This is a rage post against Niantic...

I know that probably not the best place to show it but when I have seen this I had to share with you...Let me put into context here, this is an Spanish Youtuber that one of his subscribers sent his/her account with ALL the 26 forms of unown, I don't blame the YouTuber at all, he just wanted to show how all the forms look into the game and provide content for his viewers, but when I saw the account I started feeling this burn inside me...

How in the world is this player still not banned? How can it be posible? I know that there are milions of hack accounts, but seeing it like this, so close, made me realize how bad is hacking/cheating into this game, seriously Niantic? Someone made the calculations (I think on reddit) and with the current spawn rate of unown it would take an insane amount of years to get that gold badge, you have a player that has them all and he is still able to play? This must be a bad joke...Instead of pursuing this guys you keep posting stupid tweets about the milions of eggs hatched by bots/cheaters during the easter event, hilarious.

Sorry for the rage anyway, just had to say that, the video is right here so you can check it, go to minute 3:45, after showing them all he checks all the locations to state that his/her subscriber has cheated of course, travelling all over the world in a week or so. It is insane to see the locations and the day that all those mon were caught...

I also saw a youtuber who was spoofing LIVE. reported to Niantic and no actions were taken. This game is shiet as niantic. I was trolled by BOTS today while taking gyms. it's so hard to play this way... FUCK niantic. They don't even read this..

I will reply again with some data.. He is not cheating. He said he is showing an accout from a subscriptor. I speak spanish and he clearly said that. I don't know if it's true. He also said he doesn't have any of those. He is just showing the people those pokemon.

Which is exactly what the op is saying; this post is directed towards the subscriber, not the youtuber

This was my point, the post was always against the person that shares the account, not the YouTuber himself, as I clearly stated I don't have anything against the youtuber, he is just finding content to share into his channel, he just wanted to show how all the forms looked in the game.

What a stupid guy. Didn't he recognize standing next to a weedle? And doesn't also weedle have 26 forms? Come on guy, catch THEM all. ;)

Just forget about it. Find a way to play that doesn't interfer with spoofers. If you realize that x legits + y spoofers spend more money than just x legits, it's never gonna happen that they get banned.

Try playing in an area where the only gyms accessible are continually taken over by spoofers. Have fun collecting 0 coins and try playing

It is imposible to forget it, if we as legal players just forget about this it won't be solved, this is the HUGE PROBLEM of this game, spoofing, hacking and botting has to be Niantic 1st point always.

Still not seen even 1 x Unown. It is impossible to get all 26 in such a short time without cheating. Should be banned.

I see more ghosts then real players, it's to the point that the only way to get a stable gym is to find the rea were your teams spoofers are active try to get a spot and hope you don't get shaved.
I tried holding a few of my local gyms but have given up I have better things to do with my time and suspect that it is a prelude to my attitude to the rest of the game.

Thats just the tip of the iceberg. Im joined a local feed for hunting rares and theres a spoofer chat room that I scroll thru and the methodologies that spoofers and botters use now is insane. Besides getting you even more angry I dont want to provide knowledge to these types on this site so I wont go into detail. Theres another game being played within the game and legit players are ridiculously at a disadvantage basically spoofers and botters have no restrictions in time or space that legit players are completely limited by. I know for a fact that most spoofers and botters never spend a dime and if they do its on the black market not in the poke shop. Why buy incubators when you can spoof to 100% level 30 larvitars daily. Why buy lucky eggs when stacked level 30 accounts cost 99 cents. The thing that bothers me the most is that these players think they are superior players in skill and ability when they are actually being looked down on by legit players. At least before it was me against one spoofer but now its gangs of spoofers fighting gangs of other spoofers. No area near me is exempt from this.

I m watching as spoofers taking every gym i was holding outside of city center. They had like 30 gyms in city but ofc it wasnt enuf so they are expending and there is no way i can fight back since i cant go every gym in one day.

I think it's posible (or at least not bad idea) that Niantic unlock an award when it's posible to catch all the 26 unowns legally. By that way they wouldn't lose players and at the same time they would punish cheaters who have already get them all

No, there are not unown nests at all, and if that screenshot is yours, YOU ARE A CHEATER.

you know it would be funny if unknowns were a spoofer detection system that you got flagged for each over the first.
