Botting safely

[M3th0s]

I still don't see why the elephant in the room has not been addressed.
I see a lot of people with a lot of suggestions as to why bans are occurring, but there's one important matter that keeps being missed.
PokeFarmer bots in straight lines. You've all seen it, it goes from point A-B in straight line, going through houses, streets, etc. That is obviously not human behaviour. So until there's a way for PokeFarmer to be able to stick to road layouts, I'm afraid the bans will continue.

It lacks a lot of security features, that free bots unfortunately already have.

They are slowly being added I guess, but if you think Niantic is not paying attention to geolocation and silly moving behaviours, then you'll get banned. At this point in time, PokeFarmer is not safe at all.

I think build 105 and on is safe with Niantic's current rules.

Look in requests if you want a list of shit that is way worse than walking in a straight line. Device ID is my hot one. With that said, I think Niantic currently has there hands full with what they have decided to ban, (legit players caught up in it). Therefore imo, build 105+ is safe for now.

HatchingEgg said yesterday, that some devices don't even send deviceid and therefore Niantic can not ban based on that.

O thank you, I should start following HatchingEgg more then.

Hackemon is some kind of bot that Wall Along roade etc never Tryed it but Will today. Tbh since they also ban accounts that aint online their must be some kind of coding problem

i've tried it on a lvl16 account, banned after 1 hour of botting.
Tested again on another account, it survived 12hours, then get banned on that too.

i've made 3 new account with pokefarmer, playing on 8Hours cycle ( 8-16 Acc 1, near my workplace - lvl 19. 16-24 Acc 2, on an island far away from home but always italy, lvl 21, 24-till bot autoquit for my saftey Milan, parco sempione, lvl 23, got 400charmander candy (not a fucking one over 65 IV) )

That's what i'm doing in the past 3D, and it seems it's working. It's slow to exp and to collect stardust, all the bot have different setup (One is running only 50km/h, one only walk, one use the Bicycle).
No EggHatching.

The only thing i'm sure is that snipe (With software or doing it manualy) is like having a red fucking arrow on the account, got 2 acc 27+ banned after 12h.

My 2 cents

I don't really know if the herusitic point is that important because on a gras field you are also going through the grass. also got banned with other bots. more important is the IP, single-botting, max. pokestops/pokemons per day and playing time in a row.

Did the same and works for me to. Which walking speed? 3,6 or running? how many hours in a row?

I do the same with an runtime of ~4hrs a day with jogging speed. Day 3, accounts still fine.
