Lots of mixed messages here. We have a lot of people STILL using the hack as they were from the start (with the exception of autoexplore) like me, and people who are getting banned (such as DemnK's case).

I have been perma banned - luckily for me I have another main account but this hack will get you banned. no questions asked. you dont need server proof or any of that other crap. I havent been online in quite sometime and then as soon as I use it i get banned a few hours later????

edit: i dont have any conspiracy theories, but its pretty simple. used midnight on purchase a while back no issues. used it yesterday and got banned within 2 hours. I used a hack, i got caught...shit happens.

Looking at this case, ANET is being very inconsistent in their bans, since, midnight users like me still aren't being banned. There can only be one explanation, which is that reports on bans are usually manual and sporadic, and looking back to how I got banned before with gZoom from invisible mods, its safe to say that on some worlds there are more mods than others and also at different times. There is definitely NO built-in method of autoban. If you really want to be safe, use another hack in conjunction with midnight that has the radar function so you can check for other people and admins.
So, advice for future midnight users is to only use high profile functions such as teleporting NOT on US peak times (US afternoon to early night), and if you are in a high population server be extra careful of this. If your in a map where theres a lot of people, for example Lions Arch, its obviously a no brainer to not use anything there.
For future posts here on themselves getting banned, please name your world and at what time did you get banned etc. It would really help out other users of midnight atm if we can find out any pattern.
