Re: New Forum, New Adventures, Same Explorer Community - Discussion
Why would this be on the community site and not be something you’re putting on the help pages?
Also, where is this strong sense of déjà vu coming from?
Re: New Forum, New Adventures, Same Explorer Community - Discussion
I am concerned that the community will lose some valuable members. I rather not lose anyone and I hope it is limited.
Re: Violations at Tao Dan park
Dear Niantic,
This report is false and based on personal hatred rather than a desire to contribute to the community.
Here is the evidence:
- Tao Dan Park has been a popular location in the Pokemon Go Vietnam community since the game's release. It has been featured in many Vietnamese mainstream media outlets.
- From the game's launch in 2016 to the present (2024), the park has been the site of many special Pokemon Go events, attracting a large number of players and forming a large and healthy community.
- There is no evidence that any players have ever been at risk or harmed at this location.
The resetting of the PokéStop based on the hateful personal opinion of this player is having a negative impact on the entire Pokemon Go Vietnam player community in **** Chi Minh City. It could even destroy the connection of a large and loyal community of players to the game.
We urge Niantic to restore all PokéStops to their previous state and to provide special protection for this area, which has connected thousands of Trainers and created an unparalleled Pokemon Go community.
Re: Are trailmarkers no longer good wayspots?
I have no problem stating that I believe Niantic reviewers are wrongly rejecting trail markers. Their own onboarding tells you that trail markers are GREAT POI.
How else are we supposed to interpret this training image?
Re: Request for restoration of "Wandelrouteknooppunten"
I am very disappointed in this decision, and hope Niantic listens to the community and to their own standards and gets on the same page about these trail markers, which are the epitome of encouraging exploration and exercise!
Re: A portal to which there is no access
Locations don't need to be accessible by every member of the public, as long as it has safe pedestrian access by somebody it is still valid
Re: New Forum, New Adventures, Same Explorer Community - Discussion
All accounts that have received well-deserved bans here will again gleefully create their foolishness on the new forum? Good luck to all of us.
Re: New Forum, New Adventures, Same Explorer Community - Discussion
Wait, are you really going to delete years of posts on a whim, with practically no notice?
Re: Does Help Chat just copy/paste the link to the removal form now?
Thank you so much for illustrating exactly why the ability to privately ask help chat to remove wayspots is important rather than subjecting oneself to attempts at public humiliation when trying to do the right thing. You win. I am done.
Re: Trailmarkers - warning received
To date, we see no change in the way Niantic addresses this. Warnings are still being issued and I have even seen people's accounts banned for nominating trail markers of well-documented routes.
What has clearly gone wrong here is that you seemed to have changed the rules silently, and then started to threaten the accounts of people who did the work according to guidelines. When I look in the "Eligibility" section of the Wayfarer site, trail markers are STILL listed as examples of eligible nominations, yet the best documented ones are removed and worse: accounts have been suspended. How can you possibly explain this contradiction?
It would suit you to formally apologize for this behavior, and reimburse the people who had their accounts suspended.
