Knooppunten / Junction discussion

So the latest AMA gave away that trailmarkers only can be accepted if they have a title and aren't just a pole with a number on it. The Dutch community was divided by this statement, making the discussion even worse, costing many players agreements, because sometimes they DO are accepting and sometimes DON'T. I actually rather skip them now.

'Knooppunten' are points mostly in nature and in The Netherlands mostly cycling related (because we're a cycling country, but there are also some for walking and in some area's I've even spotted some for horse riding)

Cyclers use them to navigate a route to cycle. It's very similar to walking missions. All 'Knooppunt' signs or poles are waypoints part of the route. There are many routes made for the people, but online on sites like fietsroutenetwerk.nl it's also possible to manifacture your own route based on the waypoints registred there. It tells how to cycle and how long it takes, as seen on the screenshot. (I plan on making banners from the popular routes in my area)


The screenshot also shows the most seen forms of the signs. The one with map included is the most populair one and is most of the time accepted. However the poles and smaller signs are open for discussion and are harder to properly rate and end up in queune longer because it's skip material.

It would be nice to have a propper comment from Niantic in order to end this discussion in how to rate them.
