i'm pretty sure a local bar, lucky enough to have a pokestop on it, is seeding it with a lure during their slow hours. it's been a lure for the past 2 hours.

So what's the longest you guys have walked since GO came out?
I've done about 15km in 3 days and I know that's not a LOT but it's a lot for me. My legs are sore as heck.

near my school's library there are 4 pokestops near each other and basically all day yesterday every single had been seeded with a lure and a crowd of nerdy-looking people had swarmed the area

it's hard to say though im sure ive broken 15km
i've biked a lot along with walking because bikes truly are essential tools for any pokemon master
but i don't actually own a bike so i've had to rely a lot on a considerably less useful though still essential tool my running shoes

Urgent news update: Gym in front of my office has been stolen by Instinct assholes. One of them has a 2000 CP Snorlax, the fuckers.
One time, back in 'nam, Sudo was set upon by an entire squadron of charlies. He challenged them all to a game of Pictionary, which he won resoundingly. The charlies were forced to not only surrender the skirmish, but also their world-famous chili recipe, which Sudo sold to Texas for a hefty profit. Sudo is a master of diplomacy.

Woooo my team took a gym so I leveled it to 4 and left a pokemon there. The gym is pretty out of the way so we'll see what happens.

I got a place in a level 7 gym that I have access to from my desk about 50% of the time. It was then taken by a couple of blue guys on a scooter. I went, took it back, only to have it immediately retaken by a yellow.

I did 25km yesterday, but didn't do it with Pokémon go (I did turn it on at some points but no Pokémon appeared) I think I must have already been crazy.

I am the social media king. To be fair, something that works both Harry Potter AND Pokemon is bound to get a bunch of nerds excited.

The library is a pokestop but it is misaligned so you can't actually access it from anywhere inside the library -_-

Is there any way to report things like this?

try "Report High-Priority Issue"
remember it's a free video game for kids and so the term "high priority" is relative

Is the library sign or marquee or whatever on a lawn/across a parking lot so that it's by the road? If so that's intentional because the sign w/ name is chosen as the PokeStop over the actual building.
