Beacuse theres a difference between people quietly enjoying the outdoors because its OUTDOORS, parks because PICNICS, FRIENDSHIP, SKY EARTH TREES AND GRASS - not 2000 zombies milling around screaming and looking at phones. It wouldnt matter if there were hot coals and burning bodies, three intersecting pokestops calls…

Maybe I’m just turning into a crotchety old man, but this shit is getting out of hand... and it’s not like I’m just some grandpa; I’m a long-term gamer (since 1983), but never was into Pokemon outside of the original cartoon so I never did get into the games.

South Park explained it best

You have to be very careful with that, especially since people already unpacked the source code and are going through it line by line to find secrets and such. Having intentionally impossible (or super low odds) scenarios with the goal of depleting in-game currency/items with no payoff and a goal of then making…

Not to be a jerk, but I noticed a couple typos:

Yeah, I don’t understand this thing anymore where they tell you basically the whole movie months before it hits theaters. Leave something for the experience of actually watching the movie!

It’s your choice to ruin it for yourself. There is no mention of what the spoiler is in the headline or in the default photo for the article. Only until you *click the dang video* and *read what the twist is after said video* does one “ruin it for themselves.”

Sorry, I’m not interested in walking down the streets of NYC, where I live, and being confronted with a flash mob of people running with cellphones. How do I know what it is? A shooting? A bomb? Why should I have to even navigate those thoughts just because a bunch of trend following knuckleheads have no concept of…

I never said we don’t need this Pokemon nonsense because it’s a security risk. We don’t need it because it’s fucking annoying nonsense. The world needs LESS crowds of self indulgent douchebag millennial lemmings, not more.

Sheeples for a game. What’s more pathetic is the driver of the Infinity running out of his car with just his phone, and the 2 other occupants leaving the car as well, smart.

Last time I checked, concerts, plays, movies, etc. didn’t entail randomly stopping your car in the middle of traffic and joining a rambling crush of phone obsessed zombies.

I wasn’t really thinking about fear, I was more thinking about annoying millennial idiots rampaging for kicks.

Just what we need in the age of daily shootings and bombings...a fucking game that creates crowds of mayhem.

Im hoping they’d make updates where at certain time (e.g. 11pm-5am) , all the pokemons will be unavailable. The pokemons need their sleep too~~~not just the players.

It’s called being a fucking whiny victim.

If you’re Japanese and you wander around aimlessly in an alley, the police will question you. Same being white in Canada or whatever other vastly Cauciasian country. When everyone is treated equally, everyone is questioned for suspicious behavior.

Also, might I add that hundreds of white people are killed by police in…

I agree. Trying to tie together two wildly disproportionate hot item topics like this is the highest order of crass sensationalism.

The fact that people on this thread are already alluding to Nintendo being short-sighted for this concept....it just boggles my mind, man.

13% of the population committing 50% of the violent crime sounds like the problem is the opposite of what you imply.

Things wont escalate if you calmly explain yourself to the cops. You know why most blacks get shot? Because they act confrontational towards them. If you explain yourself politely that you are looking for pokemon and show the app, they will understand. Unless you are doing something shaddy (get it?), you will never…

OK, I can't relate to what it's like being black, because I am not. But this just seems crazy to me. If fellow citizens are afraid to play Pokémon, there's something wrong with that. Not sure what I am trying to get across, either this is an exaggeration or I am seriously underestimating what black people feel afraid…
