Looking for some help here. I’m interested in nominating this… Greyhound station for a POI.
Criteria:
It’s definitely a transportation hub a place to move people from here to there. Something I think would fit nicely in the game(s).
Any ideas will be welcomed.
Best,
Jamal
Seems like a typical bus station to me, and all the bus stations I’m aware of are in the database, so I’d vote favourably on it.
I have always been curious why they’re eligible under the socialise category though. I guess the logic is that we use them to go and visit people? I always think of them more along the lines of being useful from an exploration aspect though. It’s nice to hop on a bus, enjoy the scenery and visit places. Either way though, I still see them as being eligible under the current criteria.
I’ve gotten a few Greyhound stations to vote on, and I’ve approved them all. They’re transit hubs and may be a great starting place to start exploration. You may be able to socialize with other passengers, or, if you’re dropping or picking someone up, do a little socialization with them before leaving.
This is not a straight forward question. What Jamal isn’t telling you is that he is nominating the SIGN at the bus station and then plans to come back later and nominate the station separately after the SIGN is accepted.
The station is not a bad submission. The sign meets no criteria.
If the sign was accepted then surely that would be an anchor for the station.
Nominating the station would then be a duplicate.
I agree but Jamal and I have had this conversation about churches and even this specific bus station multiple times. If he can get the community to approve a sign and the building, he will do so.
Actually not true!!! The building is very bland and non-descript. So I’m using the sign as something that is actually interesting.
If you have evidence that he is doing this on multiple occasions and also evidence that he has been made aware this is against wayfarer criteria / rules then it should be reported as Abuse and warnings / suspension given?
He has talked about his philosophy on churches and church signs both being POI openly on his podcast.
My feelings on Signfarer:
I am not a listener… and doubt many of the reviewers would be either.
As reviewers we can only go on what is put in front of us, the only options are…
This is not meant to be disbelieving you but more a “what can we do about it” 
.
So let’s see what a reviewer would see for this. What does the nomination look like? If he has had it rejected, we should see the screenshots like we ask everyone else to show us.
He hasn’t stated it has been rejected, it’s in Nomination Support.
I think Jamal is trying to get a feeling from the community about what they think by just posting very basic info; not the first time Jamal has done this.
I’m sad you are not a listener. We don’t advertise here on the forum, but I can assure you people do listen week over week.
We appreciate all the people that do tune in and send us messages on all the ways they can contact us.
As far as the rest. @seaprincesshnb and I have had an on again off again - Which is fine, but I’m not trying to nomination the sign and the building. But if you are that good at reading my mind and predicting my future actions. I’ll hire you as my assistant. Because I could use one!! /s
@DTrain2002 I love you keep track of my posts that closely. Thank you! I’d love to know your thoughts on the the greyhound station? I personally think it would be a slam dunk? What say you?
The 4th bullet point is a bit interesting. If the criteria is not presently clear and might (or might not) allow a sign and a building; how can the first 3 points even come into play?
They are 4 separate options, not a list to do them all 
I am trying to look at it as a reviewer that has received this to review.
I do not know Jamal and the review would not inform us that it is one of his.
I would accept the sign as an anchor for the station then hopefully spot any reveiw for the station itself and mark as duplicate.
So as a Reviewer there is nothing I can do to stop people trying to do this apart from trying to be vigilant and it is likely that some would get through.
Well, it has been rejected at least once before according to a post he made here last October.
It seems like many people are not against a bus station as a nomination so if it has failed on appeal or on resubmit, then something about the way he’s nominating it needs to be improved. So can we see that?
