So botting successfully is basically impossible right?

Exactly anyone that has botted will get banned simply put anyone saying otherwise has a new account or they have not got around to you yet but trust me they will eventually.

 

LOL It's about the data that Niantic gets from Bot that is different from phone app that is getting people banned. So bots are detected not just PF, probably all bots at this moment and including emulators. So there is no safe play using the bot at this moment. Just wait for the ban which will come soon lol.

 

Then you are stupid.

 

yea man, check my other comments , you'll be banned once you're reported, no matter you're legit or not..some kids just can't accept defeat! that's how i ended up in botting.. my legit was banned after i took a lvl 4 gym that time..pogo launched in australia (my place) first on the 7thJuly2016, that time i downloaded from play store, it was only written 100 (yup, it's crazy) downloads, and i think i didn't go to the news, i think i was the first guy who found out the evolution frenzy via lucky eggs on the 8thJuly2016, on 10th i found out that i can login into 2 diff devices and do evolution frenzy at the same time lolz..well, those were histories. lesson learnt = you'll be banned no matter what! if just catching pokemons and not defeating gym, what's the purpose of leveling? sigh..

 

fkn hell, first time in a week i use the bot, it does not work and i get banned,,, Oh well...

 

Nah, think the guy is right.
I've tried 5 accounts. My last account reached level 25, just banned this morning. I kept my botting limit under 8 hrs a day, with less than 100 000 exp a day and used the poke timer to keep under 1200 spins/700 pokemon caught each day just incase. I only botted in my own neighbourhood with Cyber ghost premium set to my location as well, just incase my personal ip was recognized. I only used jogging speed, I never teleported and only farmed around my city. I also never used the pokefarm UI, and when I did login to my phone I waited 30 mins prior to shutting the bot down. Only to collect awards and level up achievements each level. I never fucked up once, not even so much as one soft ban. I had my bot shut off all night only to wake up to the ban hammer this morning.
Edit* Never once trained or placed pokemon in a gym either.

Niantic detects pokefarm 100%
There is some thing that needs to be rewritten in the code. Something is screaming 'I am a Bot' and Niantic hears it.
At least in a sense that Pokefarm isn't sending all the data Niantic is reqesting and or looking for. Such as....

Mobile device usage statistics
APK encrypted signatures
Mobile Data Strength/Weakness
Wifi Data Strength/Weakness
Regional IP locale
GPS Float with Acceleration/Deceleration
GPS Altitude
Battery Discharge, Recharge Rates
Dynamic Gameplay
Accelerometer Actions
Mobile Device Usage Statistics
The SU Binary
System level GPS Spoof
Side loaded APK's

Everything has to constantly fluctuate, signal strenght, walking speed, battery usage and any other statistic Niantic requests cannot remain the same from level 1 to 40.

 

The way this bot throw the ball, its either Nice, Great and Excellent. No normal throw at all.

 

PF Isn't detectable, however the API? Communications are detectable, and won't send the correct information back to server, thus flagging your account.
Ran two accounts in sensible situations - Home town, walking speed, 100m radius, camped lured spots 6-10 hours daily, banned at 20-23. Ran another two accounts, 50KM speed, 1000m radius, 1 hour - 3 hours daily, still active and kicking.

 

We need to wait for another API eventually this will save us

 

Botting is having a hard time.

 

OMG! my account for 2 weeks has been banned!!! Yah i think there is something that this shitty compamy is distinguishing if your account is legit the whole time... as long as yoi logged in with PF time will come and you will receive the hammer of thor!!
