I think I got temp restriction

I apologize if this is unrelated to the D2Bot program, but I was wondering what steps you guys take after getting temp restriction?

I did a little research on how exactly blizzard takes action once they detect you, and from my understanding they go as far as banning your IP address to the point where you have to wait until your IP refreshes or you make a call to your ISP to have it changed. Is this my only option or is there something else I can do to start the process of botting again?

Thanks in advance!

I received a realm down in the morning, which put me in a queue of 1,700,000. That’s more than 2 weeks wait time. According to blizzard if you receive 500,000+ wait time, it means they flagged you for something.

But I think I figured out what happened. I was able to log on to other realms no problem, but because I wanted to try to bypass the r/d, I tried using a VPN, and immediately soon after I was not able to connect at all.

my guess, they gave me 1 warning, and by using a VPN that was a 2nd infraction, which resulted in a perma ban.

Since 30th May 2017, some VPN’s can bring you key jail for 24h

I can log on to d2.server now, but still have to wait 3 weeks lol.

Don’t use misleading topic titles.

I was actually under the impression I was banned. This has never happened before, but thanks to the people who kindly replied I now know it’s just a temp restriction.
