That's what i adressed in the frist part. Assuming you could gather, you would still lose because the bots would still gather 100x more than real players wich devalues your gathered items below the point where it's sensible to gather. This is why the core issue is that it's hard to limit bot's flooding the market with goods. Unless you can limit them it doesn't really matter if you can gather because it's not a sensible choice either way as you could do something else and get more ressources trading in the same time.
I just think it show's very well how much more effective it was to choose to use the situation than complain/report and get nothing in return. You literally got nothing for being a model wow citizen who reported them and never used them. Trading with them got you at least a piece of the pie even if they still made the bigger profit. It's really the same shit as the home industries dying to cheaper outside labor, you can complain all you want about how much it sucks but the only real option you got it profit along or get nothing.
And apparently a banwave for anyone whos not PC in trade, got permabanned for repeating trump in trade.
They even said "for using mad language" in their final ban notice.
WTB support to call blizzard extremist on their anti-conservative policy's.
Facebook is in trouble, blizzard is doing the same thing, just with way less people effected.

You can't spam. It's common sense.

(ii) Carry out any action with a disruptive effect, such as intentionally causing the Chat screen to scroll faster than other users are able to read, or setting up macros with large amounts of text that, when used, can have a disruptive effect on the normal flow of Chat;
(iii) Disrupt the normal flow of dialogue in Chat or otherwise act in a manner that negatively affects other users including without limitation posting commercial solicitations and/or advertisements for goods and services available outside of the World of Warcraft universe;

I think it is still game licence as they have not specifically mentioned battle.net

What is a new shift this time around though is that Blizzard is officially stating they will accept video evidence as part of their judgement. Still need the mods to act on it though.

Because pretty much everything today is bnet account-wide, I think bans should also be bnet account-wide.
Otherwise botters just buy another account on sale or RaF themselves, bot on second account to get achievements, mounts, pets (and mog items in Legion) for main account. Banning one WoW account is pointless because its just a throwaway account they don't care about.
6 months if you get caught...
18 if they catch you again...
If you compare it to wait time of about 6 months for a real content patch or the usual +12 months content draught before the next expansion is released that sounds like a joke.
