What to do or overthinking after bans

Hi.
I started twinking after I saw Betis guide.
I did the tbc/mecha zone,DF/SL dungeons for gearing 3 warriors and 2 paladins. Also did the 20th anniversary for some starting gear for other chars.
I have been reading on this forum, reddit and wow eu/us forums after the ban wave. Here is my question(s).
I have 5 accounts (play mostly while working nightshifts). I use two laptops. One is where I use my twink and the other is where I have four windows open for my other chars.
I dont use any automation input/3rd party software like old isboxer, I have a follow macro from ingame or I click follow on each char.
All of my chars have the xp debuff, so im not getting any significant xp.
Also use a 80 mage/druid with twink for gear.
After the ban wave I have just lvl a few toons and doing random stuff...

1) Using a twink and 4 lvl 40-70 chars with the xp debuff in TW/other dung is not ok anymore? I understand its clever use of mechanics and ofc I can farm alot of badges. But the time I use is like 2-3 dung pr.hour, 4-5min waiting penalty. I dont use twinks with others in LFD just my accounts.
I also made a full twink team and did farm some TW all with their xpoff (warrior clearing and the others following). From time to time I must press one action button for each char.

2) Farming TBC or other dung with a lvl 80 and one level 10-13 for gear is also not ok anymore? I can clear a dung in 4-5min but almost never 10 dung pr.hour (get gear and move to next or just doing another dung to not get burned out). For this I use two wow windows on main laptop.
I did farm the love is in the air event for tokens.

3) I did a wrath raid with a lvl 80 and lvl 30 for gear, but after reading ppl getting banned for that I didn't want to risk any trouble so I haven't done it again.
Any other with just using their own accounts getting banned? The macro to avvoid the xp penalty is what have gotten ppl into trouble?
Im afraid that just using a twink in a TW dung with 4 other twinks im gearing/dual could also be seen as hacking/cheating. Even gearing from raids or playing solo with a twink doing loremaster ach can be seen as cheating. Or am I just unsure after recent events and make to much assumptions, any thoughts?..Sorry for the long post, im just so unsure what to do. Had a blast with the twinking. Also not native english speaking so hope you understand.
 
i would personally avoid doing any grey area related gameplay, but yeah if youre not circunventing any restriction, queing as a party of 5, using follow macros, u should be good, with the xp debuff and everything, but i'm personally waiting a few days to see what is the future of the bans

This is 100% my stance too. I never did the XP debuff bypass thing and I *think* that was the major problem. BUT I'm seeing too many reports of other situations leading to a ban to be comfortable. You should always take these with a grain of salt. People lie. It reminds me of Red being the only guilty man in Shawshank.

Permanently banning in some cases a 20 year old account over what seems to be some largely meaningless "exploit" (I'm sorry but "levelling slightly faster" is the WoW equivalent of doing 20 over the speed limit) is such a severe action that Blizzard has to address what changed and what's problematic.
 
According to a friend who got in contact with a "Carry twink" the only account which he got banned was the one using the "gottagofast AF" 6 SL gems socketed min-maxing 49% speed + cloak and boots speed enchants.
(I'll ask if he got better screenshots, since my account its gone. )

Thx for the feedback. I think that having the debuff on all my chars, the carry twinks also had to wait/move slower in dung helped me this time. Hope we will get some blue post from blizz soon.
No grey area or any twink movement before we know whats going on.
