"[BUG] Still experiencing the 2-item Pokestop problem? Let's troubleshoot together"
#PokemonGO: SUMMARY - there is still a small minority of us who are experiencing, 90% of the time, a downgrade of only 2 items per pokestop. While this was fixed for most players on Oct 11 2017, this minority is getting left behind. Let's share what we know so that we can find a pattern!Receiving only 2 items per Pokestop is devastating. Luckily, this was fixed for most players on Oct 11th. Unluckily, nearly a full week later, I'm one of the minority (2%? 5%? 10%?) who hasn't been fixed, and I can't play the game as frequently as a result. I may have to take a PokeHiatus. I'm worrying that if we can't find a root cause, Niantic may not be able to troubleshoot. So let's provide some stats and see whether there is a trend anywhere.Evidence points to this problem being server-side, not client-side (bug still exists no matter what the phone; friends using our phones don't see the issue at all). We'll still jot down phone info for completeness.Hopefully we can catch some correlations!Level - 37Date Account Created - 18 July 2016Did the 2-item Pokestop problem get fixed for you on Oct 11, like it did for everyone else? - NopeHow often do you receive only two items per Pokestop? - Taking out daily bonuses, this happens approximately 90% of the time. The other 10% is usually a 3-item or 4-item drop.Are you an urban, suburban, or rural player? - Urban/Suburban - Urban/Suburban blend, and the bug is already game-breaking for me. I couldn't imagine experiencing this as a rural player.Approximately how many Pokestops are within a 5 minute walk from home/work? 5-to-10Google Login or Pokemon Trainer Club? - PTCOperating System - AndroidP Go Software Build - 0.77.1Do you use a Go Plus or a Gotcha? - NopeDo you, or any of your software tools, dance around the Niantic TOS (spoofing, IV Trackers that are intrusive, etc.)? Nope, and I really wish people stopped asking thisDo you have a Mewtwo? - I don't believe that they existAs of right now, how many items are in your bag? - 1471/1500. I'm a hoarder. But the one difference now is that compared to the past, I now have to leave Pokemon fainted or at 50% health.How many Gold Gym badges? - Just one, and this is a life-saverHow many Silver Gym badges? - 17, and half of those were received in the past 10 days because I've been looking for a workaroundHow many raids are in your Champions badge? - 121Over the past few months, how many Revives have you thrown away? - Hundreds upon hundreds upon hundreds, and I wonder whether this situation is punishment for keeping a full bagHow active were you during the most recent September Equinox event? - Very active. I collected nearly 800,000 stardust, and was out all the time. With this item nerf, my playing time has decreased by at least 90%Hopefully our shared data can help somebody! via /r/TheSilphRoad http://ift.tt/2zqcSpZ
