Boosting is against S2 ToS. I have never done it before and I strongly advise against it. However, if you must do it, I'd hate to see a fellow jsper banned / suspended, so here are some tips
1) Keep all communication about the job anonymous so there's no way it can be linked back to your HoN account. NEVER use HoN forum PM system, moderators / S2 can read your private messages.
2) Never mention in any game how the account you are using is not yours.
3) Try to play behind a VPN / proxy if possible. Public proxies are way too slow of course, but if you get a private server or a good VPN network, you can still have high-speed internet. This makes it so S2 cannot compare IP logs of the boosted account against yours and see that you played on it.
4) The most obvious thing that seems to get alot of people caught is streaming. Do NOT stream boosting. Anyone (including S2) can look at your stream.
Remember, you are behind a computer. Nobody will know you boosted anything unless you tell them. Keep it a secret and there's no way S2 will do anything to you. Also note that technically boosting is "illegal". A moderator once told me that S2's legal team deals with people who are caught several times. However, if its the same legal team that negotiated the "no DotA ports" thing, you probably have nothing to worry about there.
s2 legal team, sounds like the 5 hookers they picked up in Kalamazoo
also playing with someone "exclusively" is not boosting
ie testi + amy.
efags.
