Checking in while "passing by" is documented in this thread as an account-killer. Top Guest says something about "velocity," which I suppose has to do with your smartphone's GPS.

Rapid-fire checking in also is documented as a no-no.

Questions to those who have had their accounts closed:

Do you have "friends" on FourSquare, or whatever you use to checkin? They're serious about that too.

And what are you using to checkin if not 4Square?
