Niantic Wrongly Gives Pokemon GO Player A 24 Hour Ban

We knew that Niantic was banning Pokemon GO players who were known to be cheating. Now, one trainer has received a ban despite playing legitimately. Jimmy Derocher was streaming his attempt to gain 1 million XP in 24 hours, when he suddenly found himself unable to catch more Pokemon. Despite Derocher not breaking any rules, Niantic’s anti-cheating measures believed he was boosting his level illegally. While he was still able to play the game, every wild Pokemon he encountered would instantly flee. The error was likely caused by Jimmy gaining more XP than Niantic thought was possible in such a short time. Derocher explains it well in his interview with Kotaku. “Niantic Labs recently implemented an anti-botting policy becoming more well-known to players as a ‘soft-ban. More or less, the policy is a 24 hour ‘cheating prevention’ tool which stops you from getting more XP than should be possible” What are your thoughts on Niantic doing this ? They really need to get this sorted out. Seems like it’s always something with Niantic these days.
