I mean, there have been times when I’ve felt slightly bad about hijacking a planned agenda. But we did it for the community!
Also, that random AI generated guy kinda looks like Thibs. That was not intentional, but I find it funny.

I can’t help but wonder, with them tweaking eligibility criteria, is there any plan to adjust onboarding and new wayfinder education to ensure that those newly eligible have the best possible experience rather than getting slammed with coal rejections and dipping because of the perception of reviewers being gatekeepy?

We don’t even know yet what these changes will be, so best to wait and see.
Well, I’d bet you my Pokemon card collection they’re not about to raise the cap so fewer people can nominate waypoints.

That doesn’t make sense, since they lowered eligibility requirements earlier this year, and seem to be looking at doing it again to get more involved.
Where do you see that?
Great news, and thanks for the quick reply!
I will happily wait knowing they are still planned for a now unknown date.
You’re the best @NianticTintino

I think they may be referring to this:
In the original announcement, up here
Yeah, this doesn’t say anything about criteria changing, just that there will be support for remote/rural areas, as well as revamping player eligibility, which isn’t criteria eligibility.

Be sure when you refer to that you articulate “player eligibility.” In a forum like this making a comment about “eligibility criteria” is usually interpreted in reference to wayspots. That is not discussed at all in the announcement.

Right, I’m not talking about the criteria changing. I’m just suggesting that onboarding be made more accessible and deeper, so that newly eligible to nominate wayfarers have a higher chance of nomming something that a.) is eligible to become a wayspot and b.) won’t result in a where’s-my-pokestop post here their first go.

This has been discussed many times in the past, so it’s nothing new. I’m sure it’s something that will be looked into.
Many of us noticed nominations for ineligible POIs after the lowering to lvl 35 this year, and many wanted to see more education for new users.

I’m thrilled that the long-awaited map has arrived. By the way, does this mean the posting limit increases based on contribution evaluation? Like, instead of 40 posts, it becomes 80?
Yes Pleaseeee! 1 submission per day is so slow for me. Consider how much project, temple, chruch, so many good area with no wayspot that I want to post…

All in all, sounds like a pretty sweet road map.
My one question is what this means:

Surfacing High-Quality Wayspots
[/quote]
Is this about making high-quality Wayspots more visible to more people? If so, how is high-quality determined as far as this goes? Will there be some kind of Pokestop/Wayspot rating system after they’re already on the map, or something else?

I am excited about the whole roadmap, truly, but everything else is almost pointless without a map. MAP MAP MAP MAP!!

I think the community might need a MAP in this thread, I am not sure though…
