Yeah, gyms are pretty much impossible at this point XD my highest is around 1500 and wouldnt stand a chance against these other people. So I never bother with gyms these days. I dont think anyone does at this point in my area. We've had the same gym leaders for at least a week now XD and theres barely a strategy to fighting making the whole battle system a complete joke

The best strategy seems to fall right in line with Niantic's vision for the game, have a few of your friends with you and attack the gym at the same time.  The problem though is not everyone travels in a West Side Story gang style pack, and not everyone plays for the same team as their friends.

 

Edit: To add, what I just put in the PoGo Nation thread, My level 26 account just got smacked with a banhammer. I left work to go hit some stops and a gym about a mile down the road. On the way back my GPS was lost and then reconnected when I got back to work. So, according to the game it seems like I teleported. Didn't think bans happened that quickly, but who knows. Maybe some whiny bastard reported me for having a strong Snorlax on a gym. Guess I will have to wait a few days/weeks/whatever for Niantic to get back to me.

Bit of a shame, though I actually don't mind starting a new account because at least now it doesn't take 10 balls to catch anything. 

Um may I ask, what does the ban look like, it could be soft ban, which just disables the app for a day.
