Hey “Lightship” techsupport… VPS Activation ist still not possible… 3 days now. Ingress players need your help!

Supposedly Lightship was not made for us to activate Overclock, yet this is the only way to activate Overclock! Can’t expect much from Niantic when it comes to getting things right!!

This lag (between pressing the activation button, and anything happening) has happened before. Usually the pause is only a day or two. In July it was almost a week. Looking like this time will be a week. My guess is that the image-stitching program throws an error, and processing stops - and no one…

Am in the same situation, a wayspot is activated in “experimental” form, I have scanned again and loaded only “good” scans. I have a button to reactivate, but I get an error “ERROR: Unable to request a Vps Activation”… This happens to me on two different wayspots… Anything I can do?

Same as this one, [image] ERROR: Unable to request a Vps Activation Bug Reports Tried to activate VPS eligible waypoints but didn’t activate, also give error. [Screenshot_2023-12-17-07-45-01-35_40deb401b9ffe8e1df2f1cc5ba480b12] Also Lightship Mod replied too.

This problem started Dec 15th. I’ve been trying to activate wayspots every day, and got a small subset of requests to work on the 18th & 19th. A Niantic employee replied to another thread on the 20th, saying “While VPS activations are still possible, we are experiencing a long backlog that is caus…

This is not a BUG… niantic F%cks up all the time! As they startet with prime anf since then…

(In the same thread, the original poster replied with unverified outrageous information from another site, so the topic was closed.) Here you mean by Original Poster is me (Dinesh_Valor) and there mentioned information is also from original Lightship site, not from another site (guess you don’t kno…

Your reply was a quote from @IUENG which is not Niantic-related. They speculated that Niantic stopped activations on purpose, without quoting any Niantic source. As the saying goes, “Never attribute to malice, that which can be explained by ignorance.” I don’t think Niantic/Wayfarer would stop act…

That post is not originally mine but I contacted to Ingress support team (Game by Niantic) related same issue and they confirmed about the VPS activation error and I found similar info into that post (by IUENG), so even explaining too much info by my own, I just simply shared that info with all fell…

There is no huge VPS Activation back-log. When it actually let’s you actuvate, it’s finished in the usual three or so hours. It’s simply Niantic showing off their special talent they have called incompetence anc horrible lack of communication.

Unable to request a Vps Activation ... still
