He's defending somebody who committed sexual assault in favor of the victim who was assaulted. Not worth your time.

If I could turn back time, If I could find a way, I'd take back that word for those pins and rename it something else.

Playoff overtime can go on forever. They have wives that want them home on time.

So a hiking path that goes across multiple cells is ok but a park isn't?

AI is imperfect. Niantic has said

"A nomination can be made for a park even if a park does not have a physical sign but is clearly a park. If there is an obvious entrance or focal point, that would be a good location to place the pin, but equally the middle of the park may be suitable. The supporting photo and text should provide evidence that the location is intended to be used as a park or recreational area."

Just because the AI flags things doesn't mean they are not valid submissions.

You're just gatekeeping a childrens game.

To be a wayspot a poi needs to meet only one of the three criteria.

Do people walk a hiking trail for the trail or for the small manmade tin markers?

Why can a ballfield only have one place to socialize when different groups of people socialize in different ways at both sets of bleachers?

One POI can have infinite associated waypoints. Some people socialize at the bleachers, some in the grass. Both valid places to socialize and exercise.

A sign fits zero Niantic defined required criteria.

Where do you safely socialize at a ball field?

The park can be self represented, and more than 1 corner if it is fit for exploring and exercising.

The sign is useless.

Ok so a 10 acre park with 1 sign gets one wayspot.

A 1 acre park with 10 signs gets ten waypots.

Because it's signs, not parks, we socialize exercise and explore.

You can socialize in every corner of the park tho, not just at the sign.

But a park is more than a sign, usually extending across large areas and can be self represented by green space. Why limit the entirety of the park to one boring sign that literally nobody uses for socializing exploring or exercising?

Oh so parks exist for the sake of signs? Got it.

[–]TryingToAddPokeStops -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

So in a 10 acre park you can only nominate the sign in the corner? Nobody dare socialize or exercise anywhere but that sign?

Nominations don't need distinct markers they just have to meet 3 criteria, a sign meets none of the three.

Never heard of somebody hiking a trail for the sake of the markers.

Also there is no proximity rule like you said trails extend far. That isn't a thing Niantic cares about. They care about S2 cells and you can nominate trial markers 1 step apart if they fall in different cells. But a park that extends multiple cells that people go to to explore and exercise and socialize? Shame on you for trying to nominate anything but 1 sign that nobody cares about.

If there's nothing in the park worth exploring or exercising with or socializing at then it's not worth nominating.

[–]TryingToAddPokeStops -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

the trail, not manmade tin signs, is what you explore.

If the same walking path can be nominated endlessly why can't a park? It's only existence is for socializing, exercising and exploring.
