How do I reset my account?
It went to poor months ago overnight from excellent and never rebounded. I kept doing what I thought was an excellent job for a week or two but saw no change. I waited for that work to clear as advised. Most nominations have clearly been decided by now. No idea what happened and I haven’t contributed in months and don’t plan to with no in-game incentives for such a low rating.
I contacted support who said they were looking into it. Never heard back.
I requested account reset multiple times. Not sure if that’s even a function anymore.
I’m sure there are lots of us who would be happy to serve as a sounding board for you to see if your thoughts on criteria match the community’s. It can be hard to tell if you are the one out of sync or if your locals are out of sync. Maybe it is the people all around you reviewing poorly.
Do you remember to check for duplicates on the map? This can be hard to remember.
Do you reasonably verify that the item is really located where the person says it is?
Do you really think about how this item meets one of the 3 stated criteria (socialize, exercise, explore)?
Those are some of the basic “gut checks” we can all do to make sure we are keeping in step with proper reviewing.
I have many many duplicate agreements. It’s something I always check. I report many many poi nominations for a wide range of violations.
I live in a rural area. The reality is different than a city with how the community actually interacts and comes together. There is not a density of 10 “murals” every block to nominate. I put scare quotes because the wayfarer constantly shows me graffiti that I know, having lived in the cities long enough, are going to be tagged over and recovered- they are not permanent and mostly not commissioned. Criteria indicate rejection on these, yet they are more likely to pass than virtually all of the way marks near me which are simple, and unassuming.
Let’s see there’s also the barrage of mall signs. People trying to get generic displays in Tim Horton’s (generic coffee chain) passed, and many other things that based on looking for duplicates appear to have somehow reached agreement virtually everywhere.
I did a great job applying criteria. I have no idea why my rating tanked. Wayfarer has not communicated anything despite multiple attempts to contact them. It’s just an overall frustrating thing.
Clearly they don’t need my contributions. That’s the reasonable conclusion - and why i stopped.
