FYI, the app now may ask for a captcha on logging in. I got a warning on one of my accounts that 3rd party software had been detected. The bot software no longer runs after it logs in and gets the profile info, I worry that trying to use the software and not dealing with captcha might be an extra flag on the account.

Thank you for the good times and the help, I must admit that I play the game more in real life because I had the bot, than if I didn't.

rbliu commented 8 years ago

Same happened to me today. I suggest that they are going to ban some bot-users with flags. Though it would be wise to keep low profile in these couple of days, I really do not care if they do ban all my accounts given this game is such a geographical discrimination. Good luck to everyone.

ttpeter commented 8 years ago

I'm continue botting on 1 of my flagged account with same config I been using. Let's see how far it can go.

DarthKeizer commented 8 years ago

yeah messedup 👎

vanbwodonk commented 8 years ago

@DarthKeizer me too, can't spin pokestop. Turn off my bot now.

DarthKeizer commented 8 years ago

@vanbwodonk I think it is temp banned then...?

gise88 commented 8 years ago

https://2captcha.com/ can be a workaround

camnomis commented 8 years ago

I have three accounts:

Main - some botting, mainly for sorting and evlvoging Bot 1 - Main bot account, bots quite heavily now a level 31 but still log on with a genuine app every now and then Bot 2 - Pure bot

Main account is fine, but will keep it off the bot for the time being Bot 1 got the warning about activity Bot 2 got the capture screens.

Bot 2 is running, Bot 1 is logged in to see if the warnings drop off after a period of "normal" play

This issue must be solved on api level. If it will be solved at all...

GhosterBot commented 8 years ago

Fresh new Bot (latest dev branch), only 4 minutes old :

[  SpinFort] [INFO] Pokestop Balls On Road out of range.
[  SpinFort] [INFO] Possibly searching too often, take a rest.

no more Pokemon found and all further fort out of range,

not good at all...

cmezh commented 8 years ago

@GhosterBot temporarily solved it by logging in with app and manually passing captcha

GhosterBot commented 8 years ago

ok. So Niantic detect suspect behavior after just 4 minutes of a fresh new bot account catching pokemon and spinning forts...

camnomis commented 8 years ago

@cmezh That will only work for about 5-10 mins before you will have to do it again

cmezh commented 8 years ago

@camnomis My uptime is 15 minutes now, will look how long it will work.

mmixx commented 8 years ago

Mine is more than an hour now and still working...

febs commented 8 years ago

How do you know if you're flagged or not?

tihiniko commented 8 years ago

I, for one, would love to see if 2Captcha can solve the issue. Just for an hour or two, it's all I need :)

mmixx commented 8 years ago

I just checked my other account and it is now unable to spin forts and no pokemons on sight... I'm guessing it was flagged a few minutes after an hour of using the bot today... But when I logged it in on my phone, I didn't received a warning, only the captcha that showed up after logging in... My main isn't affected of the captcha, coz I didn't used the bot on that account for almost a week now... :)

My guess about the captcha, I think it shows after being online for an hour or two even if you're using the bot or not... Coz I've seen a lot of posts on FB on a PoGo group I'm in that they're asking if everyone was getting a captcha... Some of them haven't used bots or any third party apps...

perpysling2 commented 8 years ago

my second accaunt is at lvl36 and its not banned. bud i get a message that they suspect that i have been using a thiird part software for cheating and they tell me to stop using it. i get this message every time i login

mabey they have to manualy ban detected accaunts. so they will be banned after a while?

anyway if its not getting deleted i will no longer bot this accaunt and rater start a new one when the bot is updated.

avexus commented 8 years ago

@perpysling2 from 36 to 40 is still a long way to go if not botting.

camnomis commented 8 years ago

My dummy account had the warning on each login, I logged into a spare phone today with the genuine app for about 4-5 hours of "real" play and the warning has now gone

pacpac42 commented 8 years ago

@ttpeter can you let us know if you have any updates? are you still botting after the new warnings?

ProZer0 commented 8 years ago

Only 5% of the 0.39 api was cracked, to follow up on the progress join https://discord.pogodev.org

ttpeter commented 8 years ago

@pacpac42 I stopped botting after they blocked completely version 0.35 api calls. Warnings message on all accounts gone too after 1 day. All accounts alive.
