If you want to propose that instead reviewers could have a list of set phrases to send, that's the list of rejection reasons and the advice to come to these community forums.
Sounds like a great idea until you see comments that some put on their rejection reasons like:
”No Casey. This Starbucks is not eligible”
”This is your ••••ing house. •••• off.”
I wouldn’t want to get those after I submitted something I thought was good because of poor Niantic communications.
Well get it built in with a profanity filter perhaps so it won't post with anything nasty in it.
In theory, it would be a good idea, but let's say there's 100 comments of rejection, 70% will be some variation on "lmankhbke" (in other words gibberish"). 10% will just be insults, and then the final 20% will maybe be helpful, or it will be "not eligible" woth no explanation. Can you imagine how tedious it would be to go through that?
