Today a person i on the local comminity told me that we had a gym removed. I tried to load the badge and i can still do that, so the gym is not removed, its still in the game. But not even showed as a pokestop? As far as i know, when there is over 20 stops in a cell it will trigger a new gym? There …

As a general rule, when wayspots are removed, the cell rules are re-applied. This should mean that when a wayspot for a gym is removed, a pokestop will get converted to a gym. This isn’t a 100% certainty and also it might take a couple of days. This is still showing on the wayfarer map, so this h…

This wayspot is very close to a level 17 cell border. Has it recently been moved? The movement may have caused it to disappear if so. I note that both the wayspot you mentioned and “Granit Hest” appear to be in the same level 17 cell, and so only one of them should appear in game.

It looks to be in the same place as in the other game. Might still have been moved just a tiny bit for no particular reason.

Game board changes don’t always happen immediately. A new gym may appear at today’s sync, in about 4 hours from now. The wayfarer map that we can see also has a daily sync, and may not be reflecting the current in house data.

Yes. Maybe half a year ago the wayspot came out of knowhere because it apparently was “hidden in the cell” and one day it just showed up as a gym somehow.. Eventhough “Granit Hest” was in the same cell?

There was also a fix made to some restored Wayspots that weren’t showing in game. I wonder if this fix has affected other Wayspots in unexpected ways. [image] Entire playing area got Pokestops removed, submitting an appeal Wayspot Appeals Everything finally ca…

Something similar happened at my site, but with a PokéStop. It appeared in a cell that was already occupied. That PokéStop wasn’t appearing because the cell was already occupied by another waypot, and today I realized that both are sharing the same cell.

There have been several instances in these forums recently when S2 L17 cells have had two active pokestops/gyms for user-submitted wayspots. Niantic have said everything is behaving normally, so there appears to be a rule that the community haven’t been able to determine.

Yeah. I must wait and see. I was just shocked that the fountain was gone. Especially when i havent seen some changes in when im reviewing stuff
