Removing Outdated or Inaccurate Pins
Giving a pin a dislike helps us find outdated or inaccurate pins to remove.

Permanent Pins
Removed only when they receive a set number of dislikes. Submerged hazards, protruding hazards, map issues, and local advice are permanent pins.
Temporary Pins
Argo automatically removes temporary pins after a set period of time. Floating hazards, weather, police, and sea life are temporary pins.
The Place Pin 
The Place pin is used to mark, well, places. It works a bit differently than the other pins.
First, you have the option to keep your Place pin private so that only you can see it on the map. Second, Place pins are automatically saved to your Captain’s Log. Third, you get to choose the location of your Place pin (it’s not automatically dropped at your current pins like the others).
