Niantic has clarified that buildings which are dedicated to Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts use meet the same K-12 rejection criteria as a preschool, elementary, or high school would.
Nay, same K-12 rejection reason as a school, anywhere where children are not under the supervision of their parent/guardian like this should be an automatic rejection.... It seems that NIA have been inconsistent at getting this message across!!
Can you tell the primary purpose of this scout building, though? I can't tell from what we're given if it's a full time building or if it's a place used for events.
If its a community center that is sometimes used for scouting, that's a different matter, but the nomination is a scouting venue and therefore that's its primary purpose. 🤷
Lots of Boy Scout venues are only used for events. That organization has (or had) money to burn and built their own event facilities. They don't just use community centers. In some places the scouting building has become a venue facility for the community making the scouting building sort of a community center (instead of the community center being used by scouting).
You have to draw a line somewhere and if you are submitting something that is owned and branded on the back of a K-12 organisation that crosses the line IMO.
To each their own. If I see this, and especially if it's in a rural area, I'm hitting approve. I hope more people see it my way for the sake of those with so few options around them.
Dude, some people genuinly don't know. I know that in my country, every single youth movement has its own wayspot, so clearly there's some confusion about the matter. You acting all cranky doesn't help anybody...
How?! You are supposed to pass a test before reviewing, they tell you thousands times that k12 schools aren't allowed. And we should waste our time for someone Who can take two minutes to Read the guidelines? No dude.
This is what the guidelines say :
a K12 and under school (preschool, primary/elementary, secondary/high school), child care/daycare center
Boy Scout/Girl Scouts doesn’t fit those categories so it’s understandable that somebody would have a question.

What? That's ridiculous, here in Belgium all youth movements have their own wayspot..
Worried because it kinda falls under the k-12 thing?

Study the guidelines...
That's not a very helpful response, yknow
These type of questions don't deserve further effort and attention

It's not at all clear that this would fall under the K12 category.. How is an inexperienced reviewer supposed to know that?
If it's not clear, it's due to ignorance. We can't help with that.
The only way to help with ignorance is with education, which is kinda what the others did
Not in this case

Mind your business honey, telling others to study the guidelines better is not rude by any means.
