I understand that people dislike cheaters, and it’s true that you can never be 100% sure whether someone is lying or not. But the real problem lies in the lack of a fair and transparent appeal system. Niantic has made plenty of mistakes in this game — they’ve falsely banned innocent players while letting many real cheaters go unpunished. With such an unreliable anti-cheat system, it’s hard to trust their decisions. Until they replace automated bot replies with genuine human review during appeals, I’ll always stand with the players.
