and no catching pokemons

This is just a security feature the DEVs added.

Every time it detects a Pokemon fleeing it will flag you. After repeated flags in a unknown time frame it will cut you off to probably keep you from getting perm banned.

Is this definitely confirmed as PF's Devs security feature? If so thank you for the information much appreciated

P.S. > I would really consider lowering your ultra ball CP condition to like 850-900 > (only my opinion I guess, but would get less break outs)

 

[ffantasy87]

@drakom, yes this is the new safety feature added since version 101

 

[smiley4]

When will it be safe to use the poke bot again.

 

[twosee]

Still safe ??

 

[gianluca866]

always safe for who use brain ..

 

[ammar taha]

can your add hatching egg feature to the bot thank you

 

[The Hybrid]

@drakom, yes this is the new safety feature added since version 101

What causes this to kick in then? I've been in the SAME SPOT for THREE DAYS farming Dratini and now since this update, The bot does absolutely nothing... three pokemon flee and then the bot gives "Restricted response from game server. Please try again in 12 hours." So essentially I have a bot that I've paid for that is unusable to me for no reason... I haven't been teleporting around or anything...

 

[ffantasy87]

@hybrid: if you keep getting flee pokemon it could mean that your account is under soft banned. The bot uses flee count as an indicator for "restricted response". Once this count hits a threshold, the bot will stop. Just wait till the soft ban is lifted.

It seems to give two warnings before blocking 12 hours, if the bot disconnected in the first warning , the problem would end

@hybrid: if you keep getting flee pokemon it could mean that your account is under soft banned. The bot uses flee count as an indicator for "restricted response". Once this count hits a threshold, the bot will stop. Just wait till the soft ban is lifted.

Nope not softbanned... I checked... I have a different program that goes to a pokestop to lift softbans. It went, hit the pokestop, and got xp and items... This started SUDDENLY... I'm not using multiple bots... I'm not teleporting... I'm not using pokesniper... I've been farming Pier 39 for 3 days straight 12 hours on 4 hours off... I've done literally NOTHING to warrant a softban... to me this seems more like a malfunction with the pokefarmer software and I'd like an official dev reply if possible as to what are the reasons or instances that causes this to trigger...

 

[The Hybrid]

If you're soft banned, go outside and spin/leave/repeat the closest pokestop until you receive items.

If you bot at 21kmh for 7 days straight whilst playing on your phone at the same time, yes you'll get banned for being a Matt Damon. Instead choose walking speed and turn the app off every 4 hours to break. But then again what do you guys expect as you're willingly breaking ToS? Take it on the chin, it's not buddyauths problem, it's yours.

Did you bother even reading my post? lol 3 days... of 12 hours on 4 hours off... I know for a fact I'm NOT softbanned as I have a separate program that tells me if I am or not. And since I didn't mention it, no I'm not playing on my phone at the same time either...

 

[Drakom]

Thank you , . I also thought it worth mentioning a few minor things I have witnessed while running the bot......... In a few of cases Poke farmer seems to lose track of lured stops.. I sit in-between three lured stops, once it catches something it tends to wander away to loot other stops Lures turn to un-lured (set at walking speed). One of these lures I have placed myself and it didn't seem to register that the Pokestop was lured for more then 5-7 (should stay 'Lured pokestop' for at least 30mins, obvs.. ) . I also noted that while 'Stay near lured stops..' function is active, it still seems to be a hit and miss, as I have witnessed the bot move away from a 'Lured stop' in favor of looting a 'Non-Lured stop' ..

I just thought I would mention the above in-case any others have witnessed similar issues..

 

[zcryd]

I think it would be nice if your character stayes in a certain zone and go around on this zone (maybe 200m from the start) to catch pokemons and loot pokestops. So you can move with your phone to the zone, leave there the bot and so on, avoiding any minimum case of ban.

 

[Thang781]

I wasn't talking to you, I was suggesting to everyone.

suggesting bullshit, while not reading everyones issues sure will help a lot. you didn't even bother reading the new issue EVERYONE is having, but took the time to put down your fking bullshit. thx.

 

[Luiggio666]

Exist already permaban?

 

[zcryd]

yes

 

[Dosenbeer]

yes

Stop this! There is no evidence!

 

[Sparkles]

Am I reading this wrong? That sounds correct. as CP10 is between 1 and 500. It should use a Pokeball for that.

Basically, I have it set to use CP based strategy and I want it only use ultraballs for anything above 600CP. That didn't work. It would use ultraballs on things like 10CP pokemon even though the setting is 600CP minimum. Now, after noticing that I'm low on ultraballs, I've set it to 0. This is supposed to make it not use that specific ball at all. Unfortunately, it seems to continue to use it and I have no clue why. I've downloaded 1.0.102 separately, hopefully a fresh download copy will work properly.

Edit: Fresh downloaded copy did not fix the problem.
Edit2: Reverted back to 1.0.89 when it actually worked.
