Risk For Ban @ Expansion Launch For Gathering?

[Lyonheart]

I am already saving up gold to buy shadowlands for all my boxes. I am just thinking... Blizzard can ban anyone for no reason whatsoever. Which is why the "good citizen rule" exists. Be a nice multiboxer, and you're fine. Oneshot players that just want to quest and you'll likely get banned for use of third party software sooner or later.

I was just thinking that... could i p!ss blizzard off if i would use like ten times the bandwidth than a regular player when their servers are already down? (Like at the start of a new expansion.)
That i consume the whole herb/ore by maxing out the tag limit when there are lots of people trying to farm?

I mean, there would be so much gold to make.

What do you think?
Would you multibox-farm herbs and ores at the very launch of an expansion? Would you go as far as maxing out the tag limits?

Yes?

Yes?

Yes to "higher chance for getting banned" or to "would you multibox-farm at the launch of an expansion"?

i dont believe there's a higher chance of getting banned. I think most people getting banned are just dishonest, and their stories of how they got banned are dishonest. My experience with blizzard is that they do investigate before pulling the trigger and since i dont cheat i generally have a quick conversation with them and then go back to my business. And i'm very sure the reports over the years have greatly increased based on public reactions in game, yet the GM encounters have drastically decreased to the point of maybe twice since WoD.

So to answer the question, no. And yes i will farm nodes at the start of shadowlands just like most of us did at the start of BFA.
