"I think there is a large number of bad reviewers in Ingress polluting the system."

#PokemonGO: I have talked with a very active Pokemon GO player, the kind that organize fan events (including multiple charity events) and have enough exp to reach lvl 40 multiple times, and even this player only got one Pokestop submission accepted until now. I myself have sent submissions that should be 5 stars including museums and places of historical importance and never got a single one approved. Places with no pokestops continue with no pokestops while a place already with a pokestop will get more pokestops around it. There must be a large amount of Ingress reviewers who are instantly rejecting anything that is not convenient to them and approving anything that is near the places they usually are. This explains why there are so many low quality stops while so many high quality get rejected over and over again. Does Niantic even check when the same submission get very high and very low scores? Certainly some of them must be doing it maliciously. via /r/pokemongo http://bit.ly/2JiM5Eo
