

In addition, not even 72 hours later (i think it was like 12) My two friends and I got the second e-mail:

"***Notice of Account Closure***

Hello,

Access to the World of Warcraft account DENTMAN06, and any World of Warcraft
account associated with the payment information you have provided, has been
permanently disabled. The account has been identified as having used
unauthorized game modifications and thus is in violation of the World of
Warcraft Terms of Use.

Please review the World of Warcraft Terms of Use at
<http://www.worldofwarcraft.com/legal/termsofuse.html>, which you accepted when
you installed World of Warcraft and established the account(s). Section 2,
Paragraph C details the limitations of game play modifications and use of any
third-party or "packet sniffing" software. In addition, Section 3, Paragraph C,
parts iii and iv restrict the use of any hack, scripting or macroing software
which obtains information from World of Warcraft to gain a competitive advantage
over other players.

Furthermore, any activities not intended by game design which affect the
economy, the client, player characters or the world itself have a tremendous
negative impact on the potential enjoyment for all players. The effects of these
activities take many forms including a bloated game economy, server instability,
and allowing unauthorized access to accounts, computers, and player data.

As a result, the account(s) will no longer be accessible and will unfortunately
not be reopened under any circumstances.

Thank you for your understanding in this matter and respecting our position and
all statutes within the World of Warcraft Terms of Use.

ROFL! Its a good thing I like Counter-Strike way better or else I would have been seriously pissed off. My friends and I just laughed and are moving on to other games. i still have my Lineage 2 and Guild Wars accounts though that they haven't caught yet =)

Just a warning to you guys out there, if you use ANY of the BWH functions, do NOT use them (aside of tracking) in Battlegrounds. Also, don't let anyone see you teleport or lock speed while stealthed. In addition if you keep resetting an instance and teleporting straight to the boss (we got mad gold by farming bosses in razorfen), you are going to get caught eventually.

Much love to all you exploiters out there. Keep up the good work. Everyone please have fun and exploit, just do it cautiously. I don't think the Tracking function will get you caught though. They didn't even mention it in the above e-mails. Also apparently buying gold is illegal too because it "unbalances and inflates the economy in World of Warcraft" they told my other friend. HAHA... someone had to earn it so I am not quite sure how it makes it unbalanced OR inflated. Bastards.

Later...

That sucks sry.

Hmm, blizzy like to give a nice friendly hello, before utterly raping your acccount i guess..

Unlucky man, go for a freewow server perhaps.

It doesnt matter if anyone spots you using the teleport hack. Once you do you're flagged, and banned.

I AM BANNED NOW YAY

1: Old topic.
2: Dont flame.
3: Take anger management courses.

I cant beleive people are still using teleport hacks. How many times does this need to be said. Teleport hacks are one of the EASIEST hacks to detect.

Yeah. No sympathy here.

same hear dude

if u gonna use hacks atleast do not get cought using them

...a bit like walking across a highway blindfolded, it might work for awhile but eventually...

read that somewhere on these forums months and months ago, and got the message. my accounts are worth way too much to risk banning.

i just hope they dont come after x in the way they are goin after some of the other programs.

Yes wowsharp is getting thier asses kicked right now... Been down a while now.

Well wowsharp has problems because they inject in the game which makes its easily detectable we have something coming that should fix that Friday it should be done adn release next week is the game plan.

Friday as in the 21? What are you planning to do if I can get a little hint?

If all goes well donkey yes.

It’s very easy to get around the Warden actually. I would be willing to help out for some info. exchange. I’ve already developed what you guys would drool over and it’s been used to lay hidden from better IDSs then Blizzard’s.

Just a note – the offer doesn’t include source code. If you’re good enough to reverse eng. it (first implying that you have the right debugging tools) then you probably could have written it yourself.
