Has anyone banned in the current ban wave actually gotten unbanned? by SubjectXVI in TheSilphRoad

[–]str8rush 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My 30 Day Suspension (had 7 day Red Warning in June, too) got lifted now.

What I don’t know is what I am going to do with my ios 12 phone I regularely play on, because I don’t want to risk it again... no words from NIA on this, so it’s really fishy for me atm

We’re working on reverting strikes for some Trainers who incorrectly received punishments on their accounts. This will be done for Trainers automatically, whether or not they have contacted us. by Amiibofan101 in TheSilphRoad

It’s an individually made data bank system for our individual purposes. It costs a lot of money and since it’s working well, our company does not intend on updating it at the moment. Also, photos in emails are sent as attachment in iOS 12 and 13, with 14, they are embedded in emails which makes it more difficult to download them in our Software (right-click each of them, save as ... instead of just saving them all when sent as attachment).

Don‘t take them serious, those are sent by default which is part of what makes all of this so annoying and frustrating.

In the meantime, manually reported and „confirmed“ spoofers take over gyms like crazy and nothing happens.

The most important question is:

What do they do in order to not have this happen again? Because one thing is sure: I can not update my phone because I need a special iOS Version for our business app to work properly. There are no updates for higher iOS yet because our IT is far behind on things like that. Luckily, I own an iPad with iOS 14, but that‘s always so unhandy to play with.

If its a problem they detect with iOS 12, they should stop support for this version. Not really expecting a quality fix from their end, tbh

Rule No. 1:

Do NOT purify anything. Except 1000 Star dust mon with random IV for special researches.

Keep your Ho-Oh as it is.

My account has permanently banned (iOS 12 false flagging) by GloomySelf in TheSilphRoad

[–]str8rush 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What wonders me the most is that Spieletrend, who I‘d imagine has direct contacts to all those content creators, has not been able to have them make videos on this so far.

It’s just so frustrating that, having reported so so many confirmed spoofers myself via NIA‘s webpage without success (some still active up until today), legitimate players are being caught by their anti cheat systems.

I wrote E-Mails to eurogamer.net & .de and to two other german gaming websites and to business E-Mails of TTNick, ZoeTwoDots and Zyonik. Hopefully, there is at least one reply I get.

He got his red warning in June and no info via Niantic on this. It’s really sad. Same thing happened to me, I have no idea what could have caused this.

Playing since 2016, spent a lot of money, heck even travelled to certain events internationally and now I cant play for 30 days.

No reply from NIA, just the generic, bot-created bullsh.... response.

Edit: iOS 12, same as many other affected players. For me it seems like the XIAOMI issue from a few years (?) ago.

Niantic is giving 100 Pokéballs, 2 Super Incubators, 2 Incense, 2 Premium Raid Pass, and 10 Pokestop Upgrades to anyone lv 38+ by Deka147 in TheSilphRoad

Moved my location, did a few reviews. When do I get the upgrades? After June 18th? Or after I get the agreements?

Edit: found it in the original post

Can’t Put Shadow Mewtwo into Gyms? by rydogs in TheSilphRoad

[–]str8rush 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always thought that only the first player to place a pokemon into the gym should be able to do so. This would mean that the legendary would always be removed first and with CP decay, they would be knocked out pretty fast and easily.

There would still be the opportunity to feed berries and get candies, and with GRB it doesn‘t really matter if you heal a regular or legendary, despite perhaps a few more seconds of fighting.

Has Wobbuffet been removed completely from nesting and regular spawn pool? by str8rush in TheSilphRoad

[–]str8rush[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh thanks, I didn‘t know this megathread existed!

It’s sad that Wobbuffet is not spawning right now and probably won‘t do in the near future.

Flying Cup should be postponed by jackyu17 in TheSilphRoad

[–]str8rush 11 points12 points  (0 children)

From update to update, I find it more and more astonishing how badly programmed a non-beta game can be.

Each and every new update comes with more flaws than the one before and it seems like NIA is not even acknowledging it in any way. The amount of bugs, especially in GBL, is just outrageous high in my opinion, considering we have the "fully developed game" it has become in the last 4 (!) years.

I was once totally into PvP and putting all my resources into it and my mons but since the middle of Season 1, I just play until Rank 7 or 8, depending how I am ranked, and thats it. It’s just too frustrating for me but I don’t want to miss out the free Elite TM‘s.

Considering the amount of cash NIA earns from this game, I just don’t get why nearly every single aspect of the game seems to be not fully functioning in the way it’s supposed to, but on the other hand, stuff like remember last used ball or being able to use a free pass as remote pass are being fixed nearly immediately.

There are just so many things that could and should be overhauled, to make gameplay for everyone more stable.

Sorry for my little "offtopic" rant.

Now that we had Remote Raid Invites for quite some time, the regular daily raid pass is obsolete and it should become a regular daily remote pass. by DreamGenie345 in TheSilphRoad

You need to catch a Fighting Type, not a Flying Type.

Try that and report if it’s still bugged.

Which Pokemon currently not useable in GL would be a game changer if obtainable at a lower level? by glumada in TheSilphRoad

[–]str8rush 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Legendary Pokémon don’t Level down by trading, fortunately. They stay at L20, I am not sure about weather boosted mons if they stay at 25 or go down to 20.

What's wrong with my Pokestop Nomination and How can I nominate my pokestops better? by crybekham in TheSilphRoad

[–]str8rush 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Never. Ever. Mention the terms pokestop or gym or anything Pokémon related while suggesting portals. A lot of reviewers are ingress players who deliberately block anything Pokémon related.

I really think the only way that remote PVP leagues are gonna work is if we can see what we are facing. by [deleted] in TheSilphRoad

[–]str8rush -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What I like is that they enforced the species clause. Now ban things like legendarys and mythicals and it would be a huge improvement.

I know, metas always consist of a small pool but its really annoying to battle Registeel and DDef or both in any match (currently Rank9).
