Ban after barely botting?

Just got a 2 day ban on my new account. Botted account for about 12 hours at Pest Control. Never botted for more than 5 hours at a time, and did it over the course of 2 days. If I have a break from work and school, there's a good chance I'll play that much, so it wasn't an unfathomable amount of play time.

This makes me wonder - why did I get caught? I never botted for longer than I could have played myself, and I did the botting in a time frame that is realistic.

Any thoughts? And also, will they take my void?

Pest control is a hot spot
No they wont take Void
Should've switched up activities
If your regular gameplay doesnt match up with botting game play expect a ban

95% of people at PC are bots (and that's being generous with the %'s)

From my experience, it doesn't matter how long you bot, it's what you bot.
If you don't want to lose the account, don't bot on it again.. and no, you won't lose your void.
So you probably got reported by a legit player for not closing the gates..

Well at least I got my set before the ban, and thank god they wont take it. I can't stomach the thought of playing PC for 15 hours. Thanks for the help!

Being new is like a massive red flag. You should never bot on this account again now btw. Pest control is like the worst thing to bot apart from willows at draynor.
Like a new account should be played legit till mid level in my opinion to avoid those early bans.

this^ or just incubate accounts by making them a month prior and letting them sit for a while, casually log into them throughout the incubation period.
