Re: Goodbye Ingress forums
Well I came back for one last post.
Reddit is an awful platform and I outright refuse to use X with Elon at the helm.
Telegram is my primary communication method and likely to remain so.
Given Niantic have not interacted with us on here, in like forever, I'm not that sad to see it go. What saddens me is it's obvious Niantic has no intention to increase player interaction.
We've actually been getting new players lately, the anomalies have been great and shard night was awesome.
Big thanks to the XM Ambassadors sticking around as well.
So long and thanks for all the fish.
Re: Goodbye Ingress forums
Which is the oddest thing.
EDIT: To prevent any additional confusion on here
Re: Why no Niantic forums?
I agree with this. Other Niantic games still have a forum, so categories for each game would be a relatively small burden, and it'd go a long way towards making the Ingress community actually feel valued.
Reddit is a terrible choice in my opinion. They alienated a big chunk of their own user base last year, and there's still a lot of people who refuse to use them to this day.
Re: Goodbye Ingress forums
I now give Ingress two years tops, before it also goes the way of the forum.
The honest active player basis is dwindling and the number of people cheating their way to 'success' seems to be increasing.
If I wasn't so invested in Ingress, I would never touch another NIA game again.
