Banned Issue

[kevinhur99]

Hey, I tried out the API a while back, and when I tested the code by trying to smile one post, my phone got banned from iFunny. The code was similar to the sample code you gave me, except it was just for one post. I got flagged almost immediately.

I want to try using the API again, but obviously don't want to replicate that same issue. Is there a way I can avoid getting banned again?

I dont think the developers of this API wrapper can help with that. That's iFunny banning you, they can't intervene with iFunny's choices.

I was more so curious if anyone else encountered this issue since I feel I used the API correctly.

And if I didn't, then what potential things did I do to get flagged and banned?

A user-agent isn't defined anywhere so as far as i can tell, it's going to default to the client's actual user agent. If your user agent is a windows machine, you're only supposed to be able to use the site. I can't confirm this is why, but i'm guessing manually changing the user agent might fix this
