Y'all act like no one is using IITC, except almost everyone does.
Re: Why can't the Intel map be integrated into Campfire like the Pokemon raid map is?
because Campfire is horrible
Re: Goodbye scanning, goodbye CORE
Thank you for all your free work for building out niantic's lightship database!
Re: Instant bans
@Grogyan Niantic Ingress Ops agents do not have access to the scan data. No matter how many times you say people should scan to prove presence, it's simply not available to the team that would be investigating reports. And since scans can be queued for later upload, I'm not even sure that that would be an accurate indication of your presence on location AT THE TIME in any case.
Re: Instant bans
Spoofing will result in an instant ban, no warnings or strikes. Game relies on honesty and both teams playing fair, if you cheat expect to get banned, paying for core doesn't make you invincible
Re: Instant bans
Niantic appreciates your contributions over the years, but that doesn't buy you TOS violation protection.
Re: Instant bans
Spoofing to take down an inaccessible portal will do that. All the opposition who notice will report, and Vanguards will be on the case to restore the broken links.
Re: Would GPS-less play work in Ingress?
mini games and gps-less play don't support Niantics bottom line. How can they make money from you if you're sitting on the couch moving drones around? They need you to be scanning wayspots, creating wayspots, generating gps data, or beta testing features that will be fine tuned for other Niantic games, etc
I assume Hanke or whoever is steering the ship, is asking for Brian and the Ingress team to focus on features that bring value to Ingress. Unfortunately, value to them and value to us is completely different.
Re: Allowing Links Shorter than 2000m Under Fields [Discussion]
Quite frankly the Ingress Founders Union can get stuffed.
If they had their way, we wouldn't have power cubes, 70% less portals, no level 9 -16, no recursion, no Apex, no Battle Beacons, no Kinetic Capsules, no x2 AP events, no C.O.R.E, etc, etc.
They generally want to game to remain as it was in 2012.
Talk about a (rather small) group of people stuck in the past.
