imagine you’re living in a small city with total population of 300,000 numbers Yet 167799 of them are criminals xD
Rip cheaters
bots don’t raid so they aren’t counted on ironforge, we have a legit playerbase of 300k or so who raid and then another couple of hundred thousand bots i’d guess
true, but the amount of banned accounts is hilarious!
+150k bot been running freely destroying the world
Blizzard should never wait for cheaters/hackers/bots to stack up till the next ban wave! they should ban them on weekly basis
Ever been in a PuG?

Nah, they’re legit numbers.
What Blizzard doesn’t tell you is they waited long enough till those accounts were profitable before nuking them. So the operators just made new accounts. Probably on the same Bnet Account, too.
((Because the ban policy is to ban the offending GAME account. Not the offending BattleNet account.))

the funny thing is that "by blizzard suddenly banning all bots / gold sellers…etc
the gold seekers won’t be able to get gold from black markets therefore they will buy tokens from shop and put it on the AH which will make tokens sell for less gold!
even if token reached low amount as ~3k gold seekers will still buy tokens for 20$ and place it on AH because they can’t playing without buying gold lol, and as gold becoming more value we can expect 3rd party gold sites to get new accounts, buy shop boost to level fast so they can run bots again and start selling gold cheaper than token to gain income.
in the end blizzard is gaining more profits with this process of long term ban because if they are banning cheaters/bots/hackers on instant, none of the those 3rd party would bother subbing to wow if they know they can get ban before they sell anything worthy.

There’s no way to tell the difference between a “retail account” and a “classic account”, so the post they made is just deceptive by being in here and signed by the classic team.
It’s overall accounts for both classic and retail.
How do we know these are accurate numbers? They toss out a random number and say “bots are very advanced lol” while the problem in-game is just as bad as it was before they “did a ban wave”.
If players can see the same bots with their own eyes, go to the same places seeing the same number of bots, and this is AFTER a “ban wave”…that’s a little more trustworthy than a company who is now selling gold to say “just trust us kek”
