PokeStop not accepted, small villages

It wasn’t a dig at you @cyndiepooh but it’s just a bit daunting when any of the ambassadors or other active members throw the acronyms out at a new user that hasn’t researched the glossary.

I’ve seen it way too often when a new post pops up and all the acronyms get thrown at the user that probably doesn’t understand the terminology at that precise moment and to them it’s a “WTH/WTF” (I’m not typing out the big words for this) moment on there screens where ever they are,even when you explain that the “big long words” they don’t know or understand from the Acronym comes from the First Capital Letter of each “big word” and many won’t look up or spend time learning the terms when all they want is there “Pokestop” on the map and not there “Wayspot”

Thank you for contribution. I think that topic gave me another light on how I should look at some places and how those should be described. Now I understand how other’s “cheating” to create new pokestops, and sometimes probably that is the only way to have one PokeStop in place of nowhere, showing only sign with City’s names. In my opinion Niantic should rewrite the requirements and simplify it, some people are abusing and other just rejects without any closer look.

I just tried again with this pokestop with opening the doors. Let’s see what’s gonna happen. :slight_smile:

Thank you all!

I was the only one who had commented. I was trying to be very careful to explain and not overwhelm.

If there is anything you can add to the supporting statement to prove that this shrine is not on SFPRP (single family private residential property) then do that. Just being accessible from the public sidewalk is not enough.

Don’t worry,if I was having a dig then you would know about it,while I was writing my post I was reading everything that was being added so I didn’t tread on anyone’s toes or repeat to the point I sounded like a drone.

Just don’t get me started on the S2 cells as that just makes my head explode :boom::exploding_head: and as an Ingress Player that’s already a lot of input to take on board as it is worse than Glyphs.

Keep us updated on this post,fingers crossed this time round.
