Yes, my neighborhood has two PokeStops literally next to each other. We literally let folks attempt to take the gym before striking back...... Makes it fair and fun. But we all give playful crap to each other when a different color. I'm instinct.... Easily noticeable by my T-shirt lol. People always give me some minor remark like.... Should have joined mystic! I'll respond back with at least we got the gym! From there it goes into where nearby legendaries or rares are. We were directing each other all night yesterday. I got hitmonlee, porygon and another Charmander in 30 minutes. Nothing is serious and you can tell who's not from the neighborhood when the stop by due to their attitude and then they get a mouth full of words from all 3 teams.

You sure about that? Installing an app from outside the Google Play store is completely trivial unlike iOS.

I've only encountered friendly rivalry but it's funny that people are taking the teams so seriously.

You're still missing the point entirely. Your comparison is irrelevant, as your copy of Diablo 3 was not a consumable. You lost time, but not what you actually paid for. A better example would be buying game time for World of Warcraft, and the servers being down for most/all of the duration.
People have spent real money on items, and have essentially lost them. That's wasted money. And as for your earlier comment regarding it only being a few cents, who are you to decide how much is acceptable for people to be ripped off?
How would you like it if you worked for a huge company, and they underpaid everybody by a few cents, thereby making themselves a ton of extra money on the side? Even if it were an accident, they should give that money back.

Servers are getting hammered, I'll keep trying but haven't gotten in over the last hour

My father already told me that he is just at the point of quitting because the game is a broken mess, I'm almost at that point too since I just wasted 2.5 hours... so I'd say that people are getting disappointed.
It isn't even thinking for me, straight to the we're sorry screen. That'll be all for the week for me, oh well.

I was on most of the day at work. Just idling.
Yes, I'm sure because they aren't teksavvy at all and go the easy way ie. the stores

Well, I see Bulbasaurs quite a bit where I live, not as much as pidgeys and rattatas of course, but definitely a couple times a day at least. I've seen wild Squirtles only once or twice.
Felt stupid for telling him to bring it home for me since I don't skate. But I figure I'll hang it up in the living room or something.
Did a quick look online, this is the only place I found if you are actually interested.

Don't think so. I don't know much though. Board is by Baker, thought that dude was DC
Yea, crazy how much more popular this game could be if it wasn't plagued by server issues since release.

My brother tells me there is a giant pikachu you can take pictures with at the bean.
That's exactly my point though, you don't need to be tech savvy AT ALL to load an app from outside the Google Play store. All you need is a link (which were being openly posted around the web) and two taps (one to download, one to install after download) and that's it.
There was a guy last thread who was able to download and install the app from outside the store, but then couldn't find the app on his phone because he was THAT new to Android. It is really, really, really ridiculously easy to do.

Yeah I know. I'm ready to drop 20 bucks on coins to get lures and incense but am holding off because I don't want to lose anything to the server issues.
i lost money on diablo 3 because vanilla was a piece of shit before it got fixed and lowered to $20. how hard is this to understand? and i even tried to go through their shit authentication servers at launch week expecting an actual good game. it's like getting shit on top of shit.
If Niantics burn all servers this week, then next week we should began to see the light.

I'm close to just giving up on this mess. Shit servers and have lost paid items.
What's the best real pokemon game to play instead?

I seriously doubt the servers will be even close to stable until this evening.

I never had a single issue at D3 launch, I took 2 weeks of vacation time and was not disappointed at all.

LOL, that is just terrible.
They're all much better than Go so you can't go wrong with any of them.
Met some fairly competitive gym gym players last night (instinct represent) they had two gyms in close proximity leveled up to eight and they were strategizing the best sequence of Pokemon types to make it as hard as possible to take down. I tried to help them level a bit but I could barely take down the mon on the first level. Anytime someone came up they would ask what "set" they claimed (not in a bad way just joking around) one time a group came up and didn't answer them and the "leader" of the instinct guys yelled out "squad up" and like 8 guys ran over from the other gym to defend it. Pretty entertaining stuff, and gave me a better appreciation of the gym mechanics.
This isn't the first time you've dropped by to shit post. People are upset because their money-spent items are being wasted. Rather than Niantic focusing efforts on stabilizing the game, they're causing more problems for everyone by increasing their volume far past what they can currently handle. That's perfectly fine to be upset about.
If you have a DS Superior Silver/Heart Gold, Black/White, Black 2/White 2 are pretty damn fun.
The 3DS has X & Y and Omega Ruby and Alpha Saphire.
I would be more mad about wasting gas money or time going out to locations
Whilte he's definitely exaggerating, using one of those paid items - KNOWING the servers are having issues constantly - is not the smartest thing to do.

Fuck off with this nonsense. If I spent money on items and I lost them I'd be pissed to.
While you can pin that on them, I'd also say Niantic should not be offering paid items at all and processing payment while they know how bad their servers currently are. Goes both ways IMO. If their store is up, people will assume everything is good to go. Not everyone pays attention to the server status and updates on the game's progress.
Like I said. Neogaf members should of known better especially people who post in this thread.
Hmm, It's almost like they didn't expect the game to be a cultural phenomenom.
Time to destroy their server
