We lost like 3/4 portals in our city

I had warned that this could happen if you resubmitted removed portals. Is this what you did? They will have had evidence that convinced Niantic that these do not meet criteria, and submitting something like that is listed as an abuse here:

Please use that appeal link in the email if you need to explain why you thought you should resubmit them.

No i made new nominations i have no idea how they could ban me for it. They are Real i can prove it anytime. But i’m tired after all what’s happend to my community.




What’s wrong with Those? If its wrong explsin me why because i dont understand

are these listed as examples in the emails from Niantic?

Yes i got banned after they reject nominations


The email they send should give an example of the offense. I think it is very common for them to reject all pending nominations when a ban has been issued.

They didnt send anything after ban

Please check again. Did you use different email in the past? Maybe its in junk email. Without it, we dont know ban reason

No im using this one. I have only this ingame

Wait a minute, u can still access wayfarer right? That means the ban doesnt come from wayfarer. If you got banned because wayfarer, you wont be able to access wayfarer

How would we define ‘resubmitting portals’? How would we know if we were guilty of it?

Niantic could add a skull-and-crossed-bones icon to the nearby map, tell the name of the removed object, etc., to reduce congestion due to renomination. Individual explorers have no cause, ability or reason to avoid proposing things that they believe may be eligible.

When Niantic is not forthright about their activities they should not hurl abuse charges against those they think may be countering them.

Niantic must provide the tools that allow us to read the situation, see a geofence, see a history of removal, etc.

Otherwise, they will be penalizing the people who are trying to do what Niantic wants done, and placing all explorers in a double bind.


This is what happen if u try access wayfarer after u got banned “because wayfarer”

I can write only on forum. My wayfarer account is banned too. Ban is for Those nominations. And my friend got banned too without mail with readon

I believe you misunderstood me. This is the abuse:


RE-submitting is not the issue. It is submitting nominations that “blatantly do not match our eligibility or acceptance criterias.”

If Niantic has already removed these once, then clearly they believe that is the case for these. But the issue is submitting, not re-submitting. There does not need to be a warning that these have been removed once. Just follow criteria.

But this is new nominations. I dont get it xd

Niantic dont ban u for submitting new nomination nor they ban you after rejected nomination. I believe there is something else.

Just this 2025 alone i have 106 nomination, 22 in queue, 16 in voting, 38 approved, 30 rejected .its safe as long i am not trying abuse like moving the wayspot away from its location or submitting a fake nomination

But without ban email, i can only speculate. My suggestion now :

  1. Recheck email
  2. Wait niantic team here to confirm ban reason (no time frame)
  3. Try to contact support from niantic website
