Restricted fromthis realm. I started using mm.bot last night for the first time. Woke up this morning, had a unid ss, and a pretty good sc in my stash. I had to go to the DMV today to get my tags, and I thought, Hmm! What a wonderful opportunity to run my bot! So... I get home, and my connection is recstricted. "Okay," i say to myself "That happened last night, the bot will just sleep it off." So... here it is about an hour later, and it's still restricted. Just want to make sure I didn't get banned or anything.... I also have a question about multiple keys, but I'll save that. Thanks in advance =]

EDIT : Read manual more carefully (grammar...?) and I guess its just an IP Ban / Realm Down. It just seems like an awful long time for that... Since 10 am, its now 2 pm...

I believe there is a limit, 20 games per hour? If your bot keeps going over that limit, your realm restrict duration would get longer. A way to avoid that would be switching to a different cd-key after the limit.

I know it's not a perm. ban, because I've gotten this before (angry about an expired character, and refusing to accept he was gone... so I clicked it about 40 times with fairly interesting results.... but after those results I got that same thing)

My advice is, if for whatever reason you just can't wait 24 hours - don't bother to finish reading this... if you can, than just do so and you'll be fine.

It's still down... Ugh. The thing is, I have 2 key sets, cuz I have one that I use with loader. So I tried to configure the settings for two keys and it still wont let me on.

it is because it temp blocks your IP......if you have a router you can change the mac address on, clone the mac address from your computer and you will have a different ip.....you will be able to get back in then.

Theres a wireless router in the living room. I'm connected via antenna. I've restarted my computer, and been off d2 for 8+ hours. Not like I'm deprived, just worried. Lol. Is it supposed to take this long...?

Sometimes it takes all day, and if you try to log in during that time, I am told it just extends the time. When I run my bot, I run 9 runs and sleep 25 minutes. Sometimes that is still too much depending one what is happening. Just wait it out or change realms and to play. I have a USWest account for just such occasions.

Honestly by this time (the time you read this post) you just may be able to get back on, usual temp. bans from blizzard are only 24-48 hours, if more they will most likely notify you VIA email.

I was finally able to get back on at around 11 pmlast night. I'm thinking I should try to set up 2 keys... Ran from 12-7:08 am and did 99 runs, but with 18 fails. ._.
