I wonder if the escape rate "bug" that appeared a few updates ago was actually a trap to catch botters? They could've possibly flagged all accounts that had a success rate significantly over the average.

> My main account presumably got banned this morning. Play manually until 15, 16 to 28 constantly heavily sniping and bot within the past few days. Yesterday, bot nearly whole day and whole night so probably 10h+ non stop. I used the Necro DreamTeam100IV bot + location feeder. So yeah, got the "failed" error thing this morning.
> Created another dummy account through PTC. Use high exp config 130k, 1 to 20 in about 4 hours. Several soft ban, some catch flee. Still fine (probably have to check again tomorrow, might get the fail message later). I used fixed version necro bot without location feeder. Now swaping to the dreamteam bot with the location feeder. We'll see what happen
Thoughts:
DO NOT CONSTANT BOT WHATSOEVER (MAYBE 3-4 HOURS MAX. THEN HAVE SOME REST) DO NOT MULTIPLE BOT AT THE SAME TIME. DONT CRAZY SNIPE.
*I'm pretty sure that is a lot more to add to this. Something like i keep open and close to program several times so it keep asking for the API or whatever that is.

After reading all pages and collect info from different forums I can say that the perm ban (error in login screen)
has to do with a combination of following factors:
-Account got a softban before?
-IP range and your current player position shouldnt be in a big difference (like your ip is from UK and you bot in USA your acc is flagged)
-Movement speed should not be higher then walking/jogging - ignoring the info that youre a co-driver maybe flags your account too, because its not a problem to play pokemon while driving but a problem ignoring the message because as normal player you couldnt do more action when you not confirm the message
-Online time - it could be a factor when the bot runs for 10+ hours, human like would be 3-4 hours and then a break when youre extreme 
-Using Pokesniper can be a factor but not sure yet
-Using a fixed amount of Pokestops / catching Pokemon within 24 hours which is not human like.
After considering a lot of reports about bans I can say that the IP range is the most striking point in this ban issue.When your IP is in city a and your character comes to city b which is KMs away from your normal position your acc is flagged. In combination with other points the accounts get banned.

The thing with IP its not true, if you travel and use phone (play legit) your IP on phone will still be from your country. So how they can know that im not from UK and i travel to USA?

Due to known6 data anyone who botted is pretty much on a ban list; either now or at some stage in the future. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted 
Go here for thread: Unknown6, and why you got that ban: : pokemongodev

When your phone is in USA and you play your IP will be in USA too.

No. Make some research before you post.

As I said it must be a combination of 1-3 facts.
How many people play pokemon and travel worldwide from country to another? I think its under 1%. It is not important how it works but as I read from many reports the IP distance has a role! So if your phone Ip is in UK and youre in USA your account is flagged. In combination with other facts your acc get banned.
