I know plenty of people that share the same view point as you and just see the Wayfairer program as people doing free work for Nianatic.
I happen to Disagree with this point of view and a fourm dedicated to the Niantic Wayfarier pogram im sure isnt gonna to attract the playerbases of specific games that happen to aggree with it.
there are many in my local playerbases that happen to agree with you on this matter and play the game there own way. although they havent bothered to even log into these fourms as this aspect of the game simply doesnt intrest them at all.
