I have been banned on my first account a week ago, i have created another two and tried to be very cautious. Maximum 2h per session and i was making at least 1h break, no levelling over night at all ,no sniping, no teleportation at all i have always remained in the same location (Central park New York and within 200m radius from my starting point ).
One of my new accounts walking speed was set up to walking another to jogging and sadly both have been banned today morning.
I guess making another account is pointless, Niantic won they know exactly who and when is boting. I dont think its my bad luck coz my wife's accounts has been banned as well and she boted much less than i did (to compare we created our account at the same time after first bans and my second ban came when i was level 24 and wifes when she was 21). It seems that it doesnt matter how much u bot and for how long per session if u do bot u will get banned sooner or later. I wish they could make this pokefarmer more reliable like WoW bot, i cold go years without ban if you were sensible about using it and didnt push too much.
I am still waiting for my last original lvl 27 to be banned but hes still alive. I've not tempted fate by moving him to Santamonica pier, I just use him on a crappy tablet at work and home.
I'd like to login to him on my iPhone but I fear that Niantic might have blacklisted my phone by Mac address so I've not used it. I created a new account and logged in to my iPhone and though its only lvl 4 there seems to be no issue is I play as you are supposed to. Still too worried to login with my last high lvl account though.
i am still level 33 on my original account no ban nothing, and let me tell you i botted for like 6 hours each day. and then stopped for a week. i have another account that's 29 and that seems to be fine as well..
I do 24 hours my computer is open for months as soon as the pokefarmer dont stops or gives try again , response things It always goes on and no problem for me.Its about using hack smart.Just choose one location make your radius 1-2kilometers and dont dont change till you get 40.
My first account I botted nearly 8+ hours daily and made it to Level 31. Since it was my first account, I really wasn't concerned about changing locations often. I hopped from New York, Ohio, California, and Texas, one location daily. Also went to Japan once with it. I had like 138 pokemon caught and everything seemed fine, but the day of the banwave, I left the bot running..
I just started a new account and I'm going to try to limit it to 5-6 hours daily, and stick to one location until Level 30. I won't even login to the account on my phone to evolve/delete items, just going to leave it alone and see what happens. Since the game's free, it doesn't really bother me much if I get banned. My main account is level 23 and safe .
Same. I have multiple accounts and one of my originals that I never used the PC for and used my rooted phone with, is still going strong with me using a joystick to play.
I have one account, that I will let bot 24/7 until it stops just to see. I have not logged on my phone with it at all and won't until I hit 40 or I am banned. So far I made it to level 33 from level 1 and no ban *yet*.
As ian12 mentioned above the correct number of hours you can bot safely is 0.
