I understand your feelings. @user_not_found

This post helps you.

Why was I removed from the Local Guides program?

The appeal from takes time, because it’s needed investigation of your google Maps account.

Google Maps doesn’t send any Email for removing you from the local guides program.

You are removed from local guides program, but your google Maps account is not deleted.

Still you do the contribute as google map user not as local guide.

Hence, it’s illegal to create two google Maps account for local guides program,

You will be again banned.

So, try to avoid to make second account.

I hope your account will be reactived.

Kindly read again,
