New temp ban only post here!

[Resonare]

Fear-mongering. US login servers are having issues on both Google and PTC sides atm. See here: Is Pokémon GO down or not?

I'm in Europe (UK) though :S

[aaronwarthur]

this does not answer my question...

As yet, I haven't seen any proof posted, but people have claimed they're innocent.

[DucksAccounts]

Scaremongering retard ****ing idiot kids I told you six hours ago it's server issues and no one is patient enough to wait and see. Go get some brains.

As yet, I haven't seen any proof posted, but people have claimed they're innocent.

Could be related to the current client (Pokémon GO app) not having an actual "you're banned" message.

[Fadelol]

If it's related to speed, has someone tried it with simulating human walking and lower speeds?

I observe the same issues I have been writing about in this thread with 3 km/h, new account, new IP-address(at home, spoofed MAC received new from ISP) and simulate human walking using Necro. The issues I am observing are:

- Catch escape which is entirely separate from the two below

- Loot soft ban based on time logged in or Pokéstops
- IP-ban triggered by above loot soft ban (no Pokéstops detected)

I know it is an IP-ban and not server issues because if I spoof my MAC-address and receive a new IP it works again for either x time or y Pokéstops before the loot soft ban is triggered (bot attempts to spin) and thereafter a new IP-ban on the new address.

Yeah. It's kind of annoying that Niantic don't make anything clear and rarely make official posts. Disconnection in communication with your audience is very unprofessional.

[vetonzz]

its clearly not an ip ban...flagged into 1 of your account
idk why....

using same ip login into my friend acc...failed to get data from server
but can login into my acc..can see gym and poke stop

[W8maxxie]

I can log-in , when i use snipe it says pokemon arent awalible, when iam trying to quicksoft unban it says u arent banned ... wow

I'm with you. We just have to wait and see. There's a lot going on and we will only be able to know things for sure in time... So guys I know it's hard (even though not as hard as this bitch ban) but we gotta get our shit together and be patient. Some people still botting hard af and they're ok, some others being claiming they had their accounts banned, some other people with legit accounts are saying they got the same message all over the world. Europe, US and so on. It's pretty messed but there's nothing else we can do besides wait. Everytime I refresh this post I read something new and get a little mad but that's on me because I knew this could happen at some point, right? But then again, we don't know for sure.

I like to be updated as well and know wtf is going on too but right now I think the best thing to do is just wait. I have 4 accounts and only one got that message. It was the one I let running the bot over night... This morning I woke up and tried to enter the game by my phone and it was alright for at least 10m then crashed and when I tried to login again I got the message like 4 to 5 hours ago.

I'm guessing tomorrow it will be alright. If not later on today or never idk, we don't know right? Let's get us some beer and chill out for a second, shall we? Amen kids

I am observing the same issue, here are my observations that I have repeated a number of times now:

• Bot gets started, only one bot per IP-address
• Regardless of settings you get to loot 3-4 Pokéstops and can catch Pokémon while doing so
• On the 4th or 5th Pokéstop you get what appears to be a soft ban that would normally be lifted by spinning the Pokéstop
• Regardless of how long you wait with the bot spinning the ban is not lifted
• Upon restarting the bot you are now receiving the error that no usable Pokéstops can be detected
• The new ban is IP-based, you cannot run another bot on the same IP-address without receiving the previous
• Using a new IP-address and a new account loops this procedure

It appears the new tougher loot soft ban triggers an IP-ban. Can anyone else reproduce or confirm this behavior?

Exact same thing happened here. Don't know what triggered the softban in the first place tho, as it was just walking around my neighborhood at 3km/h for like 30 mins. One bot, no sniping, no high speed.

[fangers2]

For me I can't see anycontent if I use the IP I've been botting and sniping on but if I turn off wifi on my phone and login it's all fine so looks to me like IP ban, for how long I'm not sure. Only started an hour ago for me.

Sums it. Been going through the same loop. Pretty sure its no longer just IP soft bans cuz I've a paid VPN.

[noobcakes69]

Well, I might as well go and play something else. If it's confirmed banned, I might as well sell my other accounts.

[Kuro091]

So um what can you do to fix the ip ban (can't see any pokestops and pokemons) ? I've tried VPN but as soon as I get back to my IP I got banned again
