Or for auction bots, couldn't Blizz write a script that checks "this account exclusively purchases items on the AH within 1 minute of auctions going live, and does so 24 hours a day, refreshing every 15 seconds or so"? ![]() This is something I have wondered for years - with how often bots are used in games (not just D2/D3, but tons of other games I've played over the years), why is it difficult to detect and ban?įor example, and I'm just speaking intuitively here, I would imagine everyone's gold and session time is a database entry somewhere - couldn't you pull up all entries over 500M or so, and cross reference with sessions over 24 hours (with no idles or something)? I'm sure there are plenty of legit players with over 500M in the bank, but no so many legit players with that much AND logged in with no idles 24 hours a day.
