@DemonEmperorV@JreSeawolf@MichaelSteranka My point wasn't that it makes the game impossible, nor that the game should be easy, but that its current design incentivises cheating. There are other ways to make XL candy rare but reward skill. For example increase the rate for excellent throws and give them for GBL
@JreSeawolf@MichaelSteranka By this I have in mind principally the implementation of XL candy (or lack of it) but there are many other examples including regional Pokemon (where PvP and PvE viable), coin gathering, difficulties for rural players, etc.
@JreSeawolf@MichaelSteranka Thanks for this. You write so clearly and bring a very balanced view. For me the biggest outstanding issue is: given Niantic's stated vision for the game, it's disappointing that so much of their game design (small changes and large) favours and incentivises spoofing.

Hey @sainsburys we bought one of your Parmigiano Reggiano last week, which we have bought 100s of times before, but this one has the unmistakably strong taste and smell of Gruyere, while maintaining the texture and rind of Parmisan. Is this a new hybrid? And is it safe to eat?
Day 16. I'll be honest, I'm praying Richard will go home soon. But I totally understand why he feels he can't. I admire his determination beyond words. Still, I'm hoping someone powerful will stand up and say: "It's OK Richard. We're on it. We'll take it from here."

@MPSRotherhithe@MPSSBermondsey A member of staff?? What were they having for lunch? I assume @TfL have been informed to investigate what led this to happen
