Ban based on IP?

Hi!

As you can see, I am a new user. So my question might be noob... Smile

I am not talking about banning an IP from the server, but banning an account because a bot connected from that IP.

From what I understand, they ban you based on your character's actions. Would that mean that if I use the program on my second L2 account but not on my main account, I can't get my main account banned? Even if they are both running on the same computer at the same time?

Oh, and I am talking about retail NCSoft-West servers.

I did try to find the answer in other threads but I did not find it.

Thanks! Smile

And sorry if that information was already provided in another thread. Undecided

RE: Ban based on IP?

When ncsoft bans one char they usually aren't smart enough to check the IP for others...

there are many stories where buffer+main were botting on swamp and only main got banned. buffer not. when on same pc.... etc

RE: Ban based on IP?

I am pretty sure they are banning whole accounts. I just wonder if they would ban an account because it is running on the same time/PC/IP as the botting one.

I just don't want to lose my main.

From the few answers I got so far, I guess it is "kinda safe" Smile (we never know with NCsoft!)

yes, you will lose all characters on your account, becouse they ban account, not a single char.
