Guten Tag ich habe 2 Emails Inhalt das mein Niantic wayfarer und Pokemon go Account jetzt für 30 Tage gesperrt ist
Das ist die einreichung
Ich habe die Fotos im Sommer fotografiert
Ich würde mich über eine kurze Antwort freuen ob die 30 Tag Sperrung aufheben wieder @NianticAaron
Hi, du kannst auf diesen Link gehen, ganz unten auf die orangene Box und dann einen Einspruch gegen die Sperre abschicken, am besten auch mit einem Beweis dass das Bild deins ist. Das geht normalerweise Recht schnell:
Über diese Link habe ich schon mehrfach Einspruch gegen eine andere Sperrung und ich habe immer wieder das gleiche ich soll einfach die Tage abwarten
Hi, this photo appears to be taken and cropped from booking.com, which is not allowed. You are supposed to take your own photos. If it is your own, I would suggest providing proof of that. As it stands, I can see why the warning was issued.

Ich habe die Fotos nicht von der Seite auch wenn es so aussieht ich habe sie nur aus der selben Perspektive fotografiert sonst würde es nicht so aussehen
I’m having a very hard time believing that a picture identical to the booking.com one in every detail (attached), shadows, branches, leaves, reflections, framing and all is just a matter of perspective.

It’s the booking.com photo, cropped. It would be extremely impressive to take a photo from the /exact/ position at the /exact/ time of day that the booking.com photo was taken.
You can’t reuse third-party images, whether from a website or streetview. This is made clear when submitting wayspots. If you do this and have been sanctioned, it is better to come clean.

Zählt es auch als Bilder von Drittanbieter wenn man das Foto von der Person bekommen hat des es auf Streetview hochgeladen hat und nur auf die Größe zu Recht geschnitten das man es einreichen kann
Yes. The photos must be taken by you and should not be used elsewhere prior to it going through the process on Wayfarer.
Yes.
It is impossible for reviewers, or Scopely, to know that an image taken from a third-party site was uploaded by the reviewer (or in this case, someone they know).
To protect yourself if you are taking photos for a wayspot and want to upload them somewhere else, take multiple photos. Keep one for the wayspot and upload the others.
Never upload the photo for a wayspot to any other website until after it has been accepted. Even then, I wouldn’t do it.
If Niantic is sued by the owner of the image for compensation for the unauthorized use of that image, Niantic will be forced to pay. In Japan, there have often been incidents where municipalities have paid compensation due to mistakes made by school teachers using images they picked up from the Internet to create printed materials. And Niantic can ask for compensation retroactively paid to you for violating the terms of the agreement and stealing someone else’s image. Surely Niantic would not go to such trouble. Instead, they may suspend your account for 10 years.
Do not use other people’s images casually. And since you are the one who will be using the Wayspot, you should visit and photograph it yourself. If you can’t go there, you don’t have to use someone else’s image to submit it.
