Wayfarer Survey

I thought I would share this, so that Ingress players can also take it even if not on the forums.

  • I did not qualify to take the survey. I must be either too old, too male or too ingress-focussed.

    I wouldn't go that far to do pro-bono work.

    I got the survey, they asked which games I played, so I selected Ingress. Then they asked me what my trainer level was in Pokémon, so I pushed the back button, thinking I made an error.

    The page displayed “You have already completed this survey.”

    I can’t answer any questions anymore, haha. Nice to see the company conducting the survey is on the same level as Niantic.

    Apparently you should put “0”. But I don’t know if that lets you pass by it.

    Tried it on mobile and desktop earlier and was never able to get through it. Typical Niantic experience I guess, even when it's a 3rd party survey, lol.

    I stopped reviewing awhile back when rules kept changing and portals stopped being accepted or rejected properly. For a time I was obsessed with trying to get the downtown area where i live dialed in with proper portal placement, things added or removed, titles changed, better photos, etc. I had some success early on, but things started to change, appeals started taking longer and now the last few appeals on the forums have all but been ignored. Just a complete waste of time. I still nominate portals here and there, but my days of attempting to have an accurate playfield are long gone...

    I'm a guy who plays Ingress. I don't qualify for the survey.

    If I choose that I also play another Niantic game, then I do qualify for the survey.

    So, basically Ingress agent's don't matter. Gotcha.

    I did it anyway. I just said I was L1 for pogo.

    If you want to take it again, just copy the link from your email, then open an incognito browser window in Chrome (or Firefox) and take it again and again and again and as many times as you'd like, because the link isn't unique.

    I honestly wouldn't be surprised if pogo folks haven't already scripted a way to auto complete it, to attempt to push whatever agenda that they wanted to try to push.

    Wayfarer is a train wreck.

    We have 'hidden' chats on whatever platform with 'controllers' swaying votes. We have wayfarer ambassadors manipulating the network according to their own agendas.

    Voting / downvoting / submitting is a waste of time unless the points 100% non controversial/beneficial to whichever faction/poke group that dominates the area.

    It was much better (although slower) when Niantic themselves did all the vetting.

  • PkmnTrainerJPkmnTrainerJ ✭✭✭✭✭

    From what I have seen, the Wayfarer Ambassadors haven’t been able to make any changes or push for certain things at all.

    Well one of the wayfarer ambassadors is using scrapers and therefore breaking ToS but none of the staff seem to care. I supplied screenshots and got ignored, presumably because they are providing tons of free work for Niantic.

  • PkmnTrainerJPkmnTrainerJ ✭✭✭✭✭

    I wasn’t aware of that. Thanks for sharing.

    As for “lots of free work”, I’m not really sure what they’re doing beyond what regular Wayfarers do? Much the same as the XMAs here.
