Personally I think the report system is quite stupid, there r legit players with high lvl like us players wut if they go travelling and take a few gyms in kl?? Bunch of guys report him and he got ban, is that fair??

They should spend that 200 mil they funded for this game and implement some proper anti cheat algorithms to minimise the cheaters. It's a game after all every game has cheaters but the way it is atm is a bloody mess cheaters get ban ask for refund if they bought in game items and bot again so nothing change.

I dun tink there is legit players right now that is lvl28 and above given the spike of exp required on each lvl after lvl20.

I am on leave and using 0 cash walk around 12hrs a day and still stuck at lvl23 only. Some might be higher if they keep using lure and incense + lucky eggs.

Banning botters/hackers also not hard..they can just see ur records. U cant be in klcc for 30mins and nx in ipoh within 10mins right.

Judging by the lack of communications from them I doubt they have some very accurate way of determining a bot or spoof, they will get them self burned in the future just like final fantasy online did when they won't communicate or take user feedback later everyone left and they came out apologise and say they will start over again. Just my opinions since I've played a few games that ended up that way.

I wouldn't worry about bans if you are a legit player.

Botting or spoofing leaves a few red flags in the system.

I believe anybody close to 30 is betting because at where my lvl today 21 to 22 needs like 75k experience which is so slow ...maximum I can get a day also 30k at max and that's with lucky eggs.

So imagine those like lvl 30 and above how to grind so hardcore?

Spoofing is tempting for a location bound player like hospital patients or... people like me. Today I wanted to keluar main pokemon, my dad asked 1001 things.

Take bag, takut snatch thief. The three pokestops near my house are notorious daylight robbery areas. And I'm also restricted to a mall. Can't go anywhere outside the 'safe zone'.

Everyone's so worried about me, and I'm 28 years old. Trying to play Pokemon Go can get a little stressful with overconcerned family members sweat.gif

I bought a case w/ powerbank for my phone, people bring powerbank + phone I bring phone only (a lot more convenient to carry imo)

you should fight gym more or catch more pokemon, then you will feel the need to go to pokestop laugh.gif (been kicking gyms with 1-2k cp with my max 700cp pokemon today), 6 vs 1 then revive + super potion and repeat and rinse laugh.gif

True spoofing is good for bed ridden player like Hospital patients etc or well for underage kids whom parents are worry when they are playing outside.

But sadly its been abused by others for pokemon sniping and botting sweat.gif

Travel in group. Should be fine. Or...

Anyway, that aside I have one of my friends that travel with me with a serious GPS problem. He can never pinpoint his location and his GPS put him in all kinds of different spot so far away from him. Try all kinds of fix and nothing works. Thanks to that, he even receive a short ban for randomly teleport rclxms.gif Sometimes we gave him our phone and have him log in to catch rare Pokemon that we just caught at our current location during our travel. But yeah, spoofing makes thing easier for this kind of stuff.

In the end, he uses a map based spoof app, locked the location and finally he can enjoy playing the game. icon_rolleyes.gif It depends on how you cheat to play the game. First rule, don't ruin it for everyone for your own sake. But forget first rule if you can't even play the game smile.gif

Friend of mine reported these 2 persons to Niantic on Sunday 2am. Sunday evening, I passed by 2 of the locations and they were gone. Replaced with some fairly benign 1k pokemons. Coincidence, gang banged or action taken by Niantic?

Hey, same boat as me.  Installed the game last Sat but no time to play, Sun participated in the SCB Marathon and with family the rest of the day, working 7 days this week (rotating shift), but able to play during lunch and for a while after work.  Haven't spent anything yet, but seriously looking at a bag upgrade.  Kids at school from morning till noon, tuition center till evening, then it's dinner and family time, only able to play using my phone on Friday night for 2 hours.

Wow you're fast, level 20!  I'm just at 15  biggrin.gif

SCB Marathon would be great for hatching eggs! Didn't bring your phone with you? But seriously your schedule looks a lot like mine. Fetch kid, work, fetch kids, eat, watch news, sleep. In between, try to squeeze in some family & entertainment time.

If you're gonna buy something, the bag upgrade is highly recommended. I bought 2 x 50 slots for 400 coins. Pokeballs are so expensive. I think it works out to ~20sen per ball. Literally throwing money away, LOL.

Have you tried doing a lucky egg mass evolve? You'll jump a few levels in 30 mins. More details here and example of my mass evolve that I did a few days ago:

The tha vent said anything specific - but using any 3rd party app to connect is considered violation of TOS

So I just use the manual IV checking sites instead to be safe.
