The dashboard-level anti-ban configuration for sessions. Tunes warmup speed, daily message caps, presence simulation, and quiet hours.

Prerequisites

  • Active session.

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Dashboard → Sessions → click session → Anti-ban

    See current settings.

  2. 2

    Confirm warmup is ON

    Days 1-7: 15 → 200 msg/day ramp.

  3. 3

    Set daily cap

    Default 200 once warmup completes; raise on paid plans up to 5000/day with caveats.

  4. 4

    Enable quiet hours

    Default 12am-6am, slower replies, shorter messages, lower presence.

  5. 5

    Enable presence simulation

    Bot toggles online/offline based on time-of-day to simulate human behaviour.

Expected result

Session is maximally protected against fingerprinting.

Can I skip warmup?
