Help/Support Fate of Pokemon Go bots?

nbolls · August 12, 2016

Woke up this morning to an unfortunate sight... Haxton is discontinued, Necro pulled the plug due to possible legal action, I'm sure other bots have done the same I just chose not to dig deeper. This is not my first rodeo with a game creator threatening legal action against bot developers. A game you might not be familiar with, Evony, had a similar fate to bot creators. It ended with lawsuits from $300,000 to $800,000. It is no wonder why projects are being scrapped and people are scared for their lives LITERALLY. But bots on Evony were able to keep going and thrive, and the game creator eventually just gave up. Will this happen with Pokemon Go? Will bots continue to break the ToS triggering a Niantic response which is said to "kill all bots" but then it ends up some genius created a work around and bots are okay again? How long will this cycle ensue? Or is this it? Have we reached the end of Pokemon Go bots? Let me know what you think, or if you have an answer to this question.

Some bots will discontinue, others will start. It'll never end until Niantic actually blocks the bots from functionining. Legal actions isn't a permanent solution.

"Questions or problems? Post them here and we'll help you out!" I do believe that had a few questions in there? Could be wrong but I consider that asking for definite answers not necessarily staring a discussion on bots

You can't take legal actions/sue people unless you know who they are, or if they live in a different country.

Bots will come back infact prob Haxton and Necro with a new identity.

Even though necro was discontinued, it still works just fine. Check reddit in the pokemon go botting section, there are links to working versions of NecroBot. Im running an instance now with no issues, sniping like crazy and have a high speed set.
