So there is a gym that is right next to where I work that I like to grab whenever I get a chance. I don't care if it gets taken back because that's how it is supposed to work. What I feel is insanely broken is that last night I was trying to take it and people were using berries on it constantly fully healing everything in it.

I sat there doing battle after battle after battle after battle for about 45 minutes trying to take this gym. I would go in, win, and when I would exit to heal up and go back in, everything would be at full health again. The first couple times I did it I didn't mind because I know there is a berry limit per 30 minutes so I figured I would be able to just keep going and eventually win. But noooooope. It just kept going and going and they kept healing and healing. I watched the berry count go up on each of the pokemon but eventually they started going up 1 at a time between fights which I think means they were using golden berries to heal up? Who tf does that?

So after 45 minutes of tapping the shit out of my phone, (another extremely annoying feature because no one likes mindless tap games and they should put in a specific button for dodging to make it actually work when you want it to) all I got was a depleted revive and hyper potion inventory, about a third of a level (I'm 22), super sore thumbs, and a complete loss of motivation to play this game.

I stopped playing about 3 months after I started the first time because the game was more annoying than it was fun. Now I am feeling the same way after only a few weeks. My list of things I hate about the way Niantic treats its fans and community and the pokemon name grows longer and longer everyday.

The worst part about that gym was that there was a freaking magikarp there defending it that they also felt the need to use berries on every single time...

Rant over.
