A man in Auburn, New York has become the first person to report a car accident that took place due to Pokemon Go. The man was playing the new mobile title when he drove his car off the road and hit a tree. Although the car has been rendered totally nonfunctional, the man was fortunately not injured and nobody else was impacted by the crash.
The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.
There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.
Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
Pokémon GO fans are waking up on Wednesday morning a little more nervous. Niantic, the developers of the augmented reality game, has decided to sell the game
You can't play Pokemon Go in China, but I needed a digital souvenir.
Freakin idiot. Seriously, generally using a phone while driving is a dumb idea and warrants the question of whether you have a few screws loose. Playing a game while driving is stupidity on an astronomical level. It was only a tree this time but next time it could be a kid.
Why would you even admit to the reason you got into an accident being because you can't prioritize the safety of yourself and others on the street over a game? I'm glad no one was injured, but there should be a ticket given for reckless endangerment.
Never go full retard
People are dumb
