In Scotland, the law is that you have to stay local to your council area, max 5 miles out for important reasons (shopping, health care, exercise) and at most 6 people from 2 households can meet up outside. These 4 players though have completely ignored all of that to play ingress, they are at least 30 miles from their areas, some as far as 50, crossing at least one local area, and they are from at least 3 separate households. Other players in this team have also done similar law breaking but not as blatant as this (people on my team already reported the other players before but nothing came of it). I'm putting this up here to


Hopefully force niantic to take actions against idiots like these who blatantly break the law for a game

People are welcome to try and defend them, but there is no defence here, they are not sticking to the law they are blatantly breaking it for a game, repeatedly attempts to tell their faction to stick to the law have resulted in nothing more than deflections, laughing at us and this kind of behavior (blatantly breaking the law). What's even more stupid from these morons is that in 2 weeks they could have gone out of their area, but instead they think they are above the law. So im asking niantic to show some common sense and ban these players

    For reference, this is the current guidelines /laws for Scotland (have had to put spaces in to the link because I'm not allowed to post links yet)

  • They have broken the law to play this game, if they can no longer play this game then they won't break the law will they? Niantic can easily remedy this situation by doing exactly that, banning them.so.they don't break the law. Or are you saying that niantic shouldn't punish people who break the law to play their game? Because Im fairly sure that would be one he'll of a pr nightmare and would set a precedence that law breaking is not important to niantic

  • So just to get this straight, using more than 1 account, ban, spoofing, ban, BREAKING THE LAW TO PLAY THE GAME, nah, not an issue for niantic, congrats then, clearly you lot have the correct priorities and thought processes. Based on your logic, so long as its to play ingress, I can break an opposing agents phone or **** them because as you lot say, not an issue (to clarify, I wouldn't, because, you know, I DON'T encourage breaking the law)

    1 is against tos and should get you banned

    2 is a 'local law' issue outside of Niantic

  • Looks like the player has just joined the community forum only a few hours ago knows so much about the game and the players in hand, yet only recently started playing again and was only level 3 over a week ago.

    Seems to me the player in question who has posted this is hiding behind this account. I am sure most people who live in Scotland will know who they are. Please sign into the right account next time.

    Reflection and regret will come to mind soon to the player for the above post.

    This is a community forum not designed for the above post.

    First off, I did not call you out, my friend did, thats on him, I couldn't care less what you do. Second, my friend, not multi accounting, so take your accusations of that right back

  • Katf was also seen in the Scottish Borders last week. Along with bleepyf at a different time. Oh and Matthew185 was down here before Xmas. When things were really bad. Those fares seem to stop when he got called out. I get the impression they think we are buttoned up the backing! Its the same players that seem to always be in the centre of controversy. They are toxic and give a bad name to the nice enl players which there a afew in Scotland but these ones mentioned in this thread are definitely the worst of the bunch.

    Perhaps you want to check your boundary maps. Covenantors grave is in South Lanarkshire.

    Re-read post. Did I mention covenant grave? Also buy an OS map it has official county boundaries? Seems your map must have some erroneous boundary lines. West Linton is Scottish Borders

    Just and make sure you call the police, provide the proof and let them decide. Naming them here is useless and will get your post removed because of "defaming other players" even if what you said is true.
