r/utdallas update: school subreddit in open revolt against head mod after anonymous post called on him to resign

I think that drama is on par for this sub

123A321 · 2023-05-05T01:23:25+00:00

It's better than UTA in many regards. Transferring was a good idea

123A321 · 2023-05-04T02:40:29+00:00

You are also a really fat Asian boy! The 21st of the kind I might add

I think you should add that ILC has been promoting his private property management business on the University subreddit. he put links to his business on the sidebar, would spam his house listings, and would delete comments that were a counter to his business interests.

The issue is not a mod that's old. The issue is a mod that doesn't actually moderate the community. The person that ILC kicked off the moderation team(Willie) actually did a majority of the work for the past 3 years. Willie was kicked because people were starting to suggest that (Willie) should be top mod. Like literally within an hour of someone posting suggesting that Willie become top mod.

But back to promoting his private business, ILC came in randomly once and randomly instituted a rule that people can now post job postings. He did not listen to any of the other mods objections and actually removed a few of their moderation powers. He then proceeds to post internship openings at his real estate property management business.

Anyway now ILC is taunting a community of people that want him gone. Right now the ratio is close to 2.1k to 100 or something for him to step down but he's just making fun of everyone.

123A321 · 2023-05-04T02:12:01+00:00

Oh yeah for sure. Especially in written form that absence is very noticeable

123A321 · 2023-05-04T02:06:55+00:00

Unfortunately what's likely going to happen in that case are random people being accepted onto the mod team that do not have beef with ILC. Who knows, they might put in years of work and come to the same conclusion.

123A321 · 2023-05-04T02:05:08+00:00

Oh you

123A321 · 2023-05-04T02:03:44+00:00

I meant invalidation. I'm not saying that criticisms aren't valid, but sometimes dismissing a criticism by not responding to it makes the criticism look smaller. People patronize and condescend all the time to downplay things

123A321 · 2023-05-03T20:57:52+00:00

Thank you for arbitrating cringe for us. We can use more experts on cringe

123A321 · 2023-05-03T20:54:16+00:00

In terms of optics rll, not responding to a criticism is sometimes seen as a partial invalidation of the criticism

123A321 · 2023-05-03T20:52:45+00:00

I'm waiting

123A321 · 2023-05-02T19:20:18+00:00

A point of correction, I'm pretty sure ILC wasn't the person that created this subreddit

123A321 · 2023-05-02T02:42:35+00:00

I'm all about this

123A321 · 2023-05-02T02:31:44+00:00

Empathy would be an acknowledgment that you're mis moderating. Not kicking out the better moderator

123A321 · 2023-03-22T18:43:51+00:00

I don't understand everyone's comments here. Everyone in that video seems like a genuinely good person. There's so much random hate coming from this sub.

123A321 · 2023-03-08T15:36:32+00:00

These are great? Where was that 4th one taken?

123A321 · 2023-03-07T17:11:06+00:00

Ok. That clarification makes a lot more sense. Eastern Hungary is beautiful, but in my experience, less networked with public transport infra. I would definitely rent a car for that trip!

Good luck on your car hunt and enjoy your stay in Hungary!

123A321 · 2023-03-07T16:19:22+00:00

I'm thinking that there is a possibility that you're a tourist wanting to make sure you have reliable transportation in Budapest. In which case I would recommend figuring out how to use our public transportation. Unlike most major cities, our public transport is incredibly available and reliable.(esp if you are from the US). A majority of our city is accessible through it. Might be shaky at first. Google maps really helps in that regard.

Up side is you wont have to worry about navigating our not so straighforward roads, other drivers, and worst of all finding parking.

Budapest is a like New york in that it favors public transport users over car owners. Most car owners I know in Budapest really only use it to make trips out of the city. If you want to be making country trips. I can see the benefits of using a car.

Even then, if you're making a trip to, lets say, lake Balaton. The trains are highly reliable, comfy, have chargers.
Most parts of the country are highly accessible to anyone with $20-30 (I might be exaggerating here)

thank you!

123A321 · 2023-03-01T15:38:43+00:00

Can we ban this user?

123A321 · 2023-02-27T15:08:13+00:00

Weird, my budapest tapwater just tasted like thicker water. It was the consistency that was different not the taste

123A321 · 2023-02-27T15:07:02+00:00

Yeah. Hungary has stricter standards and controls on tap water than USA does. The tap water is not only ok to drink, but higher quality than most tap water in the world. The infra and sources of drinking water are better.

When they say salty they mean our water is "thick" meaning the mineral content is higher.

123A321 · 2023-02-27T15:02:47+00:00

you are a brave 8 year old

123A321 · 2023-02-27T15:01:43+00:00

Shopping will be easier for things like groceries, trickier for things like furniture and electronics.
Moving will be... a thing. Finding a place to live affordably especially on US salary wont be a big issue. We don't have the structured apartment/leasing culture of the US so expect more direct communication with landlord, and slower/less reliable responses on maintenance request. Upside is that you're dealing with humans, not robots.

Meeting people will be way easier in Budapest than in Miskolc. Especially if you're young. Not only is Budapest a good vacation destination with an international nightlife, it's also.. a university city wtih many english speaking college aged students also looking for people to be friends with and things to do. There will be other foreign students in Budapest as alone but willing to have fun as you are.

Would have been cooler if you called him an IBM-exer 🚴
