Why I Hate The New Coin System

The image says enough, no one is taking this gym and I've gotten 0 coins for two days. This is an issue. Or maybe no one wants to f@ckle with shuckle

Only 2 days? I've had mons get spider webs on them for sitting 5 days in gyms until some people finally kicked them out. Niantic made gym attacking pretty much pointless because instead of stopping the opponent from getting more coins, you're actually helping them if you send them home. If the opponent could continue to gather 50 coins daily and claim them at a certain hour, that would be more of an incentive to stop them from collecting all 50 coins.

The biggest thing I hate about it is the 50 coin/day limit. I can manage the other aspects by choosing which gyms to occupy and when, but I can do anything about the fact that my reliable coin income has been cut in half (and the elimination of stardust as a gym reward is even worse).

There is something you should keep in mind: 99.6% of players were not able to colect more than 20 or 30 coins per day, so they are actually collecting more coins now than ever before.

I was used to collect 40-50 coins per day, so the new cap doesn't hurt me. On the other hand, my wife has doubled her incomes. So I miss the dust, not the coins.

Lucky you. I've gone 3 days without collecting a single coin while having 5 Mon's on gyms. My collection has been even less than normal because gyms are barely changing teams...

... and then 4 go in a single day, and I get 50 coins for defending 4 gyms for 3 days.

So screw this new system.

I didn't make the decision to stop defending and attacking gyms, I just keep forgetting about them because the new system is so dull. I was addicted to finding spots in gyms for my Pokemon before the update.
