So I've been trying to fix a doubling issue for a while now, I used to listen on my console, which I didn't know caused that until someone told me, I now listen on my phone, which, fixed it for the most part but it still doubled occasional, now it does it really often, I have the scrobble at 60%, only Spotify is turned on, I used to binge like mfn, twist by korn for shits and giggles with a friend and that's about it, and stopped when it said I could get banned, I binged on nine inch nails for a while, where it, occasionally doubled for some reason, someone got upset by me doubling, didn't know how to delete scrobbles during that time, I genuinely, don't understand why I'm banned, there's no inbox notifications on the lastfm site, no email, no nothing telling me why or even that I got banned at all

you are banned from global functions because your profile has a large number of impossible plays on it. I had a look now and found multiple simultaneous plays, as well as consecutive plays that are shorter than the song being played, meaning it would not have been possible for someone to actually listen to them. there may be other issues as well that I didn't note in my short look at your account.
drifting sorrel
that's because of the, doubling
thick island
that may be, yes.

You have still submitted double scrobbles even after you made your post
We don't unban people unless they're able to remove all 'bad' scrobbles
drifting sorrel
I literally, don't know how to fix it
And there's like fuckin probably at least 15k
cyan summit
Yeah, it seems like it has happened since the start of your profile
drifting sorrel
yeah
probably
I don't see any Spotify settings, letting me do anything correlated to last fm
fierce hemlock
If you use Spotify mske sure that any other applications that can scrobble (like the last.fm mobile app) doesn't see Spotify
drifting sorrel
yeah I asked a friend and I deleted the app for last.fm, it doesn't seem to double scrobble anymore
fierce hemlock
You can still use it if you want to. You just have to go into the settings (tapping your profile photo) and turning off Spotify on the settings.
That said, there are scripts for bulk deletion of duplicated scrobbles which would make cleaning up slightly less annoying
drifting sorrel
is it, unbanned wdym by the "you can still use it if you want to"
I might get a script for that cuz, that's, yeah
do you maybe have a script to give to me, or do I go find one rn
nvm do not have pc, okay, but the doubles are fixed for sur
uh, also, the guy that reported, did not tell me shit, about how to fuckin get rid of the double scrobbles, which I think is bull
thick island
that is not their responsibility. it is yours.
drifting sorrel
what
thick island
you can always ask here, which you did.
drifting sorrel
no I'm just mentioning he lied about saying I've been told how to prevent double scrobbles
thick island
oh, okay. I understand.
drifting sorrel
Okay

What I mean is that you can tell the last.fm app to not scrobble from Spotify which will also stop the double scrobbling. In case you find that the other features of the app are useful (I quite like it myself for looking at my current history for week/month/year without having to go to a website or run a bot command). See the images for how to turn off Spotify in the app.
