Why continue? I have been in this program for more than two years my pictures have been reviewed and seen by over two million people. There has been truly no reason for me to continue taking pictures of every place that I stop and writing reviews for this program. I am not getting free meals I am not getting free products there is no reason for me to continue. Earlier in the year there was an offer for a free magazine subscription but when I clicked on the link it was not currently working. Again there is no reason for me to continue in this program.
Wholeheartedly agree!! Am I doing this just for bragging rights?? An offer once in a while from Google or a sponsor would keep my interest piqued.

Hi @Bacardibull @Taylorcaldwell ,
LGs continue contirbuting to Maps as we still feel good doing it.
If you have reach a state such that you cannot feel any good of doing it, I think it is the time to stop and listen to the voice in your heart.
You can resume doing it anytime when you feel good again.
