I hold 7 gyms still since the update and top off to cash out ten every day , on instinct . The ones that get taken down are high traffic areas . It ' s always been that way for instinct , but now for mystic and Valor too . So yes , it is pointless to build up gyms in high traffic areas . Welcome to the club . <| sep |> no the problem is if they post a starting time , i expect them to start there . if they have to extend that is because of unforseen circumstances . when they extend at the start , they should have just originally said thats when they were going to start . i woke up early for what i was told was when it was going to happen and it didnt . Imagine turning up for a football game only to find out it started 2 hours earlier and you missed it . Its like that .
