TheRavenOsrs Posted June 20, 2018 Posted June 20, 2018 (edited) Hey guys, quick question I was hoping some of you could broaden my knowledge on the ‘Hardware ID’ (HWID) aspect when it comes to Botting.. Following reading a Botting guide it was suggested I change this before I start so I did (whilst saving the original ID for my main) As far as this forum is concerned, from what I’ve read I’m currently doing things mostly right. Purchased a proxy for a fresh IP, made said bot account on the new IP rather than my main ip, botted ‘smartly’ and if anything possibly a tad overly cautious for the first week. I was only posing this question as I would like to add some suicide bots in to the mix, either on a new vpn/proxy to the main bot and main legit account and wondered how PC hardware ID came In to the equation and if anyone here has knowingly been banned due to this. Sorry that this was a tad jumbled, it seemed an odd question to ask. I will happily clarify anything in the comments below. Thanks! Raven Edited June 20, 2018 by TheRavenOsrs

I understand the basic concept of a windows computers hardware ID and why it is there. I am just checking with experienced botters to see if hardware id bans were a thing like this person stated or if I/others who got this information had been unknowingly scaremongered Edited June 20, 2018 by TheRavenOsrs

Yes, only thing putting you in danger would be if both the accounts interacted frequently but it would be negligible.

Hardware id is not something that can be changed or is specific to an operating system.
