Re: Are National Cycle Network Markers Acceptable? (UK)
From that same thread: As you are aware, we consider any marker on a hiking trail as acceptable since our goal is to have folks explore. Even a small marker on a trail will encourage players to cover more of the trail if there are more Wayspots on the way. It is not about how a marker looks, but what it represents. If a… -

Are National Cycle Network Markers Acceptable? (UK)

I've been nominating various markers that are on otherwise regular street signs around my area as we have a LCN route pass through my local area. I also nominated a separate marker which was on a post near my parents house. Here is a picture of the nomination near my parents house: Links to information about the route:… -
Re: Are National Cycle Network Markers Acceptable? (UK)
No they aren't, where have you lot got this idea from????? The website literally says the national cycle network is for cycling and walking (exercise) to get people out exploring, pretty sure motorways arent for exercising and exploring for cars are they? 2 and 3 are road signs yes, but 1 is 100% a trail marker, so no… -

It looks like you are only talking about Eligibility criteria, while I am talking about all criteria. My first statement only talks about the Eligibility criteria, while my second talks about all criteria. They don't conflict.

They’re usually accepted on Appeal by Niantic from what I’ve read (but I may be working with incomplete data, people won’t want to admit they have had Appeals rejected in general) but it’s important to remember that means that the particular trail marker you’ve appealed is eligible/acceptable. Doesn’t mean that another one… -
Re: Are National Cycle Network Markers Acceptable? (UK)
On the scale of markers, rating from great to poor... at some point, a marker falls below an acceptable threshold. It's not written in stone; it's more intuitive. That what Niantic wants to cultivate, even tho it drives most of us batty. Based on just the pictures, here's my intuition: 1 - yes - it's only about the trail… -
Re: Are National Cycle Network Markers Acceptable? (UK)
Ok, and? What does it matter if the sign is made of metal, wood, plastic or gold? A trail marker is a trail marker, I refer you to a previous comment of mine where I posted a trail marker, the John muir trail, that the markers are all street signs, whether they be on the road or on the trail next to the canal, are you…
