updating old Poi files with new info

 

Hello everyone,

another lets get organized tip.

If you have a new store location that you would like to see in a POI file, please send it to the original author of the file.

If you recreate the file and I upload it then we have two files, not only that but then the original author losses credit as the original author if I have to choose one file over the other.

I think that we all like to get credit for our work so adding a note at the bottom of the description giving credit to additional helpers works to serve both if not all participants of the building of the file.

This means that if you are a Poi contributor you should have your contact info turned on so that people can send you locations that may be new.

Thanks everyone for all your hard work, we are getting quite a catalog of Poi Files.

POI Files

1. I'm sure you recognize this, there are over 830 POI files listed on this site. I was going to wait until we closed in on 1,000 to mention it, but since your brought it up.....
2. Maybe you want to update your opening article that states there are over 1,000,000 pois listed. It could be like the old McDonalds where they kept updating the number of hamburgers sold on their signs. Have no idea of the number, but it must be huge.

I am a flake

Just what you did Bob, make a POI file and submit it to the site.
Miss POI knows that she is a flake and sometimes holds off on giving out badges to those that are deserving due to that flakiness.

It is ok to poke me in the butt and say, "hey you, Miss Poi give me my badge" I have earned it!!!

lol

I dont want to do that, This is your place and I am too polite to be bad.. I just want sure how to get one.. I know you like all of us, Cant complain anyways, you gave me special reconiation a few times already.. What more can one ask for..

I want to do so much more and am getting some corrections for my poi files, I am putting them in as soon as I get it and will be uploading it (Using the edit) to update my existing files, that way we dont have more than 1 file going around!!!

GREAT WORK as always!!!

Do we qualify for a watch or an automobile once we go over 25 POI's? I'll forgo the automobile, but how about a nice set of golf clubs instead? smile
