So aside from the spoofing i didnt see a problem. Weve got some active gym players here aswell. Either you kick them back out, or you suck it up and deal with it and take some other gyms tomorrow. Thats how the game works.
The spoofing however sucks. Not sure why alot of players in your area would flock towards him if its know hes spoofing. Doesnt matter what team your from in my city. If you are a spoofer, you are not welcome in any chat/group and i wouldnt attend raids in person either…
The only thing you can do is keep kicking him back out, feeding your gyms to defend, and report him for the spoofing. Besides that you could try to report him for “exhibiting poor behavior in the real world and/or interacting with other players while playing pokemon GO”. Assuming hes actually doing that. I doubt Niantic will care for him just trolling on your discord. If hes offending people its a different matter ofcourse.

It’s a competitive game, so if they’re actually at the gym location and not spoofing, they are playing fair. This doesn’t mean they aren’t jerks, but they don’t have to leave your mons in gym out of courtesy

They are spoofing. They were doing it almost all night long! They kept Golden Razzing! I’m trying to report them…the one guy also has several other accounts…
You know you can LEGIT feed golden razz berrys from the comfort of your home when your pokemon is in a gym right?
Tap: Pokeball - Pokemon - select a pokemon that is defending - Go to gym - Feed a maximum of 10 different pokemon, a maximum of 10 berrys per player per 30 minutes.
So a full gym can be fed 60 berrys per pokemon every half hour.

The same can go the other way too. You can troll spoofers in a park that closed 6 hours ago by golden razz berrying all the pokes

I have been shunned from raids now. I don’t play in the area, or do very little, since the certain people do private groups on me without saying a word in discord. I also haven’t been able to play Pokemon Go to the fullest because I am shunned from that area too.
Because people have “issues” with me. I also tried to expose the spoofer in the other town, and I got kicked from his server. I recently found out that he kicked another mystic player, who is level 40, from his server. It is now basically run by his Valor team.
If he is a spoofer and the community is centred around him, why not just play with them?
Because they do not like me and won’t let me play with them.
Did they not like you before or after you exposed the spoofer?
They had been harassing other players. I never really liked him. It got much worse after I exposed him…but its not like like people didn’t know. He is two faced though.
We have that type of person in our area as well (Also on Valor). Best thing to do is just ignore them and don’t let him or her ruin the game for you. They’ll eventually grow bored and do something better with their life.
This thread is very sad. I joined my local Pogo Discord back at Christmas and I’m very friendly with fellow Mystic trainers as well as Valor and Instinct trainers. We all get along great and have no problem making sure everyone gets their 50 coins a day. Sometimes our raid turnouts are so large, we have to split into 2 groups.

I just talked with the same local players that took down one of my gyms on discord. They apologized and I told them no problem.
Why would they apologize for taking down your gym? It’s a game and one of the objectives is gym control

We have a really good community here and all 3 teams work together to make sure everyone gets their fifty coins a day and everyone has an opportunity to catch a Legendary.

My area has a similar thing, but there are currently no mystic players.
Here’s an update. Apparently the players that are with this guy blocked in one of my friends while she was at a raid. She had to drive in the snow to get out, which is not okay.
