I am a bot. (Info / Contact)

Sentient.

Jesus, if she actually runs again...

Look I will vote for any decent female candidate for President if I agree with her views/platform. I will never vote for a Clinton again.

again

Be honest, did you get blue balled?

if she actually runs again

Last I checked some analysts are figuring the Dem field will be blessed with over 30 candidates. Mommy should be one.

It’s her turn.

If 2020 is trump vs clinton again the reeeing will blot out the sun.

Why didn't you vote for Stein, then?

Cuz that bitch is crazy. I voted for Johnson because I hate you all.

Cuz that bitch is crazy.

I know, she's the best 😍😍😍

Unironically the only person more crazy than daddy.

I don't know, Gary Johnson was giving him a run for his money!

Naw, Green Momma and Trump were the crazies. Johnson’s inability to name foreign places was cute, but he just didn’t pull off the crazy vibe like the others.

Gary jhonson was on drug 24/24 and he was still a better candidate than crystal grandma.

Because I'm being controlled by the wifi!

I hear Elizabeth Warren is running. Your chance for vote for the first Native American President

I actually would vote for her. That lady's got a set on her.

her

I can guarantee you there's no fiction out there in which two female presidential candidates running against each other in 12 years try to outdo one another on the national stage with progressively more insane breast-augmentation surgeries. Reality will outpace fiction, and only a few dreamers will have seen it coming.

Imagine being such a fucking normoid you actually vote in the united states.

Based Republican.

That’s right Republicans. Own the libs by not voting plz.

Unlikely. Last I checked it was the 22 year old lefties that had honest to God anxiety about voting and abstained.

Republicans don't vote when their scooter breaks down or their dementia finally kills them.

How do you get...

Thank goodness the power of radical centrism protects from such things.

Lucky for the entire universe, trollx is not a good representation of young people overall.

Statistically, young people don't vote. It's one of the few blessings that Rs can hold onto.

I thought you we're an American?

I am.

So no vote for pizzashill?

No incels running for office

Where's a Brett Kavanaugh when you need one? :(

Drinking beer I assume

How is mommy's basement?

Ok.

Can confirm

rent free

No. Voting is wrong. When someone tells me they voted I smile, but inside I'm laughing at what an idiot they are.

My vote for Prop 69: "Should /u/CulturalYogurt shove Railroad Spikes up his ass?" Is a firm YES

Hawt

based

I refuse to vote until Huey along is avenged.

The kingfish can

FDR did it

Kaiserreich is a shit game and even worse alternate history tbh

This is true but irrelevant to the fact that Huey Long was murdered by FDR

Based. Saved America

Sinclair Lewis, shouldn’t you be busy being dead?

W👁ke

Did you know that Huey Long was a real person

Did you know that no one gives a shit about Huey Long unless it’s because of KR

All the King's Men tho

It's an impossible scenario but fuck you, it's fun as fuck

Feels kind of like the anime version of WW2

I think that happened like 10 seconds after he got shot.

Can't wait for the release of Pokémon: Let's Go, Democrat! and Pokémon: Let's Go, Republican!

Pokémon: Democrat Zapphyre and Republican Ruby. Groudon confirmed GOP mascot and climate change denier, Kyogre is the saint patron of hippy-dippy liberal surfers, and of course, Rayquaza brings the thunder of radical centrism.

haha centrist green like weed haha

Deoxys is the Russians

Has there ever something that crashed and burned so hard as Pokemon Go?

It was literally everywhere for like 2-3 weeks ,and then it feels like it just disappeared off the face off the earth.

Crash and burn is an interesting way to describe an app that as of this summer was raking in 2.5 million dollars a day

You know, just like those other complete failures - Angry Birds, that farming simulator. I stopped hearing about them, so obviously the only plausible conclusion is they went bankrupt and the dev teams quit on life in a mass suicide party.

The bartender with the biggest tits at my favorite bar likes to play pokemon on her break

that's the only time I've seen it in the last year

The revenue tax on Angry Birds is paying for Finland's social democratic programs to this very day.

ah man, 2.5 million a day? jealous...

tomagatchi, furby, that asian dude who played for the knicks.

It's still extremely popular and pulls in a ton of money. Niantic finally got its shit together about a year ago and started doing things that actually motivate people to play.

I haven't played it since the beginning what changed?

I believe they added in Gen 2-Gen 3 pokemon as well as battling besides a gym. Last I heard they were working on trading as well.

But yeah a huge drop off happened when they shut down all the PokeMap sites while their ingame tracker was horribly busted. Not to mention people using Lures in obscure places to rob people

Wow never heard of the lure robbing. Doubt it is fun to play because I probably have no areas anywhere near me

Yeah it didn't happen too much but just enough for people to be concerned. I think they caught the kids who were robbing people cause they just posted up in the same spot.

I totally regret not going out there and robbing those kids.

Gen 4 is currently being slowly rolled out

  • they've implemented raids and rehauled gyms, plus added more gyms and stops (they're currently piloting a program where players can request more stops)
  • they've increased the maximum coin limit you can get from holding gyms and made it easier to acheive
  • they've released the past three gens and a small part of gen 4 (gen 4 is currently about to be fully released)
  • they've implemented weather and made the biomes less indicative of what you'll find
  • they've implemented shiny pokemon (a lot of them are released during special events and 'community day)
  • they do a ton of events, including some reoccurring ones like 'community day' (once a month on a weekend a particular pokemon spawns everywhere, it's much easier to find a shiny version, and if you evolve one during that time it gets a special move)
  • they've implemented trading and friends
  • probably the biggest one imo- they've added quests that you get by spinning pokestops. if you do at least one every day then in seven days you can catch a legendary or rare pokemon. there are also occasionally 'special quests' that require a lot more work that get you a mythical or unreleased pokemon
  • they recently connected the game to google fit so eggs hatch while you walk, even if you don't have the game open. they have extra rewards for meeting walking goals

I'm probably missing out on a few because they totally changed the game. I think Niantic forgot about the 'V' in MVP when they released it. Though you can probably only get the maximum amount of fun out of it if you live in an urban area, walk a lot, and are active in your area's community (and that community isn't full of dicks; I've heard some stories and seen some shit where I used to live).

Ok, now I've gotta hear these stories. Snally story time is the best story time

It's nothing too exciting. There were some hardcore players where I used to live, including one guy I shared an alleyway with. He seemed to be under the impression that the gym in the alleyway was 'his', and he'd spend ridiculous amounts of time and energy trying to keep it, even well after he'd gotten the limit of coins you get from it. I would battle in the gym knowing that I wouldn't be able to take it just to piss him off. When two other gyms were added to a public place, he'd sit on a bench there WELL into the night just waiting for people to try and take the gyms so that he could quickly get them back. I'd sometime come over there at around 1 or 2am and see him sitting there, waiting to make sure that nobody would kick him out of the gym. There was literally no reason for him to do this other than to be an asshole. The combat mechanics are incredibly boring (and were even worse back then iirc), so it's not like he was deriving any enjoyment from the game. He simply wanted whatever amount of power was afforded to him by holding a city block's worth of power in a casual mobile game. The experience (and all of the raiding bugs) turned me off to the meta and social aspects of the game until I moved.

Aside from that, I've heard of people getting the cops called on them because they took "someone's" gyms, fights break out, lots of stories of people who form 'exclusive' groups and don't let anyone else raid with them, the kind of shit that you'd expect from a thirteen-year-old and not adults. Apparently some areas have a really toxic culture surrounding the game.

Hooly shit you are right about that. I'm a mod of a local discord and there's constant drama and people fracturing into splinter groups over the most petty things.

Our larger group cooperates with other DC area discords to print stickers to give away every Community Day. Except this time we missed the deadline to say we were participating, so the other planners all said "we don't like their stupid design anyway" and are printing their own design and not even telling anyone it's not the "official" DMV design and... Hoping no one notices I guess?

wtf? How can people be so petty over a casual game, let alone on an even that's supposed to bring people together to have fun? The idea that this is happening in DC is pretty funny too; have any of the splits been over political stuff?

I'm lucky that the community in the area I live in now is really laid-back, and I've been having a ton of fun playing it as a result. The game's a great way to socialize and learn more about where you live if the scene isn't tainted by petty shit like what you mentioned.

The main group I play with isn't even in the discord I moderate lol. We're a MD county and I mostly play in DC with a much smaller group around Gallaudet. The other mods mostly stick to smaller groups too in order to avoid drama.

It's almost never political except for the one weirdo who's always posting Trump memes out of the blue. A lot of it is honestly either extremely Not Online people who aren't used to the light jabbing that constantly takes place online and take everything personally, or people who have way too much time on their hands and are super possessive like the guy you described. A lot of players are older people. Boomer age even and are often retired and have tons of time to play and like that it gets them out of the house.

Our biggest drama is someone who has actually been anonymously sending DMs to people naming one particular player and saying she's going to die and even posting her address on Reddit and on The Silph Road database. Also posting porn with her face photoshopped on it. We still haven't figured out who it is but she's been laying low since then :(

Posts on r/Drama and mods a Pokemon Go discord. Your dick must be covered in friction burns at this point.

Well yeah obviously

That's bizarre. I wonder what makes one area like that and another more laid-back.

Jesus Christ. has anyone tried to get the cops involved?

I mean the other group is just more chill and also far more knowledgeable about the game. Smaller groups do tend to self-regard better in my experience. It started as a server for people who raid on Gallaudet campus and slowly expanded into the surrounding area and honestly I feel grateful to be part of it.

As for the other drama, not only has she gone to law enforcement, her dad works for a PI firm. But no luck so far. We have our suspicions who it is but no proof.

Nerd.

I feel honored to have a big snally post

Snally is one of those female mobile gamers that we all have to cyberbully to earn our toxic masculinity badges.

Pokemon Go shove a stick up your ass buddy.

Though you can probably only get the maximum amount of fun out of it if you live in an urban area, walk a lot,

Except for the game constantly thinking I was driving, it was fun to snipe passing gyms while on the bus

it was fun to snipe passing gyms while on the bus

That's always fun, though it sucks that you can't put something in it if you manage to take it down.

Trivia HQ

It was a fad, no doubt. But it made a profit so I wouldn't say it was a failure.

Problem is a lot of mobile game companies have only really got one property and when that's gone they're done (Zynga, King, Rovio, etc). Nintendo has other revenue streams, though.

Please write in Tay for all positions

Voting is for dorks.

I unironically want to eat her loose, hemorrhoidal ass.

My favorite r/drama post ever

Friendly reminder that there no such thing as too drunk or high on PCP to vote!

So retarded she lost to DRUMPT.

To be expected from someone who thinks blacks are super predators.

i was going to vote until i saw this

Please remember to vote early and often!
