TY TY TY
I did the same farming run all weekend, trying to save up for FoW armor.
The funny thing is, I was thinking that this would come of it...can't blame em, I know they are doing their job and it is nice to see that they want to take care of the bot problem, just wsh they could get bots
Thanks again for the speedy reply.

You need to open asupport ticket by going to http://guildwars.com/support/,choosing your region then 'ask a question'. It won't appear for everyone else to see, only support themselves will see it.
Lonesamurai
and the anti bot program owns again! Yay that it works... sucks that you act like a bot... not a bad thing, but zone another way every few times to stop it happening
GD Defender
You must have farmed like a beast. Good luck on your FoW.
Reason
300k in one weekend, though I think it is GG, they probably get this request 1,000 times a day, would be nice if they gave in though and gave it back. Kinda sux to think that this will almost definatly just result in me giving them more businedd to replace the 3 chaters...GG
Thanks again for the help people, and remember, ONLY FARM OLD ASCALON IN NM!!!

grats on getting it back and out of cuiousity where did you perform this bot like activity that a net was watching so i can get my self banned too 
Reason

leaving from Zos-Shivros

At least we know they're banning!

Bot like activity is running straight to merchant/xunlai going through every people in the district, zoning out farming the same spot in teh same way, zone back and repeat. To avoid it, travel somewhere else once in a while, don't take the straight path to the NPCs. Act like you would act if you weren't farming but only playing to get through the game.
MegaMouse
Tijo is right mix up what you are doing every once in a while. Head to an area that you havent been in a while, go to a newbie area and give away a few of the good weapons that you collected (I know I will get flack for that). Just don't do the same thing repeatedly for more than 3 or 4 times before you go somewhere else. Most bots stay in teh same area for hours on end which gives clear indication of what they are.

I thought it was just common sense and at the very least exercise for the brain to change farming spot every once in a while.
That'd be the reason I stopped farming the Corsairs in Zehlon Reach a while ago and switched over to Fahranur, the First City...

I love how the Anet anti-bot-bot is so incredibly bad it never seems to get any real bots...
They should get some real programmers.

even if they were real bots, they could come here and say they werent botting and that they were just farming.
and if they do get bot banned, do you think their owners will come here and say "my account was rightfully banned because i was using a bot"?
not saying that the op is a bot though
glad to know your account was unbanned 
OT: 300k a weekend? wow, nice farming spot you must have there...or does that include power trading?
Reason
umm...what is power trading?
And yeah i would usually change it up but something that pwnage...well...i have an addiction to quick and easy cash...go figure...

Alas Poor Yorick
I would ask:
Did you use the keyboard shortcuts to move to the trader/xunlai agent etc?
It's those keyboard shortcuts the bot programs use to direct the bots through the game by targeting the npcs, enemies and signs (bot programs are not usually hacks of the gw.exe as many people think. They are simply programs that control key presses and simple movements of the mouse pointer.) Unfortunately, if you play the same area for a lot of time during the day, it is a lot easier to use those same kinds of shortcuts to move your character over and over. Target sign, four steps right, out the door etc. It becomes kind of automatic even for a human.
Not saying this is what happened to you but, if you find yourself using the keyboard to move your character, especially in a town or outpost, it might be a good idea to break yourself of that habit. There will be less chance that you will be confused with a bot.

Oh wow i did not know that. I even use a keyboard shortcut to pick up my items. Thanks for that info, very big help.

maybe i used the word wrongly, but what i tried to mean was that if you sold stuff that you found to other players for high prices
RPGmaniac
Basically Power Trading is the practice of buying low and selling high. You need to know the prices and demand of stuff before hand and it helps to be able to negotiate.
Lag Hell
haha, lol, i didnt know they just randomly ban ppl xD
ichigo_panty
Oh no. I might be ban next. I usually farm in 1 area for hours.
Maybe i should /dance before i leave the outpost to tell them i am not a bot.

Bots are still in Granite Citadel 
RPGmaniac
Haven't there always been bots in Granite Citadel?
ichigo_panty
They have been there for nearly 2 years. Bots are everywhere.
No matter how many accounts they ban, the bots will alway exist as there is a demand for them.
However the more accounts they ban, the more money they make.

My account also just got banned. I have never botted in my life. I was farming dead bows outside bergen at the time. I have opened a support ticket and am waiting for a reply. Anet is incompetent.

I've read something ANet never bans for ever..
Just for an amount of days..
And btw, power trading is sort of merchanting, buying things cheap and selling then higher, so you make profit. I think this is the very best way to make money.

Why would a botter bother spending the time posting in this forum that they got banned? Botters get their accounts banned all the time. It's easier (and more money), to just accept it and buy a new account.
Anet unbanned me this afternoon. They said they double checked and I was clearly now a bot.
So go to hell.

BTW, I'm glad you were able to get your issue sorted out.

arguing doesn't solve anything. we have had numerous threads about bots and false bannings etc. and we don't need more.
So stop the arguing.
So stop the arguing.
Qarl
Forcing people to change their playing habits because they "look" like a bot is preposterous! I don't remember reading anywhere in the Terms of Agreement that I must play in a certain way which does not make me look like a robot or I could be permanently banned. I paid a lot of money for all 3 campaigns and if I was unfairly banned I'd be pissed.
Reason, I believe you are exhibiting extreme patience and understanding in these circumstances and I don't believe I would've handled this as calmly.
