    Two things.

    First of all, Pokémon Go somehow turned out to be more popular than expected (I don't know how they expected anything less.) and the servers can't really keep up with the players. As such, the global rollout of the game is going to become much slower than previously thought.

    Secondly, don't try to download the game if you live in a region where it is not available yet. Despite being possible, this is one of the contributing factors to the server stress and people have been banned for it. Don't do it.

    I'm really mad because the app needs 2 gigs of RAM and my phone only has 1 :confused: Oh well...

    I want Pokemon go gay meetups! Be fun to meet people who are gay who are into Pokemon and geeky stuff :3 I walk with my best pals, and plan to do some exploring near a mall where I work. Living in Orlando, I am going to Animal Kingdom on Tuesday and I should see hordes of Pokemon there!

    I just came back from Anime Midwest and there were a ton of Pokemon Go players. I actually saw an Ash cosplayer catching a pokemon in front of Olivia Olson (voice of Marceline from Adventure Time) and he was sitting in the front row. I thought that was funny because he took a picture. :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    Unfortunately, I was dumb and accidentally turned off my location right when I got to the con so I couldn't play. I didn't realize until I got back home. I did, however, catch most of my pokemon in my basement. I caught a pidgey on the bus on the way to the convention. Hoping to try to catch more soon, now that I figured out what was wrong with my game. :slight_smile:

    I like it a lot and it might actually make me start going outside again. I currently have a charmander, 2 cubones, an eevee, a kakuna, a pidgey, a paras, a female nidoran, and a male nidoran.

    Niantic inc. implementing a meetup system in pokemon go would be a great idea because they could make it where you can battle and trade with other people you meet up with.

    Am I the only one around here that could see this app getting remove/banned from app/play store? Considering it could/is the cause of future/current accidents...

    On another note, I don't find pokemon go exciting at all. The fact is, pokemon has NEVER interested me in the first place.

    I would love to play it... If it had been released in Sourth America. Let's only hope it doesn't end up as Miitomo.

    Nobody's gonna acknowledge that there was a hot piece of cosplayer booty?

    I walked out of work at 11:15 PM and there was a group of pokemon go players wandering outside. There were actually a few around the town. I then walked/biked home to catch pokemon through the neighborhoods. I'm almost at level 5!

    Eh, I've met hotter cosplayers xD

    I would say he was pretty average. Though, there was this one Misty crossplayer...

    My sister made me walk around the neighborhood today with her playing Pokemon Go. It was so hot outside! >.< She said we'll try again in the evening when it's cooler. ^^'

    Hm, then I wonder how my sister managed to download it. :confused:
