      I don't think they consider it a problem, though. Regionals always end up being offered worldwide, and the regional events every February feature EVERY Pokemon of that area, including regionals. Long-distance trading would basically give everyone a full Pokedex very quickly. There'd be little reason to play.

    6:46 Actually that was just a cooldown not a ban.
    Depends on how far from your last location is, the cooldown can reach up to 2 hours. The trigger is that you spin a pokestop or catch a pokemon. Since you catch a pokemon from far away at that moment, the cooldown trigger until it catches up to your recent location.

      Well Niantic has now themselves entered into the auto catching business with their Pokémon go plus + devices.
      It is able to auto catch using normal red pokeballs and spin stops, but on top of that it can also act like classic go plus when you want to use great or ultra balls.
      Other than that, there is going to be new unique sleepwear snorlax which is tied to the sleep track feature of the go plus+ device.
      Don't know how it works, that's just what their ad about it said.
      So technically it got a little bit more cray for Niantic to ban people because of auto catcher devices.

    The thing is, you can 100% comply with the rules and still get banned - we've had ban waves that have mistakenly banned both iOS and Xiaomi devices specifically that Niantic have admitted were mistakes, and likely had many more errors from their systems that they've never admitted to. Doesn't inspire any confidence to sink time in to the game when you might just lose your account for no reason. And then, as you say, you find users who cheat for years..!

    A chunk of the bans seem to be a GPS hardware issue with gps refresh times on a lot of phones where they only confirm the location every so often and if the phone is asleep, off, or something that doesn't let it communicate such as airplane mode or some tunnels you have a delay until the next refresh after it loads.

My guy was just standing next to a PokeStop in a cluster spawn of Mons and I just kept spinning the stop, laughing my head off lol! Was not banned, but I eventually restarted the game out of fear I would be 😆
    Edit: I could freely spin the stop, get the items, and catch the Pokemon. I don't know what made me freeze there no matter how far away I got from the PokeStop, but it was the dumbest thing ever lol.

    The not catching and spinning can happen if you travel to fast, so waiting to catch a pokemon can confuse the game. I had it happen a few times on the bike, and when trying to spin in a train or car (not driving myself) it will also fail everything after a while above a speed thresehold. My old iPhone had my character sometimes freak out and running and even that did put me into can't catch modus some times. But with speeding the game also tends to just unload pokemons and stops

You can't take over a single gym anywhere within 5 miles of downtown, where it's obviously the best spot to play, because they all control every gym. It sucks but if you play around here it is what it is. They all spoof as well, none of these people ever leave but will have every Pokémon from all over the world lol.

    They need to bring back the red slashes instead of banning users. If a Pokemon is suspected of being sniped or caught via account sharing, the Pokemon would have a red slash on it and couldn’t be used for any reason. I also heard red slashed Pokemon don’t give candy when they are transferred.

    It's kinda insane that you can get banned for having Pokestop suggestions denied. Sure, there are probably people out there who spam suggestions for places that have no chance at becoming a Pokestop ("hey, this rock here should be a pokestop!"), but there are also people who get their submissions denied for no good reason. I've nominated several places that absolutely should be allowed to be Pokestops and have had them denied.
    Once I had to nominate the same place four times before it was accepted.
    Imagine being banned from PoGo just because some morons deny your Pokestop submissions because they are either too stupid to know what can become Pokestops or just want to mess with people.
    I also think it's kinda hate that there are so many grey zones, even if I do understand that Niantic have them to cover their backs in case of uncertainties.

      @TheRaven This is not about pokestop submissions but nomination reviews. @MYSTIC7 and others, please just read what's in that message, it's about "reviewing the requests".
      Those messages are being sent when someone reviews the nominations incorrectly (not following the niantic guidelines), or to be more precise, when someone reviews nominations differently than majority, doesn't matter whether majority follows the guidelines or not. There's also a rumour that niantic sometimes puts a fake pokestop nomination when the decision of whether to accept it or refuse should be clear, and people get warnings/bans instantly if they do that one wrong. I once got that message too and got extremely angry and disappointed at niantic. Not only because I really tried reviewing pokestop nominations following the guidelines, but also because I felt it's not ok to punish us that way and also because they threatened to ban my pogo account. Like, come on, what the hell, if I'm reviewing nominations incorrectly, ban my wayfarer account, not my pogo account. Also of course no explanation about what did I do wrong (give examples or sth) cuz why bother.

      One place I submitted was denied three times before finally being allowed. So it's not as easy as just following the rules and things will be fine.
      There's people who just go through submissions as fast as they can without actually looking at what's been submitted and deny for no reason.
      Now Wayfarer might have had some change in rules recently, so maybe it's not as bad anymore, but it's certainly not good.

    I've been shadow-banned many times. My wife and I, and our daughter, play quite often when we go out. Parks, lunch, dinner, that kind of thing. Since I'm the one driving the majority of the time that means I will often see something while others are loading in the vehicle and maybe toss the ball or just hold it on the catch screen and then close my phone so I can focus on driving.
    So, so often do I find myself trying to catch pokemon afterwards and they all just run-away. Which is more frustrating that just a ban where at least I'd know and not waste stuff.
    Doesn't seem to happen as much anymore. I'm not sure if that's because they fixed it or because we just don't play as much as we used to. Frankly, this has a lot to do with why.
    Never cheated, never did GPS spoofing, none of that -- but I've probably been shadow banned dozens and dozens of times over the years. Sometimes I'll literally have no clue why, none at all. I did figure out the catching after moving thing but there's been many times where I just have no idea.
    Which it's funny if you think about it -- I probably spend $1-2k a year just on raid passes. Rather, I used to. Banning someone that spends that kind of money is just stupid. Clearly these are automated systems and extremely poorly designed ones. To me, it shows how little care Niantic has for their customers.

Whether they spend money or not, if they break the ToS then they should be banned or at least locked for a duration.

    Over the years I have not seen them do much to enforce the multi-account clause, unless the player was making themselves really visible by using the accounts to harass other players, or they were being really vocal about it online or whatever and someone called them out. IMO that's the least offensive thing someone could do out of the discretions...like a LOT of people had (or still have) alt accounts to actually be able to do raids, get coins for gyms or whatever in remote areas with few to no players. Plus some folks have family members who used to play and got bored of it so they have access to those other accounts. Or any host of reasons really...it's still not weird to show up to a raid and have more than one person have 2-3 devices out.
    I really don't understand what's cheating about it? Yeah you technically have more chances to get rare pokemon, but you still have to spend the time/energy/money to run both at the same time to get to the point of actually having an advantage. And Pokemon can't be traded more than once, so no one can hoard rare stuff on one main account to re-trade to other players. I'm quite certain Niantic has the wording in there so they CAN enforce it if circumstances arise that are totally unusual, but otherwise more accounts means more chances to earn money so I assume that's why they don't actually ban people for that very often.

    I don't really understand PoGo on bans. I think spoofing should definetly get banned when they take down gyms constantly (other stuff I don't care that much). I mean, it's not fair, I have to sit down on a gym, take it down, and praying for no spoofer to take it down confortably from home miles away. Happened to me a while ago that even at 3 a.m I was literally fighting a spoofer (nobody was around, there's no way) for a gym. And the no spoofing players can't keep taking down gyms for ever, making getting 50 Pokecoins practically impossible.
    I actually use 2 accounts on my phone (my secondary always being on my tablet) and I use hotspot cuz sometimes it bugs and teleports me to a few streets away from my home (useful when I can't leave and there is an interesting event). I'm not doing anything wrong and I don't make any players experience worst, I don't use spoofing and I just enjoy the game with my 2 accounts to be able to raid more easily. Weird banning policies from Niantic. I hope I never get banned for that...

      I'm a former spoofer. Haven't done it in a few years. What they probably did was calculate the cool down times for spoofing. For example. If I decide to spoof to Indiana from NYC. So if I spin a poke stop/gym or catch a pokemon in NYC then spoof to Indiana... I can't catch or spin a stop due to a cool down period based on distance. In other words, the distance traveled from the last stop spun or pokemon caught correlates to how long until you can catch or spin again. I've been soft banned a lot. But I've caught my fair share of rares. Like Tropius. Now I can't do it. My old phone broke and the apps I used don't work anymore. So I just log in literally every day since I do long distance commutes to work and back.

    Imo spoofing is actually quite useful if say you live in a super rural area and there aren’t many pokestops if any or very little wild spawns and you don’t have access to a car or you can’t drive so it allows people who want to enjoy the game but can’t because of a terrible design by niantic making people who love in rural areas have very little fun.

    my gps freaks out sometimes and my avatar will tp due to bad cell connection and I'm always scared I'll get banned. I just try to not interact with anything when im teleported.

    I had a second account once, but it was on a second phone. I used the alt account to trade myself pokemon I caught.

    I got banned during the Global Hoenn Tour because my phone was about to die, so I turned it off still in the catch screen and caught it with my phone on charge and got a 24 hour ban.
