포켓몬 고 게임 내에서 발생한 문제입니다. 문제의 포켓스톱 위치는 각각 35.235237, 128.648495와 35.232947, 128.653601이며 포켓스탑의 이름은 대원놀이터, 창원순복음교회 입니다. 이 두 위치는 S2 셀의 웨이스팟과 중복되지만, 중복 셀임에도 불구하고 게임에는 여전히 표시됩니다. 조치가 필요하지만, 문제는 이 문제와 관련하여 나이언틱에 계속 도움을 요청했지만 아무런 조치도 취하지 않아 매우 답답합니다. 어떻게 해야 할까요? 문제의 포켓스톱이 원래 위치로 이동되어 중복되었으므로 포켓몬 고 게임에서 삭제해야 합니다.

This is an issue that has occurred within Pokémon GO. The PokéStops in question are located at 35.235237, 128.648495 and 35.232947, 128.653601, respectively, and their names are Daewon Playground and Changwon Full Gospel Church. These two locations overlap with waypoints in cell S2, but despite being duplicates, they still appear in the game. This needs to be addressed, but the problem is that despite repeated requests for help from Niantic regarding this issue, they have not responded, which is extremely frustrating. What should I do? The PokéStops in question have been moved to their original locations, creating a duplicate, so they should be removed from Pokémon GO.

Hi @lama1211
Did you do an ingame report for those duplicates? If yes could you please upload a screenshot from the rejection email?

창원순복음교회 포켓스탑은 게임내에서 신고후 거절 메일이 왔었습니다. 해당 두개의 포켓스탑의 문제사항에 대해 niantic waferer에서 도움말 채팅으로도 신고를 넣었었지만, 몇일째 그대로인걸 보니 거절된것으로 확인이 됩니다. niantic waferer 도움말 채팅 문의시에 niantic의 답변을 볼수가 없었습니다. 왜냐하면 페이지가 일정 시간마다 자동으로 새로 고침이 되면서 로그인 페이지로 돌아가지기 때문이죠

Please share rejection email here. The formal procedure is to submit report from the game first, then you can appeal rejection here.

주로 niantic waferer 도움말 채팅을 통해서 신고를 진행하다보니 게임내에서 신고한것은 한개의 포켓스탑만 해놓은 상태이며, 신고한것에 대해서는 거절 메일를 받은 상태입니다. 해당 거절받은 한개의 포켓스탑 메일을 댓글에 첨부하였습니다

Thank you for providing the screenshots. Niantic/Scopely will review your request and answer this thread with their decision. Good luck :four_leaf_clover:

It would be much better to include maps from these sources:

  1. The view of wayspots and gyms from inside Pokemon Go

  2. The submission map that appears when nominating a new wayspot from inside Pokemon Go

The images you have provided do not prove anything as they are from a third-party site and may contain incorrect data and locations.

Please upload pictures from either (or both) of #1 and #2 above.

@lama1211 I’ve merged your second thread into the first. Please do not post in separate threads about the same issue.

Thanks for the appeal, @lama1211! We took another look at the Wayspots in question and decided that it does not meet our criteria for removal/adjustment at this time.

셀이 중복이 되어도 포켓몬고 상에서 삭제가 되지않는것인가요? 현재 해당 포켓스탑은 셀이 중복되는지라 포켓몬고 게임상에서 삭제가 필요한것으로 확인이 됩니다만…

삭제가 되지않으면 나중에 악용 가능성도 있어보이는지라 조치가 필요해보입니다

I complained about the two problematic PokéStops being duplicated in the cells, but the wayferer team refused to take action, stating that they currently do not meet the criteria for deletion or adjustment. Does this mean they won’t take action even if multiple PokéStops are intentionally created in a single cell? I’m dissatisfied with this decision. Not addressing this issue only leaves open the door for the wayferer team to exploit.

The two problematic wayspots are located at 35.235237, 128.648495 and 35.232947, 128.653601.The names of the two PokéStops in question are Changwon Sunbokgum Church and Daewon Playground. I will appeal until this issue is resolved.

The map you are using to check cells is known to often be incorrect. This map of Ingress portals no longer updates, but shows this Wayspot at a different location. The coordinates that you gave are represented by the red pin, but the Wayspot seems to be further west as indicated by the pink dot, unless it has been location corrected since May.

The same seems to be true with this one.

I have never known Niantic to acknowledge the S2 cell rules. But if they have checked the density and don’t have a problem with it, I suspect the issue is with the tool you are using to check cells. I hope we get that promised Wayfarer map soon.

I checked the cell on pogomap, not iitc. It’s currently in a different location after being modified. The main reason this PokéStop is a duplicate is that when it was moved to its correct location, it overlapped with another PokéStop that was already in the correct location. Additionally, a new PokéStop that didn’t appear in Pokémon GO before the modification appeared in the cell as it was moved to its correct location.

Pogomap is 3rd party and user-generated, thus it can be inaccurate. Right now, there isn’t an accurate map for users to check, but there is one in the works. Pogomap is ok at showing the S2 cells, but it’s not so great at showing current Wayspots in PoGo, or showing Wayspots at accurate locations, as users do not need to provide coordinates when adding a stop/gym to the map.

And being staff did check this out already and made a decision, I don’t think they’ll overturn it just because you started a new thread.

You may also need to provide additional info, such as geotagged photos of the areas, video, and/or Scaniverse splats.

Hi @lama1211
I’ve merged your new topic into your previous. You can post all additional informations here but to overturn a decision you’ll need new/further evidence.

If I understand you correctly the wayspots in question have moved to their correct location. With the move they appeared in a diffrent cell and this cell is already occupied by the same wayspot? Could you share a screenshot of the two identical, active wayspots (wayspot photos)? Or are there now two diffrent active wayspots in that cell? Are there sponsored wayspots?

That’s exactly what you understand.
After the move, it appeared in another cell where the pocketstop was already present before the move.
At the current location of the pocketstop at Daewon Playground, there was a pocketstop called Forena Daewon Comprehensive Endurance in the cell before moving, and although it was duplicated in the cell after moving, there is also a comprehensive guide map for Daewon Playground Pocketstop and Forena Daewon. Also, after moving the pocketstop at Daewon Playground, a new pocketstop called 101 dong rest areas appeared in the existing cell location.
And the pocketstop of the Changwon Full Gospel Church had a pocketstop called the Garden Complex 3 Shelter in Eileen, Changwon Central Park, in the cell where it was moved, which was overlapped in the same cell after the relocation but still exists together. After the relocation, a pocketstop called the Garden Complex 3 Playground in Eileen, Changwon Central Park appeared in empty cells. It’s not a sponsor pocketstop.
