When being softbanned, stop all tasks that can lead to bad things. Like sniper, catching Pokemon or hunting for Pokemon. This will disable those tasks until the softban should be lifted. After fixing the softban, still all catch tasks will be disabled for a minute. Hopefully you will move toward another Pokestop then to check if we are still softbanned. Niantic seems to have increased the number of spins required to lift a softban, but it's unknown to me how many times is needed now.
