Wayspot The painted stones gone

  • Wayspot The painted stones.
  • Location 56,71641° N, 10,11446° Ø
  • City: Hadsund.
  • Country: Denmark
    We are upset about the removal. Been trying to contact support and wayfarer team, but it takes weeks to get an answer. This is my last try to sort it out, because it actually really hurts to so see so much work and passion, getting dumped into the garbage. And yes I’m not native English I’m from Denmark. I’m sorry if I spelled something wrong, I think it’s easy to understand what I’m saying. To wayfarer you are playing with people’s emotions and feelings for giving something and taking it back. But Also thank you for opening my eyes, you should be happy about players spending so much hours, time and money on your game. But you did the worst. Also lost my 2 routes because of this the passion is gone. I got 1 left on munchs eng table spot 1. And a lot waiting to get declined. But this just show how much I was trying to get more spots and gyms to my City and neighborhood. It’s not much I’m asking, if you look around other cities and places. Also power spots are very outdated, you are using a jysk that have not been there for 40 years. I reported 5-10 times and it still appears.

I’m still looking at this more but on Power Spots. Those came from the Pokémon GO team, not Wayfarer. You can report those still however by tapping the ? and then ! if they are on private property etc.

I have an inkling I looked at this area before for someone and there were two of these painted stone things. Not sure how permanent they are.

I was correct. It was your post I had looked at before for that area.

You can see that the Wayspot still exists.

It is called “Kålormsten”. It appears on Ingress. But for Pokémon GO you already have these in the same cell.

  • Jeg gik mig over sø og land
  • Hullet i stenen

One of those will be the PokéStop. As Painted Stones was a duplicate, the removal is correct.

Yes, you are right. This was a conversation a while ago. I remember it, but can’t find it.

Reloading the topic and adding image in separately as it’s being odd.

From the same user regarding a duplicate in the area which was explained.

You found it before I even finish typing my post before!

Just to add, regardless, it won’t show because all of the cells surrounding those stones are occupied, too.

I knew I remembered those stones!

Also, you can’t report the same powerspot more than once. Since the SFPRP ones I reported had not been removed, I tried to report again, but got a pop up that I had already submitted a report. So maybe I am misunderstanding that point?

You’re right that they can only be reported once. I’m hopeful for a better Power Spot reporting process before the end of the year.

I feel your frustration✨ I’ve had a few legitimate portals randomly removed too~ Loke everything else, feel’s like Niantic has moved to an AI based portal review and inventory checking process. There is no rhyme or reason for these removals~ I’ve resubmitted and have had one reestablished like it was new so far~🤷🏻‍♂️ Cheers friend!

This being a duplicate provides very good rhyme and reason to remove it.

You may have replied to the wrong post? I’m fine with duplicates being removed. That makes total sense.

Also, be cautious resubmitting way spots that have been removed. It’s better to appeal the removal. If the way spot was removed for a legitimate reason, that means you would be submitting ineligible way spots repeatedly, which is not allowed. That could cause some negative consequences for your account.

I’m not saying that is the case for you, but just wanted to be sure you were aware in case.

And if you a bullying my English and stuff I can easily find an ai translator. To serve you perfect spelling desires.

I honestly don’t believe that @PkmnTrainerJ was making fun of you at all. Rather, they were just responding to me in my post where I said that I remembered this conversation, but couldn’t find it. That was all they were just pointed out to me where it was before.

You can see that the response was directed to me.

I think this post has more information about the Painted Stones wayspot:

It’s a bit confusing because there may be several locations with painted stones, but the same photo was used so it appears as a duplicate.

Hey, sorry if there’s a language barrier and it came across in the wrong way.

I was just calling out where I had seen the area before as the names of some Wayspots looked familiar.

If you do think anything I said is not appropriate you can report it, and then the Niantic staff can review and take any actions.

I see. If it wasn’t a duplicate, it could be re-nominated now but due to how close it is to everything else I don’t think it would appear in Ingress or Pokémon GO

Please remain respectful. Maybe you misunderstood, but I don’t see any bullying or wrong doing.

I am trying to understand why the painted stones have been removed as a Wayspot. It have been there for about 1/2 months. And now it’s gone. Why?

The Wayspot seemed to already exist in the game so it was likely reported as a duplicate and removed due to that.
