I didnt get any ban at the moment, also doing gathering / aethertapping / NoAni, were you playing in NA or EU?, also did you have any method of protection for your bots?, i.e, using return/scroll when he meet a player in range?.

Yeah, it has a few:

Code: Select all

	-- Indicates whether or not to suspend activity with an enemy player in the area.
		ProtectionEnemy = true,
		-- Indicates the action when ProtectionEnemy is true and an enemy is found. Console command, i.e. "/Skill Return" or "/Use Morheim Fortress Scroll".
		ProtectionEnemyEscape = "/Skill Return",
		-- Indicates whether or not to suspend activity with a friendly player in the area.
		ProtectionFriendly = true,
Also cooco posted a protection script to logout if certain player is in your range

I believe with a few modifications it can make your character logout if anyone is in range despite their nickname.

Regarding your ban, its hard to tell if you were checked by a GM or reported by lots of players, the best way is to use the protection methods mentioned before, its better to reconnect every now and then than loosing your account. ;)

In NA you get automatically banned only if you bot too many hours in one area etc. If you change locations or stop it and restart it later etc you won't get banned.
