[HELP] Can't like any photos on Instagram

i advise you guys to not try anything on your own account, someone tell me comment/follow settings please!
 
For comments I'm using 30 comments an hour, 90s delay.
 
Hey guys!

Here are the news:

My bro has been trying on his account 40sec delay (no limit per hour nor max) and it's been running smoothly for more than 30h now. He also got comments ON, 55 per hour.

As for me i tried 17-19sec delay + 140 max per hour. And comments 55 per hour with 19-20 sec delay. No problem so far but i started this config last night so I'll only know tonite if it works.
I know there shouldnt be any pb with comments, i put some nice ones, the kind that wont get you any trouble + i've been commenting everytime i got 24h banned.

i guess there's an hour limit only that we need to respect, and no daily one?
I asked my bro to try 150 per hour, i want to find per hour where it is now. If anyone else's up to it, keep us posted!
 
Are you using mobile to like those photos? If so, sometimes it really happens that the photo you like will automatically unlike on its own.
 
If your account was created a while ago you will just get a temporary hold from liking pictures, not account getting deleted. Whoever wants Instaget PM ME, i will sell it to you :-) "YES SELL NOT FREE"

I have been running instaget with 45-48 second delays for about 18 hours and it's still up and running. I previously got a 24 hour ban, but with this delay it seems to be working fine. I might lower it to 40 seconds (those 5 seconds add up!) but I want to make sure it's ok before I get another ban.

I have the same delay settings and no issues so far.
 
I've been doing one-time batches (my clients personal accounts follow their business accounts and they caught my bot liking an inappropriate photo before). I did 4 x 250 like batches on Monday (after getting like-banned on Sunday). 4 went okay, 1000 a day. Then I did 5 x 250 batches on Tuesday and no ban. Wednesday I did 6 x 250 batches and no ban. Think I'm going to stay around there. My batches take about 5 min to run and I do it every hour I'm at my comp. Wish I could run my bot 24 hours though. Seems like there's a daily limit as well as an hour limit.
Wish I knew exact limit numbers though!! hahaha.

Yea it sucks right now I'm stuck at like 100 likes an hour and it's killing me! Occasionally I jump in and like some pictures manually, but I want to be certain of the hourly limit before I get banned again.
 
I see a good opportunity for a programmer to step in and create a bad ass bot that will take care of all this crap...
 
I was banned for liking for the third time
This time I found this was really unexpected. I created a macro with the followings settings:

like -> 17 pictures delay of 2-4 seconds.
Then wait 300 seconds. Repeat 5 times
after cycle 5 wait 40 minutes
Repeat

It ran for about 5 hours, and I certainly didnt pass the limit for likes, I also wasnt using a bot so its not just a bot thing. Oh hell. It seems so random to me

Ive started using auto comment with instaget. Can anyone be banned for overcommenting (using the 55/hour)?
 
Just an update from my personal experience.

I've had trouble the last week or so with instagram (same troubles you guys are experiencing) and I had always kept my limits to 12-15 second delays, 250 max per hour and 3500 per day (took about 18 hrs to finish and then I'd restart everyday).

I kept upping the delay in order to try and avoid getting blocked. Last night I set it to 40-47 second delay with a max like per hour of 130. So far the bot has been running since 5pm yesterday (it's 12pm here the next day) and has yet to hit a block. It's liked around 1500 photos thus far. Painfully slow but at least I haven't gotten blocked.
 
Hey guys,

So!
I got 24h banned with my setting of 17-19 sec delay + 140 hour limit at 1750 pictures. Is this the daily limit ?? I put the extra 50 to the 1700 to see and as some others experienced, the limit is around 1700...

However, my brother has been running on his account the 40-42 sec delay no limit config for the past 3 days now, and no ban.
When you're on a 40sec basis it's 2160 likes / day...

I'm kinda starting to think that there's a daily limit that can't be exceeded in a certain amount of time. I mean, you can't get to 1700 in 12 hours (140 likes per hour, 1700/140). But you can like more if you're taking more time. Am I making myself clear?

As the 40sec delay seems to be safe, I'll try lowering to 35 now, that's roughly 103 likes per hour, which makes me get to 1700 in 16,5 hours. (vs 18,8hours with 40sec delay)
Hope this will work ! If someone is up to try 36/37/38/39 sec no limit config we'll be able to know faster the perfect delay. We're getting closer!

Interesting. That makes more sense. They give you more likes per day, if your like pattern is like a human. But if you like pattern is like a bot, they give less likes per day. Great way to weed out bots.

So, this is weird, but I manage an account that has a deep cultural meaning, so I spend a lot of time manually liking people within that culture. It's actually more efficient for me to like manual photos and get follow backs than to use a bot that likes random photos that aren't related to the culture. I've tried both. So last night I'm manually liking a shitload of photos because I have a follow goal number for Sunday. I don't count each photo, but kinda give myself an estimate of photos that I've liked based on time. I noticed that when I got about 2-3 hours into liking photos, IG started making me quadruple tap photos to like them. I was doing it on my phone, then thought it was weird so I tried on my tablet, same thing. Then tried on gramfeed and the same. I thought I was going crazy. But it was consistently making me 4 tap each photo to like it (or 2 tap the like square).
I was probably going over 1,000 manual photos at that point. It was really weird. Went to sleep, woke up and it was back to normal (9 hours later).
Maybe I'm crazy.
 
To clarify, I was probably about 4 hours in, which is about 1,000 photos. If I get on some good cultural hashtags. Using this technique, I get about 1 follow back per 20 likes (very cultural, people feel obliged to follow back). And to clarify further, IG was still letting me like photos, but I had to 4x tap. The photos remained liked the next day and on.

Not using any proxy and for sure my timing was random (I was watching tv, used the bathroom, searched locations and various hashtags, walked the dog, answered email, etc).

I was running a 41-43 second delay for 3 days (about 13-14 hours a day) and it was fine until today, I checked and it seems like I can't like for the moment. I have to see how long the ban is for, it worked fine for a few days but not sure why now it's not letting me like pictures, kind of sucks.
 
Same is happening to me, I am using instaflow and bot looks like its working but when you click the pic to see if you liked it, it unlikes itself. I tried going on my phone and liking as well but it automatically unlocks. I wish damn luigi from instaget would make a come back or something
