I'd like to know how people approach temp bans. 

I typically bot to build accounts up, so it's a long term commitment with a short botting period per day (4-5hrs max) and running maybe 3-4 bots at a max.

One of my bots got a temp ban today probably from not diversifying behaviour enough, but am now stuck in a situation where i have a decent starter account (70 agility, almost all non combat stats 50-70) with a red mark against the name. 

I am of the opinion that this doesn't make me more 'at risk' but rather the account has used its one and only 'get out of jail free' card. Is this consistent with how you guys see it?

What do you do after a temp ban and what has been successful for you? Followup question what would you do with the account described above (let's say 2m total exp, mith glove quested and 70 agil)

stop right there if you care about the account. U wont get the free card after next ban.

continue as if nothing happened untill it gets banned and then make a new one.

thats what i do

But quashes do happen

I never bot after a temp ban unless its a throwaway account. I've had a few accounts get permed pretty quickly after their temp was up, while botting different things than I was prior to the temp each time. I've also never had any of my bans quashed. If it's an account you actually care about I wouldn't bot it anymore. If it's just a throwaway then keep going I suppose, or sell it so you at least get something out of your investment into it.

There is more than 1 unban method, and if you arent home ip ban then theres a very high unban rate like 70%+

Interesting range of opinions.

Quashes do happen but i think it's safe to say unless you plan ahead and go through the extra paces it's not a likely option.

I guess with some soul-searching I would never play the account again without a bot, guess i'll keep on going. I do believe there are certain 'traps' you can fall into and also avoid, meaning the possibility of growing out combat stats at this point is probably available as the ban rates are low.

Always interesting to hypothesize on this, as I always play multiple accounts and look to match bans with unique behaviors to the account. Either it was a player report or poorly varied behaviour or Khal's Wintertodt as i'm convinced APA Rooftops was not the trigger and i run pretty low hrs/day. Wouldn't be my first suspicion of the last one TBH.

They happen rarely and almost nobody knows the real good method to get a ban quashed.

I don't imagine it's that difficult
