[Mega Thread] Instagram's botting limits (to be updated)

[Finez]

That's insane I thought only expensive proxys can get this many actions without block... currently using free proxys but I'm looking to start buying. What do you recommend that hasn't been fvcked by the abusers yet?

There are a lot of Proxy Providers out there i am using a spammed subnet, its my settings and the accs what makes the difference.

So any proxy should be fine?

Bro.. truth is..no one knows the exact limits of instagram, because ..i also follow 900 to 1200 people every day ,. ..so no one knows exact limits

hello, wich proxy provider you use?

 

[Intexam]

which proxy do you use?

I don't use any proxies. I run that account in my phone only.

Anybody know if uploading 6 pics on a new account is suspicious before doing a VERY low-setting automation afterwards? I have heard you shouldn't post more than 1-3 the first day, but honestly I imagine tons of real people that first install Instagram post a lot at the start.

I ask because it would be way easier to just make a new account, dump in 5-7 pics so the page doesn't look empty to start the bot. Then just ride out a 1-3 pattern every day following.

Since no one else is doing it, I'll take initiative to start sharing the instagram limits within the safe numbers and maybe I will update it personally based on my own observations, mirroring my [current] settings. I'll continue with this if others join in. If I see no interest I'll just ditch it.

The current limits for:

Liking: 100/hour, 450/day, 3000/week (warm up for 2 weeks - 20/hour, 120/day, 1000/week)

• 20-50 likes every 10-20 minutes. 200-400 seconds interval between each action

Commenting (multiple comments, NOT JUST ONE SAME COMMENT): 200/hour, 800/day, 7000/week (warm up for 3-5 weeks - 60/hour, 175/day, 2000/week)

• 40-60 comments every 5-20 minutes, 200-400 seconds interval between each action
• 20-40 comments every 20-40 minutes, 500-700 seconds interval between each action (warm up)

Following: 25/hour, 500/day, 7500/week (warm up for 2-5 weeks - 5/hour, 150/day, 2500/week)

• 5-10 follows every 10-20 minutes, 60-90 seconds interval between each action
• 2-7 follows every 35-50 minutes, 120-360 seconds interval between each action

Unfollowing: 20/hour, 500/day, 7500/week.

• 30-40 unfollows every 50-60 minutes, 2-5 seconds between each action (not too sure, haven't fully tested yet)

Thank you for starting this thread.
I feel like the settings are quite conservative, which is a good thing. Safe growth is always going to be best unless you don't care about bans.

At the moment my settings are as follows:
- Follow 500-600 p/ day
+ Like 2 images per account after following
- Follow 80 - 140 accounts p/ job
- Rest 40 - 60 mins between jobs

I must note that the accounts I am running these settings on are well aged, all over 2 years old.
I can get away with going much harder, but prefer to keep it conservative.

Honestly, I wouldn't run the bot right away. First, start building in images for some time and let the account sit.
I have never tried botting from day 1, so don't take my word on it. Just my opinion.

MP is completely discontinued or old existing users can still use the program? I'm using GMT2 by the way, but as it's super unstable, I'm looking for more options. Please advice a junior

I use GMT2 now. And I usually use shared proxies, I do get a ban from time to time but that could be non-proxy related. And even if it is, it's still profitable over buying expensive ones for only those handful that get banned

How many bans do you get? What is the rate of banned accounts?

I like your settings. What are your comment limits? I have 70-120users with 145second interval, 20-50minute interval per job.. I get nerfed on likes frequently

 

[Edvard Benk]

UPDATE: comment + like function gets nerfed after a day. Trying a more conservative approach.

New settings: Comment + Like (combined function) - 200/hour, 500/day, 7500/week

60-100 actions per operation, 170-240 seconds between each L+C action, 30-50 minutes interval.

 

[surajboss]

update: the newest L+C function has successfully passed a day of testing without a ban on any of the accounts.

 

[surajboss]

Doing From 2015 .... Still working in 2017 end

if im not mistaken, you get banned for spamming the follow feature, even on the official instagram app

 

[izkech]

@surajboss The purpose of proxies is running load of account at same time, i think you are running one account at time, or i m mistaken?

 

[Edvard Benk]

UPDATE: Follow/Unfollow must be taken slow.

Given that I'm a total noob, I completely forgot that F/U must be taken with a slight pause in between, so as soon as I finished unfollowing, I turned on the follow module... BAD MISTAKE

Wait at least a day after the unfollow function, and then take it slowly once again

 

[krt1337]

You all guys talking about your limits, but nobody talking how many days/months/years you use your settings on each account..

 

[surajboss]

@surajboss The purpose of proxies is running load of account at same time, i think you are running one account at time, or i m mistaken?

yes bro,, one account at a time, or you can say that one account on one app,, ,, just clone insta app , and use 2 different account in official app
