There's this famous restaurant in Malaysia, called Magenta.
Anyhow, a couple of days ago, the owner of this restaurant made a post in Facebook, on their official business page, telling Pokemon GO players in the area to fuck off. Suffice to say, the whole thing quickly backfired against the owner and the establishment. The following is what the owner wrote along with the image post:
"We serve dinners, drinks and snacks...real food..and real drinks..for real people and their loved ones!
For those who go around looking for virtual reality creatures in a made believe cyber world, please spare a thought for those who appreciate and want to spend time with their loved ones, friends and business associates!
We therefore would like to appeal to those of you who walk around looking for make believe creatures to not intrude on those who are having dinner drinks, having a conversation and basically interacting with a real human!
So if walking around with your HP looking for furballs..well no one will stop you...they might chuckle at your stupidity is your thing..Who are we to complain but please stay away and do not interupt the dining experience of those who have their 2 feet firmly on the ground!"
Within 2 days, the whole thing exploded out of proportion, invoking the ire of the local netizens, which began with admonishing the restaurant owner, eventually spiraling into a troll fest, which caused a surge of 1 Star ratings on the business page.
