Some tidbits from the GOSO website changelog:

This was one of the biggest updates Instagram have done this year. I know other companies in this industry that have been hit so hard, that they went out of business.

If you have received the Instagram popup 'We’re Removing Inauthentic Likes and Follows', You need to stop automating your account with Telegram bots, Fuelgram, Jarvee or others. You are on Instagrams radar as they know you are using these services. Stop using them until they have fixed the issues, change your password and log out of all devices. We are hearing a lot of Instagrammers who have lost their Instagram accounts because of this.

Instagram released another update. This targeted all accounts that like. We are in the process of moving all of the 1000's of accounts over to 4g proxies, which will solve the issues. However, this is a manual job and we are working through them.


They have around 8000 clients so they have a very big universe to test things and view all the big problemas that are happening.

It seems that IG is agressively updating the algorithm and improving it for bot detection, fake likes and shady behavior every couple of days, that´s why we can´t know the extend of this issue yet and I think the best thing is to stop all automation use and wait.

Please colaborate with more info if you have it.

Suddenly stopping any automation will make you 100 times more suspicious especially when you can't do it manually because you have 100 accounts.
Nobody knows anything, that's the truth. People are just trying to be Mystic Mac and predict these things.

Absolutely true !
 
no one know anything lmao, even normal users seem to not be able to follow like they used to.
instagram without the ability to follow a lot of people daily would soon become like facebook and it would lose its touch over the years.
 
They are getting more and more agressive with proxies users no matter human or bot.

How can you keep using automation now? Even users who are not using this kind of tools are getting blocked.

I feel nobody knows nothing. Different People are guessing different stuff daily. Stay calm, Everything will be fine soon
 
If you get the error you can make a few decisions:
a) decreasing the settings
b) rest acc for a few days and decrease the settings
c) completely stop botting (which I don't think anyone will do, lol.)
 
90% of my accounts were blocked this week and last week, but block has passed now and they are all running 100%. People have been botting for years so...

My accounts effected have been since the 4th. Hopefully this passes soon. I think instagram did a update on the API and we just need to wait for updates on the bots .
 
60% of the web is bot traffic. On Instagram the percentage is likely to be higher. If Instagram killed all the bots its activity would fall a lot. Which would kill the rates they could charge for ads - that's where they get their money.

If you wonder why they don't kill all those accounts that spew out fake likes and which are fake followers: it would reduce the number of Instagram users.

There is a mix of real world politics and reigning in the extremes.

If you create an account that automatically scrapes content from other account or specific sites, and automate everything else, you are a target.

But if you just automate follow/unfollow and a certain number of likes but post original content you are creating positive traffic - that's what Instagram wants.

Have you ever wondered why the number of automatic like actions is only half of the number of the follows and unfollows? Because follows and unfollows create curiosity, and that creates traffic and activity. And if it's done by an account that creates original and good content, Instagram would be nuts to close those down.

Real world politics. Try on Instagram's shoes: they want good content, a lot of activity, and high usage numbers. Anything that provides that is OK, anything that threatens that will be shut down (particularly those content-less, fully-botted zombie accounts)
 
Hi! Unfortunately, I don't have good news. Let's be pragmatic and analytic.

I am running 250+ Instagram accounts on my own BOT & PROXY solution and NONE of them get blocked or received the announcement from Instagram that you have shared your password...

I am doing < 200 / 300 interactions/day with time delay and sleep mode.

I have attached the statistics for a Young Account because I know the young ones are much more sensitive to like/follow block.

In my opinion, the Follow block that you are facing right now may be caused by:

1. Interactions over 6000k / 30 days

2. Jarvee / GM2 / FL leave footprints and for Instagram is easy to track/block them.

"Next level" is going to be the announcement that you have shared your credentials with an application, is going to disable those accounts that will keep on automating.

I have 100% Real Informations that this is already happening on some Instagram accounts that have been received the 2 types of announcement...

So, let's be realistic about this problem. Things are happening, open your eyes!

Automation won't be easy and cheap in the future.

It will be a combination between good quality software that isn't available for the open market, TOP QUALITY PROXY & good quality content (for big follow back ratio).

No more 600+ interactions/day because this is SPAM, no more SPAM DM's (I have certain info that accounts are disabled also for DM Spam), no more "AWESOME PICTURE" comment.

Try to understand that the game has changed, the rules have changed and we need to adapt to the new ones!

We can't be pragmatic and analytic when we don't know anything. There are accounts that still follow with >400-500/day and have no problems while others get blocked for following from their own manual 7yr old account.

There are people that have no problems on ipv4/6 and others get blocked on $200 4g proxy.

There are so many variables and cases people bring daily we can't be certain of anything so far except for the fact that waiting is the best thing we can do right now :)
 
I am using FL and getting a lot of blocks... I have been using FL for a long time and now i started to feel like that the BOT is not as effective as it was before.

I use extremely low settings and still get blocked time to time. Just an example:

I am using a VPN and one of my accounts has 10k and the other one 33k followers and both of them are fairly old (4+ yo)
Today i switched on the FL after a day rest and wanted to try out the lowest settings ever just to give it time and slowly increase the amount every day.

Well after 2 hours (15 follows / 12 unfollows / 20likes) i got blocked for a whole week although these settings are the lowest ones as far as i know.

Do you have any suggestions what i should do or how should i set up the FL to avoid get blocked again?

Should i just change to GMT2 or both of the softwares are going to do the same?

Thanks a lot!

I wouldn't use VPN bro, those IP's are flagged as hell. Need 4g mobile proxies (and VPS if you can't leave your PC running)

I also start with 5-10 follows a day, increasing by 20 each day until 200

Not sure how seriously I can take things coming from Goso. They sell low end likes from a panel as "Powerlikes" for $30-150 per month. I tried them out and it's no different than what you pay $3-5 per 1000 on the major panels.

Things are definitely changing, and at a very fast rate as everyone is scrambling to keep their services up and running.

Thanks for your answer!

I am using the WINDSCRIBE because i just wanted to check if my home ip is flagged or not but after trying it out my account got blocked despite the VPN..

VPS i wouldnt need because i bought a crappy old Latitude which runs 0/24 :)

How much time should i leave between two actions?
In FL the automatiantion time and the time between likes - follows - unfollows.
Right now i have 180 sec between two actions and also 2 mins between the automatiation.

My most important question is: is Followliker already dead and i should change to something else or it is just my bad not giving it enough time? I mean an account with 33k and 10k shouldnt get any blocks for following 50account am i wrong?

I am more than glad to share my current settings since i am blocked for a whole week and i dont want to start off the next week with a wrong settings. Would it be possible that you have a look on it and let me know if i did something wrong or it is just an issue from the side of FL.

Once more thanks for the reply.

Fuck goso I wasted like 600$ with them . They don't deserve it .

I think instagram is just trying to fix phishing , political shit , and low quality panels .A few private panels that are not dirt cheap work fine .

They know they can't take out all the accounts posting good content or people will get pissed off any leave.

100% agree. I'm running a bunch of accounts and have no issues whatsoever.
