I wish Niantic would realise that if this game didn't have the Pokemon tag, everyone would've left

It's almost completely died in my small town. It went from easily having 50 or more people running around playing night and day the first few nights to maybe a regular crew of five...if that. It's went froma game that I was completely obsessed with to something I might check...if I remember. So much has killed this game for me.

• Having only one gym and 5 stops within a reasonable distance.

• Fucking gps spoofing cheating fucks who only get a soft ban and return to cheating again four fucking hours later.

• A 90% population of Mystic players in my town. So gym battles feel kinda pointless since there is nobody to compete with.

• A number of those Mystics are gps spoofing...which sucks. Especially considering that I (unknowingly at the time) also chose to be Mystic. Maybe had I of chosen another team it might have given my the incentive to compete harder against the cheaters.

• Not that that matters cause gym battles are kinda pointless and broken anyways. There is no strategy to it. Not to mention...fucking Vaporeons and the retarded AI. Dodge, attack, attack, dodge, attack, attack...

A lot needs to change for me to want to take this game seriously again.
