As people is doing spam and pissing me off. I wont be updating this API anymore!

I'll be updating this in private and i'll only release the fixes and updates to my own and honest people in a private repository.

I wont answer questions anymore. Im really sorry about this but i cant support this if people use it as a spam tool.

Regards.

@thiagosantos everybody is abusing this ...
Dammit whatsapp start blocking Ranges of IP's just due to high abuse it came from there.

@thiagosantos
Copy link

@TruthEdge Certainly!
I was not thinking about abuse for this blocked ranges.

WhatApp already blocked the number if you send more than X messages for non double-side synced contacts.
To delivery mass spam you should have no less than a thousand of fresh numbers, and to be "more" effectively you also should a thounsand of IPs.

I dont know if there are someone with a real interesting on doing this, is to much work.

Yes, actually some people are only interested in doing spam with this API, and im done with that.

Im posting updates in my private repository (not public releases, only honest people). Hope that stop spammers

I'll keep with the updates for my own. Maybe if circunstances changes i'll push here some update eventually, but not more help/support to spammers

Oh, no @mgp25 :/
But I undestand you too. Right now that I'm starting to really learn this API I would try to create a multiplataform app to use simultaneously in smartphones, desktop (W8) and web.
If you add me to your repository, I would be grateful, but if not, thanks for what you did.

@ExpressArab

  • 1º: This is not my API, is an API created by the users for the user, whole community.
  • 2º: If we are not releasing more updates it is not because i dont want to. I really want to share all the updates, fixes to you people, but i dont want you to use it wrong, to spam people and make WhatsApp platform only for commercial.
  • 3º: Oks, go ahead. xD

@TruthEdge

@ExpressArab , So you don't need the API , what the fuck you are doing here, and why you are upset when mgp said he's not going to support spammers like you ?

@crashforce

People I have a problem when trying to send pictures:

I can send some images and not others ..
There is a pattern of images that have to follow to be able to send ?

@mgp25 all of us are made that API be stable and help ourselves to solve problems and errors dont tell that if u wanna make your own its up to u but we still work together to upgrade that api to a higher level we think in the new school way (Open source) if u dont like this school go and do what u r believe in

@mohamedayed Read above.

1º: This is not my API, is an API created by the users for the user, whole community.
2º: If we are not releasing more updates it is not because i dont want to. I really want to share all the updates, fixes to you people, but i dont want you to use it wrong, to spam people and make WhatsApp platform only for commercial.

Most of the people here use this for spamming, thats why Shirioko and other users dont post updates anymore. I like Open Source, i would share everything i know with all of you, i like sharing knowledge but not for spamming. I'll be updating things 'eventually'.

Hope you can make a great cryptanalysis and figure out how everything works.

Good luck :)

@mgp25 goog luck too
well u have the rights to do that for spammers but what about those wanna learn and share knowledge did u think about them

Dudes, why u so nervious? He is not developer of this api. He just made few simple bugfixes long time ago, and just sitting around and reply to stupid topics like "how to keep bot online??!?!?!?111". He has no idea what to do, if the whatsapp changes their proto.
He stops to update this repo? Fine. But.. Lol what?
Go to your private repo and just del this ugly topic.

@mgp25 I never commented here before but I use WhatsAPI and find it fun and challenging, spammers will always be there man, doing for fun or community is not in private repos., however it's your decision.

Best :)

I'll be supporting people in my public repository, as i said before , i'll be updating things eventually.

But im not going to answer how to send messages or my number is blocked. Only productive things. In my private repo im going to update the BIG things, and when i consider ill push it here to the public. I'll help WhatsApp to track spammers and avoid this situation.
