A new wave of bans has hit WoW users of the German bot Honorbuddy.
Blizzard seems to be taking this seriously now. After winning a court case against the bot manufacturer Bossland, the next strike against bot users is now taking place.
The Zwickau-based company Bossland, which produces the bot, recently changed its “lifetime subscription” for the bot retroactively to a two-year subscription due to high court costs and declining revenues. As a result, many “regular customers” saw their bot expire. Anyone who purchased again afterwards to continue botting has likely been caught by Blizzard’s ban wave on February 1.
A corresponding thread in the bot manufacturer’s forum already has 12 pages. “Customers” are complaining there. It is now clear that the product no longer works. They are demanding their money back.
Bossland has no information yet on what caused the ban wave and wants to conduct “investigations”. For years, they have advertised that the bot is “safe” from detection by Blizzard. “Customers” doubt that this still works.
From the outside, it seems quite clear that Blizzard has targeted the company and its bot.
