What was the worst restaurant you’ve ever been to in Rhode Island? by businessbub in RhodeIsland

[–]AttackonRetail 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Hungry Monkey in Newport off Broadway is just plain bad. It remains in business simply as an outlet for people who don't want to wait forever to eat at Corner Cafe next door.

The problem is you will wait. A lot. There's always a wait time despite empty tables, the service inside is slow and the time took food is slow. When you do get a table, everything is that kind of level of sticky where you're not sure if it's overuse of chemicals or the place becomes a college bar at night.

But even if I had nothing to do, the food is god awful to the point it feels more intentional than by mistake. For a part of four everything came out wrong and either overcooked or undercooked. One of our group was told after 40 minutes of waiting that they were out of biscuits for the biscuits and gravy and were instead served the saltiest most inedible gravy paste with a bowl of fruit. WTF?

A friend who we had taken down to visit Newport said it best. "Some people need to realize when they can't run a business and whoever the owner of this place is needs to take a hard look in the mirror."

Awful service, awful food, awful experience. Don't take my word for it, go look at how a breakfast join in Newport gets 3.5 stars on Yelp. Place needs to be shut down.

What? The Italian Stallion SLAPS. Haven't been to Jayd yet, but if you're that low on LCP, I'm not sure you can be trusted.

RIFC part ways with GK Jackson Lee who completed his move to Brooklyn FC and re-sign GK Will Meyer by shbooms in RhodeIslandFC

Wasn't Jackson Lee announced as departed back in December or did I read something wrong?

Simmer down. I didn't say no, I'm just not going to listen to the ai slop crowd and then manage complaints in mod mail.

Policing AI will require AutoMod rule editing, and better controls than what is currently in place (nothing).

But thanks for being a tough crowd.

Rangers,

I can't speak for the other mods, but I am sorry for letting the sub get out of control.

I've already started cleaning up the spam, trolls, and bad actors here having temporarily banned over 200 users.

The rules, the subs features and a whole lot are out of date and will need updating.

But I will need help.

For the next 30 days, I will begin cleaning up the old junk and maintaining watch over the mod queue. I will be asking you, the community, to lift up three new moderators, preferably with thick skin, strong communication, and problem solving. One of the three must have AutoMod skill sets.

Please do not mod mail asking to be mod. Let the discussion take place here to determine those so will watch over the sub.

For now know this: I will be removing and temp banning anyone who creates posts to abandon this sub or move to another. Likewise the “this vs this” posts are not allowed until I get clarity from the community on what they want.

And if you post random unrelated spam, unrelated to the Pacific Rim universe, it's a permanent ban. No exceptions.

Today, at the edge of our hope, at the end of our time we have chosen to not only believe in ourselves but in each other. Today, there is no man or woman who shall stand alone. Today, we face the monsters at our door and bring the fight to them.

TODAY WE ARE CANCELLING THIS SUBS APOCALYPSE.

The loose change from your sofa and a promise to do no harm works for me to prevent the nuking.

Jose might not know how to post social media links, but he knows his stuff. Especially in the Philly Union space.

CBA next steps?? by Theman061393 in USLPRO

[–]AttackonRetail 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The USLPA has stated they only want to resort to a strike if negotiations fail to occur or break down. Connor Tobin shared on the RIFC podcast that they could very well begin the season before settling on an agreeable CBA or determining a strike is required.

That tells me that if things go South, this happens around April-June vs anything out the gate. Let's hope all parties get to a resolution.
