It’s really not fair, I know it doesn’t have to be all in the game I play, but only one? And now my city is packed with new PokeStops bit only in places that already had a few. From my house I can only use the lonely PokeStop I gladly put there. I mean, would you continue posting if you know you not going to use it? I already spend a lot in the game to start doing Free work for them.

I get that it can be disheartening when your nomination doesn’t show up in the game you play, but you need to understand that each game has its own proximity rule that determines whether a new wayspot will be added to that game or not. If you want to learn about the system Pokémon Go uses, read this.

Many people use the s2 cell map with IITC mobile, so they know their approved nomination will most likely be in the game.
Welcome @Brenogilmour
You will find a lot of empathy for your situation as so many wayfinders had this lesson to learn.
It’s hard to pick yourself back up again, but if you can there are rewards in the form of new pokestop/gym. So if you want that sort of change the best way to get it to happen is to do your homework and learn about S2 cells. People here will help.

Quite frankly, you should be overjoyed that you can reach any pokestop from your house. Do you know how many people play this game but can’t reach a pokestop from home? No one is promised a home stop.
I also want to emphasize that most people don’t have 4 things that they could even try to submit near their house. So please make sure that when you nominate something it is REAL and LOCATED WHERE YOU CLAIM. Submitting things that don’t exist or that have been misplaced to be closer to where you “want” them to be is considered abuse. Abuse like that can lead to sanctions, including your game account being banned.

I’ve tried to use this app but I can’t figure out how to log in. It’s so frustrating
Welcome @crystalln
Are you referring to IITC?
You need to have an Ingress account -any level- and be able to view the Ingress Intel map. IITC effectively places a layer over the top of this with the grid.
If you have googled and still struck then I would suggest joining the wayfarer discussion discord where they can help.

I appreciate you might not feel comfortable doing so but if you could share location of these we could advise more, and if necessary explain why this has happened.
Ok. Thank you very much.

I really don’t understand, do cells work different for different games? Just got another nomination accepted that’s no going to be on Pokemon go. Honestly I’m starting to have negative feelings for this Wayfarer.
Whether the wayspot is used by which game is not covered by Wayfarer. It is each app team’s choice on how and which wayspots would be used as game objects,
Scratch this.
this is stated in the acceptance email.

However, i strongly believe that having this knowledge improves a person’s experiemce with Wayfarer. The majority of people are attempting to improve their gaming experience. If they knew up front that the thing they are nominating would not appear in their game, they would not bother and they would not be turned off Wayfarer. Withholding this information just makes people angry and feel like they’ve been lied to.
On the flip side anyone who uses that information to misrepresent their nominations, will be dealt with by the new abuse ladder. So at this point, i feel like there is no harm in letting people understand the inclusion rules of the game they play as long as they also understand that abusing those can lead to their game account being suspended or banned.

We can really only help if you tell us more about your situation.
You say you have just had an accept that you know won’t appear. That sounds as though you know the rules?
If you look before you submit correctly then all should be well. So always look before and pin in the right place.
Edited my draft
I see you have posted in this thread which I think starts to answer your questions.

Welcome @MartinTheAussie
And thanks for posting.
I am interested in what you have said, but not sure fully what you are meaning.
Could you expand on this more?
What exactly do you see as dying and can you give examples of where you think Wayfarer is being interpreted too strictly.

I feel like dying in my opinion, like all games in the planet they eventually die out, but now I feel like is almost an all-time low, with the additions on maybe non mural pokestops may bring popularity to remote areas, which can be why people quit, also level 37 is too high, i mean for the average player that can take months. but yea thanks for the chat
Me also but I went into the website and click edit 1 so fair showed up the other 2 havnt showed up
Good day and welcome!
I’m not quite sure which problem you are conveying. Here are two occurrences that might be relevant:
- Contributions may take a bit to sync into the page. Some bugs/low data conditions may also prevent them from uploading.
- I got a POI approved but it has not shown up in Pokemon GO yet? Where did it go?
