    Why does every article fail to mention that the ingame map only updates once every 3 years or so? And that this griefing is most likely done once per person, until they find out that the game isn’t updated? (Because it’s not sensational)

      That doesn’t change the fact that it causes problems for openstreetmap

        It does not. But it means they are trying to limit the damage caused by griefers, and moreso than just displaying a popup message with “please don’t grief openstreetmaps” or something. Imagine how bad it would be if changes to openstreetmaps actually were immediately imported into the game…
