I'm wondering how many hours a day you guys are using the miner and if you had had any problems like warnings from ccp or banned accounts.

In the past I've used it from dt to dt without an issue. But now I mine about 12 hours a day with two different toons so it comes out to about the same.

I also move around a lot which helps.

Had a guy in local once ask if I was a "bot", now I avoid that area, but I suspect he was doing the same thing.

IMO the only way to get caught is if someone reports you. I don't think ccp has a macrominer task force that monitors the universe.

I've been into it 23/7 for many months with no hassles. :P
Forget suicide gankers, the biggest threat is anyone thinking your a macro miner and simply raising a petition...then your fubar.

so what is the best way to keep people from thinking you are a bot?

With gate mining it isn't to hard to go unnoticed.

I move around but not a lot. I move around mainly so I don't kill all the belts in my favorite systems.

What I've started doing is gate mining on the weekdays, and normal mining on the weekends. Helps keep my belts healthy in both systems.
