Hello Guys, I have/had 3 accounts. My first account started botting aug 1st. Full time, full speed. I had it always in toronto which is about 4 hours by car to my house. I never teleported. When the first ban post came up on the threads I stopped botting that account, made a new one and started running it exactly the same way. Ive been using my first account on my phone playing regularly up until about a week ago, probably 3 weeks to 1month after it stopped botting. It was about level 33 if I recall. It was banned. My 2nd account that I made, ran strong all the way up to level 30, no issues. Then my gf logged into that account by mistake on my phone while it was running and i was banned 2 hours later. I now have a 3rd account running full steam without issue... yet. I just thought it was interesting that I stopped botting for so long and was banned, obviously they are flagging accounts. I have done alot of botting in alot of different games, so I am doing my best to share my experience. Thanks, Kevin
Wow you doesn't found anything new and interesting.. There were alot of people that stopped botting for 1-2 weeks and were banned, it's normal.. all know about those flagging account thing.. So this post is rather useless. No mather if you stop botting and play on your phone.. you won't vanish bot logs that way so don't even waste your time
Yeah, Niantic tracks a ton of information on each account from day 1. For example, the first wave of botters used to get up to 200k+ exp an hour so it's pretty easy for Niantic to run a query that auto-bans everyone over a certain threshold. That's just one stat/example, but it's pretty easy for them to see who's human and who's artificial. Now, bot developers realize we need to tone it down to stay under the radar but it appears Niantic still has a way to detect bots very easily (something to do with the API, but I don't know much about that).
