Make more more local guides aware about reporting spams.
It’s an community driven initiative which can help a millions if fed with right information and used properly. It’s really sad that people use it for ulterior motives. I hope that more and more local guides like @rajuroyal will start reporting spam.
(P.S. - The meet up was conducted at Macdonald’s instead of coffee culture as it was closed because of renovation.)
You are doing a fantastic work, because I believe it will helps thousands of people. Because of spam, anybody can be misguided. So it’s an another great initiative by you and my other Indian local guide friends that you are indicating and flagging the wrong informations.
Es muy bueno tu post @PriyankaU , es un gran aporte sobre las malas prácticas. Las sugerencias que planteas son muy interesante, en ese sentido porque no las registras en el tablero de Exchange Idea, y someterla a votación, que muchos estaremos afor de ellas y Quin te dice, quizás en una de esas, tu idea pasa a formar parte de alguna nueva opción de Google Maps.
It’s is really important to have people like you and you friend, people who really care about Google Maps and it’s really great that you have the passion to report the spammers.
