Hello Trainer! Banks are eligible locations that are publicly accessible. Please make sure that while nominating the banks you include the place marker/signboard which represents the Waypoint. The Wayspot should be accessible to players without interfering with bank activities.
However, if you feel the said nomination is not meeting any such criteria please report it to our dedicated team through the Wayfarer support chat option (http://bit.ly/3VgYtG8) on the Wayfarer website. We'll take it from there! ^GA
Yep that was their respond when I asked them on twitter.
And you're multiaccounting. Have a nice day.
It's as if you've completely glossed over Niantic's response about banks.
The response is the most important thing in this thread, not the
pretty blatantmultiaccounting."Banks are eligible locations."
This is the same person who also posted this:
Multiaccounters have the same treatment as Niantic does with ineligible nominations; they simply do not care.
That was my brother's account not multiaccounting🤭
screenshots was refused to be shared by my account btw
What is wrong I made when sharing a question I didn't know its answer ?
Then I shared the answer for people in community
Almost everything is eligible. That means that it can be a valid wayspot, not that everything is a good wayspot.
I hate to pull from @NianticDanbocat ’s “dog **** bins could be okay” thread but:
Just because they could be eligible, doesn’t always mean they’re acceptable.
Oh, please let your “brother” know not to multi account, and to check the terms of service too.
If you check the terms of service and apply them to multi accounting you will cut the Go userbase by 50%.
No more money for Niantic... bye bye Ingress.
Bursting the balloon and harpooning the whale.
Puns intended :)
Yeah, it’s a shame they let it get so out of control but the dollar signs flashed up so they look the other way.
I think it would have taken a lot of time and money to create a system that would be able to differentiate between second, third, fourth accounts etc and actual shared family accounts.
The only way maybe was for Go players to be a bit less willing to accept it in the same way Ingress players did.
Personally multi accounters, spoofers don't bother me or interest me but it's too late to fix either now.
Banks are indeed eligible locations, at which you can submit acceptable Wayspots. They are not schools or PRP or Emergency Services Lanes. It seems, though, that this offhand statement by an unnamed staffer is being broadly interpreted as "Banks are acceptable! Submit all the banks!!!!" and I don't think that was the intent. Wayspots within a bank are cool, though, or banks that have interesting architecture or history where the building itself would qualify as a Wayspot.
