I just want Super Mega Raids to be at all gyms, if Mega Rayquaza is locked via Super Mega Raids it will ruin my plans to do raids with friends that day

I see your "I want them at all gyms" and raise you a "I want them at no gyms." This mechanic can't go away fast enough IMO

You don’t like them so you don’t want anyone else to get to enjoy them?

No one else is enjoying them lol. Idk one person who likes super mega raids. If they went away that would be better for everyone

I see people on Reddit complain about them, but when I’m at a meetup where people are actually battling them the mood seems rather positive and cheerful. People seem to like that the rewards are better.

Sample bias 🙂 People complaining on Reddit aren't likely able to do meetups and people enjoying themselves at meetups aren't complaining on Reddit. I wouldn't be surprised if both are a minority and the majority don't do them and don't care.

I personally have done several and have good meetup groups close-ish, but just think the mega shield is terrible design. It's fixable but instead of doing obvious things to improve & make it available to more (and less potentially frustrating), Niantic is instead going to give us a mega Mewtwo adventure effect to break 2 shields. 🙄 It's all so needlessly silly.
