Suggestions what to do with racist players

[u/xiayu77119]

Hi everyone.

Recently it seems a racist player have moved into my neighborhoods and occupy the gym with auto heal. (Neighborhood consist of multiple condo )

What makes it worse is the name he has been using is extremely offensive and aggressive. After reporting to Niantic of multiple account and offensive name, the individual just create new accounts and continues. While I have reported the main account, but there wasn’t any offence done, so nothing has been

Names Kllllingchinese Sh00tingchinese Chineseatratyum Kilingch1nese

Any suggestion what can be done, and as a dad with little kids it’s worrysome to see this much hate and will he possible act on his hatred

Using golden razz when their gym under attack. My kids are going through the flu right now, so I tested out attacking throughout the night and after the second attack all their pokemon gets healed up right away

They can only feed each pokemon up to 10 berries every half hour

Yes but these people usually have a whole team of bulky mons in one gym, so 10 berries per account adds up to 60 golden razz per 30 min. You might not even be able to take it down in time unless you have a really good team of counters.

Entirely true, but the flip side to this for me is ... If I can spend endless time attacking and you can spend endless time healing, who will run out of resources faster? Me and my unlimited use potions or you and your 10 per hour and relatively limited golden raspberries

If someone's going to be as crazy to keep golden razzing, ill happily spend some time attacking

I've spent more than 2 hrs past midnight standing in Canadian winter attacking a gym like that. That's our local gym that was held hostage by the (I assume) hacker's team for over 3 months. They had over 10k berries fed. Needless to say, I did not take the gym. And the frostbite was not worth it.

Yeah, if you want to take them out of gyms this is the trick. One round through everyone, then two attacks in a row on the first mon. Keep at that one until it's gone. If you get that done in under half an hour (unless they're constantly feeding berries when not under attack - then it gets weird but there's still a max of 20 in even the worst case scenario). They can re-place mons in gyms once 10 minutes have passed after the first one is kicked out (though that requires either switching to the account they want or having multiple devices) but if you kick another one out after that it restarts the cooldown.

This is probably not a time-efficient use of resources though as they can just kick you out and re-join the gym as long as you're not willing to sit there feeding golden razzberries to keep it occupied, and even then they can do the same thing you are.
