Potentially bannable issue: incubators

[OldSchoolBotter]

I just started using the bot and let it run for a couple of hours in sputs.

I noticed that the bot DOES use incubators, as in puts the eggs in them, but it DOES NOT manage to click the egg hatch window.

So, what happens is the bot runs around for hours "with the Ohhh! window open" while managing to play the game fine.

I logged in with a phone between spurts and monitored the progress. Eggs went from 1.6 to 2.0 after running what I'm guessing was about 1.5 km, and immediately appeared for me to confirm upon login.

Worse than seeing an egg while playing and doing nothing, when you log in with a hatched egg the only thing you can do is confirm it / claim the pokemon and yet the bot will continue playing with no regard for that.

Another issue I've noticed is the speed at which it can log in and start catching pokemon. I have a nexus 4 and an iphone 6s, and neither of them do much of anything between logging in and receiving/populating the data into the app. There is a fairly lengthy delay between account information accepted, game loaded, and pokemon populated and catchable.

I'm quite concerned that the account I created is already doomed.

Every account botted with pokefarmer or any other bots are doomed. The reason no one is getting banned yet for 2 weeks now is because Niantic is not doing so, not because people bot "safely".
I run my bot accounts with the most unsafe settings and still running after the last ban wave. I use my bot accounts and battle gyms around me then put my non-bot accounts to collect the coins, that's the only use of the bot accounts.

Botting doesnt get you banned. its how you bot that gets you banned.

From the testing I have done, even if you get accounts flagged, you only seem to get banned if you have Pokemon from more than one country or US state.

Interesting. Did you email Niantic support with a plea? Curious to know what options exists if/when my account gets banned
