New temp ban only post here!

[zackziri]

I really want to mention this. I just made a new account and I have already been blocked. I use a differen ip for every account. I get the "humbled" message All my accounts have been blocked now. Only my main not which I stopped playing when I started botting. Some of these I didn't use for weeks. I had different bot settings based on risk and safety. More risky botting to have quick levels up and safe botting to have these hopefully safe when they started to ban. Every new account has also been blocked sooner or later while botting.

my level 24 account is in times square, mass transfer&evolve, snipe accross the world, moved above 300kmph, unrealistic timeframes. and i live in another continent (+12h). and guess what? its still alive. i stopped botting since the first day of this banwave.

but nvm it didnt fit to your question....

Too soon to proclaim your survival, I stopped botting(safely) 2 weeks ago and they were able to catch all those accounts of mine. I also didn't went max EXP on those since I only aimed certain levels(30~31). I never logged them until I checked their status which was 3 days ago.

[Valsrath]

well rip, they finally got my last 2 level 40 accounts. had a lot of max dragonites and dratini candies and 5m stardust.

Same here. I thought they could have survived, but just found out they got banned last night. Gonna wait it out and see if someone finds a way to avoid these banwaves and continue botting.

[Rinoxita]

Yeah, just checked myself. Niantic is pretty much giving us the middle finger right now.

Link to check open tickets?

I think you can only see tickets if you use gmail.

Has anyone actually had a bot account banned that was strictly local (within 50 miles of home), didn't snipe, didn't mass transfer/evolve, always moved below 10 km/h, used realistic timeframes when jumping, and never got softbanned?

yup here
All that you mentioned
plus i changed kmh each hour from 3.7 up to 4.3 and max 2 h sessions

did you put your account on gym? because thats what happen to my banned account. this is my second account. i stopped botting a week ago. and it got banned after i put it on some gyms.

the account which is i mentioned earlier is my very first account. i played this account legitly from 1 to 21. then i decided to bot it from 21 to 24. stopped because this banwave. i dont put this account on any gyms. just playing it for myself. its not fun tho....

Nope, no gyms or whatsoeverr. I only touched it on one device once to set things up then that's it. No sniping either.
My EXP/hr is around 30~35k. I also botted 2 account max at the same time and I left them alone after they reach reached lvl 30 which was 2~3 weeks ago.

Some of my accounts managed to dodge the first ban wave, but they all got swept during the second ban wave and there's more to come.

That's what i ve received by mail after i did the appeal form.

Thats the automatic response for a "submit a ban appeal"
But if u try it with a "Problems signing into my pokemon go account"

But yes, ofc they may know if u botted, but i think that if u direct submit a ban appeal u are telling them that u used a bot
If u tell them u have problems to log, maybe they will tell u "no, u are banned for using bot" or something like that
That will be better that directly "submit a ban appeal"
is what i think...

Exactly! Already done with no reply

There are a lot of ways to identify a botter or a GPS spoofer:

1) Has been softbanned at least once (because of sniping, teleporting etc) - possible bot or GPS spoof;
2) Moves at a constant speed, always;
3) Teleports instead of moving;
4) Connects with an IP from India, plays in NY Central Park;
5) Sends too many API requests from the same IP;
6) Uses a public proxy or VPN (might be previously blacklisted, might be recognized by the system as a proxy or VPN);
7) Never misses a poke ball;
Plays 24/7;
9) Uses a popular Device ID;
10) Acts in the same intervals, always;
11) Hasn't finished tutorial yet, but still plays;
12) Moves too fast;
13) Gains XP too fast;
14) etc...

So maybe one or combination of few factors is enough to get banned and we don't really know which of these matter. My guess is that they already knew who was botting months ago just didn't take action.

Main account banned. Got greedy and used a bot for a bit on it. Got tired of stopping at gyms and seeing level 30 trainers.

Unless you live in a major city or urban area, the game is pointless as you will never see anything good in the wild even if you use lures and incense. 3 weeks of both netted nothing but an endless supply of Pidgey's, Rattata's and Weedle's.

I had actually spent some real life dollars prior to ever botting the account so I am going the route of playing dumb and "Problems signing into my pokemon account" instead of a ban appeal.

If they are banning me, I want them to tell me that, otherwise, I will be attempting to recoup the money I spent on the game since right now, they have told me nothing and I simply get the message "unable to get data from server"

Have 2 other botted accounts. So far, one is banned, the other is still alive, but it is only a matter of time.

If you get banned just create new one and start botting , create account is super ez and from just single gmail account you can create at least 5-10 users depend the length of username

If you got banned, means you got caught. If you got caught by an automated system which works against specific rules, you will get caught again. No point in wasting time.
