* Wayspot Title: Colorfully Location (lat/lon): 60.265331, 25.025728 City: Helsinki (Tapanila) Country: Finland Additional Information: I have updated the photos and added a current photo from today, Saturday, March 28th, to demonstrate that the waypoint is still in the correct locati…

Thank you for your comment! I honestly doubt it was due to crowds. We are a small community and we never have large groups of players here; it’s usually fewer than 10 people at most. It’s very rare to see a big gathering in this square, so I don’t think it has affected the local authorities at all.

Thank you! I’m not 100% sure what happened, but it’s definitely not fair since the gym is still there. It’s very strange because another gym and a Pokéspot nearby were also removed recently. I’m new to the appeal process, so I don’t know if Niantic is making big changes or if these were false report…

I’m really glad you posted @Luis36 :yellow_heart: it really sucks that this happened to you. Here is the image that was shared on discord - I will share more detailed info including username and in game name with staff. You can see the low quality and bad editing over the box area where the house a…

Wow, that’s unbelievable! Some people really have too much time on their hands to do this. I’m glad we are making progress, but it would be great if the Admin also verifies this player’s other recent reports, as another gym and a Pokéstop disappeared nearby in a very short time. It doesn’t seem norm…

Did your library have anything happen to it? They also were talking about a library needing to be removed, but it clearly did not. Again they deliberately tried to obscure and mislead

Thank you! Please send it over. Since I’m still learning how to use this forum, I’m not sure where to find my ‘library’ or messages. If you send it and I can’t find it, could you please explain how to view it? Thanks for the help!

Sorry I could have been clearer. A library (Kirjasto Bibliotek) was another thing the same person was trying to remove saying the PoI was wrong, misplaced, needed deleting. It appeared to be completely accurate to me.

If the wayfarer team need any specific information and it has not been provided so far on the open forum but you are also concerned about revealing details on a forum they can initiate a direct message in the forum just with you. Edited as I had accidentally omitted the word team…

Will the gym be put back where it belongs too, so that the abuser doesn’t benefit from what they managed to do? Otherwise restoring the PoI after the gym recalculated will still reward this activity and this person will continue to do this.

Hey, We do not have any control over what type of in-game location this Wayspot will become.
