Como podem ver a minha sugestão de pokeparada na França foi recusada por não atender os critérios, porém hoje na Alemanha vi uma que a placa quer dizer exatamente o mesmo. Como podem explicar isto? Já não é a primeira vez que me acontece.
Welcome to the forum ![]()
It is not a good idea to base your wayspots on what you see in the game. It is more appropriate to base them on the criteria.
What is already in wayfarer that looks suspicious might be eligible under old rules, might have been a borderline submission that got lucky, might be ineligible but reviewers didn’t apply the criteria properly or might have been abusively reviewed.
To be accepted, a wayspot needs to meet criteria and be eligible
Criteria: one or more of
- Social - great place that assists with being social with others
- Exercise - great place that assists with exercise
- Exploration - great place to explore, that people would show to others and visit
Eligibility
- safely accessible to people who are allowed to be there
- does not obstruct emergency services
- not on single-family private residential property
- not on school ground
- photo decent quality, not tilted
- no people in photo
- nothing ‘wrong’ with the photo (just as putting your dog in the picture)
- no car licence plates in the photo
- decent title
- decent enough description
- does not already exist as a wayspot (even if not visible in Pogo)
I can explain this in three words:
Reviewers are human.
The longer version is that errors get made, and things that shouldn’t have been accepted slip through. Other players then see those things and copy them, and are then surprised when their attempt is (correctly) rejected.
The one from Germany isn’t eligible either, it’s common infrastructure plus nature reserves here are not meant for exploration. Human activities there are heavily restricted to prevent damage, and while you can visit them if you stick to the paths (and people do), people shouldn’t be encouraged to.
