A delay with Pokestops appearing in game

General Discussion
1

Hi all,

Since i reached the threshold to create Pokestops I have been around my town. I believe actively I’m pushing more through than anyone else in my town currently is. I’ve submitted nearly 200 so far with a vast amount being approved for all Niantic games.

My question is on the 4th of May i submitted a location in my town which got accepted it was in an empty cell with nothing colliding. It’s been over a week now and nothing has been placed into the game. I’ve had a problem with two other submissions also again taking much longer than the 24-48hrs to come into the game. Not just myself but another player in our community is having the same issues. I was wondering has something changed recently? I’ve submitted things in this time frame which have been accepted and have been placed into the game but for a certain reason 3 haven’t?

I was just wondering if anyone has any information which could explain why 3 stops in multiple location in my town have been approved in the game in empty cells are taking so long to appear?

Many Thanks

Are you sure its the only wayspot inside s2 cells? Are those wayspot close to each other? Certain owner can ask geoblock to restrict wayspot becoming pokestop/gym

Can you share the location aka “coords” of your location so people here can look at it on the map?

If you are using iitc to check cells, remember that is just a map of portals, not all Wayspots. If you are not comfortable sharing the location publicly, you can check if there are other Wayspots you didn’t know about if you turn the toggle on in the nomination map screen and check while you are standing right there. There is also the possibility that your pin was moved in review if you placed it in a cell you thought was empty.
