What we need to be aware is that use of ANY third party software is in violation of ToS.

https://www.pgnexus.gg/

This site seems to be very popular here and this is also likely to be in violation of ToS as it accesses Niantic's servers to pull data from them.

There are players who use similar 3rd party site like PokeAdvisor already getting permabanned because of this.

This kind of website is not harmful, I'm sure they won't ban you easily because of it. Those who got banned from here probably a botter themselves.

The experience curve after lv 25 is just insane and as of now I think the game is really unbalanced. Imagine spending 50+ pokeball to catch 2kCP charizard and 1 pokeball forr 10CP pidgey yet both give only 100XP. They should add incentives for actually catching 2nd and 3rd tier evolutions, like more XP.

Erm as you level through, pokeball is almsot nonexistent. At least to me. I drop all my poke and aim only for greatball and ultraball.

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

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?

Its not necessarily only about exp gain. I believe the number of pokemon caught in a day matters too. If they have a limit of how much pokemon you can catch in a day then they can easily limit or ban your account if you exceeded those number.

It was fun during early stage. Prior to lvl 17. Catch those new pokemon. After that no more. Heard android can use joystick that one seem better than snipe since you can walk around and throw ball.

It still fun to me. Set a date with your team, go out and hunting. Heck, I even saw a lot of spoofer at the places I go and they still go out and hunting. Don't blame the game for not being fun to only start cheating. If you want to cheat, just cheat.

This game is meant for you to explore outside anyway. Most people don't like exploring for a long time, then things get repetitive, sucking out the fun and they said they lost the fun. They join because of the hype and we all know that won't last.

Seriously, this is such a simple game. It gets boring. But nowadays games is not like in the past. We can get updates and patch real quick. Game content can be added and the hype will start again.

Which is why, if you are bored now I suggest you to quit for now and not cheat. Come back when the game have a new content.

If you cheat because its not longer fun, I'm sorry. I only see that as excuses to cheat. You can just cheat without giving out excuses you know.
