I think that their tool could be too resource intensive to use on the whole Tibian population. Thus they only use it on new accounts that meet certain criteria, like being created from a suspicious IP/HWID, and people who accumulate enough reports or have a suspicious level to accomplishment ratio or something like that.
Yes. But you're already modifying the client when you inject the bot.
He made his statement a bit too strong but it's pretty much true. Get banned a few times more times and they will eventually start banning all your new accounts within a few hours unless you take precautions.

using xeno mc is modifying i'd suggest using a seperate mc like neo mc
Sold level 8 on all servers to Stusse.
Sold level 162 rp to Tavarski.
Bought 250+ Ek from Czoger.
Bought a Chayennes Magical Key for cash from bleed.
There are 2 types of people.
1)Those who can count.
3)Those who can't.

I bot till 14h stamina, then I change the character on the account back & fourth it goes. Got a few accounts up to level 200+ before I sold them, so no that is also pure bullshit
200 is not a long time. Botting for long hours repeatedly probably makes it easier for them to detect you but it's definitely not an instant death sentence. In the end we have no good data, it just makes a lot of sense that long hours would be a contributing factor. In fact, regular deletions are so rare that it's very hard to gather data on anything. What we should focus on when trying to figure out their system are the instant deletions they hand out to new accounts.
remake old deleted accounts with the exact same info (account/pw/email), then the ban/deletion comes faster.
Im just curious, Ive used Xeno to bot about 5-8 accounts simultaneously with MC basically from ss to ss and full afk most of the time and I only ever had 1 Facc knight get deleted.(botting in thais undeads 24/7). Now obviously times have changed. So I really wanted to start botting my 110ish premium EK account again at Banuta Apes. This account was botted 24/7 full afk for months. The account has 3 knights that I would swap when stamina got too low. Do you think he wasn't deleted based off the fact that apes is a ghost town? Would starting him up and doing the same thing again now being a completely different story most likely?
Even though MCing per se isn`t illegal, speculating with some data we have, in my opinion MCing could rise your deletion probability. The mechanism is plausible too, certainly CIP can see wether you are logging in from the standard client or the flash client, and it should be no problem if you do that. But there are any complex bots out there for flash client? I doubt it. If CIP sees that there are 2 C++ clients logged in with the same MAC addres/HDID or whatever it's at least suspicious and maybe it could get you detected instantly if you cast spells at the same time on both clients. It`s a lot easier and cheaper to detect than to have big systems to analyse deviations from normal targeting behaviour, paths that the char goes by, etc.
At least 82% of deleted accs people posted on Wind forums (out of 207 analyzed posts) used MC, it could be only an association due to botters behavior, but it could well be one of the methods used, along with too much reports, too long hunting,etc.
