Better than the Tooth Fairy and Santa Combined
At some point last night someone came to my small city and took down all the Mr Blissey Gyms. A dude with multiple accounts, whom I refer to as Mr Blissey, comes around, bubblestrats, then uses his 10 accounts and drops in Blisseys, (Way more than 10 gyms not just in my city but also the city to the south, total douche). We do fight back, but is slow. The Angle in the Night was brilliant in how he took "mostly" down each gym.
Thank you.
ps. It sure would be nice if Niantic banned people with multiple accounts.

Yes, I also have no idea what people get out of basically ruining the game for others.
Do they tell there friends. "HA I have 50 gyms full of Blisseys, that is way more than your 45!"
A single person who has a single account and GPS spoofs is not nearly as awful for the game as the people with multiple accounts.
on the flip side, this experience has helped me put my play into perspective. I used to drive to gyms, now I'm not allowing my self that luxary. I'm making myself either bicycle or walk.
This is not to poo poo people who drive. it is just something I need to do, and that is exercise as a means to play this game.
Multi accounters can be a pain because they can use a few accounts and attack your gyms at once with a few mons so even fighting back with your own Blissey gyms are no good.
It's impossible to fight them since they can clear a 3000CP Blissey in 30 secs with a few attackers.
Sadly, I do drive to remote gyms, but it's normally only a 5-10 minute drive and some, I've stayed in for over a month so I'd guess it's worth it.
Could it be that a number of the accounts were banned, and therefore removed from the gyms?
You may never see those accounts again.
Probably not...but it is a nice thought.
Not a spoofer story, but multi accounter...I stood and watched someone with 2 phones, one in each hand attacked and dropped a gym the other day. I suspect it was the only way he could get through the Blissey line without timing out - then left 2 defenders in the gym and left.
...needless to say I took it back very soon after, but I shouldn't need to compete against a multi accounter.
