I’m getting slightly annoyed at the constant recent denial now of legit way markers on public hiking routes. Namely on this Church2Church trail in the Midlands, UK. How can I resolve a denial reason of mismatched location… ? No StreetView in fields sadly and I now don’t have the ability to make on…

Little update on an Appeal I did for the one of the first ones… Mass Produced Item… No. That’s for things like Traffic cones/Plastic Bags etc. Not Trail Markers Really need to replace out these people who don’t understand. Or am I being too harsh? [1000020988]
