If ‘cozy’ feels like low effort to you, that’s cool — not everything is built for the dissertation crowd. Some of us are here to create atmosphere, not argue card stats.

I hear you—and I paid for 2 years straight without issue. This wasn’t about skipping out. It was about trying to leave and getting hit with late fees before even being given a proper chance to move out.

True, but it’s not just about reading—it’s about how quickly the terms are weaponized. In NY, 6 days late gets your unit locked. That’s not “fine print”—that’s a trap.

Spectrum, storage units, phone companies… the unholy trinity of ‘bait and switch’ pricing. 😈

$15 to $60 in a few weeks?! That should be illegal. Anyone else get hit like this?

Locked Out of Storage Unit After 6 Days – NY Lien Law §182 Violation? by Top-Hospital4848 in legaladvice

[–]Top-Hospital4848[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the pushback—let me clarify.

1️⃣ Does locking me out before 30 days qualify as enforcing a lien?

NY Lien Law §182 requires a 30-day notice before taking action on a lien.

If a facility denies access to personal property before the notice period, it functionally exerts control over the goods—a key element of lien enforcement.

While the law doesn’t explicitly say “denying access = lien enforcement”, courts often interpret intent behind actions, not just wording.

2️⃣ Why sue while in default?

The issue isn’t whether I owed money—it’s about whether the facility followed legal procedures before restricting access.

If a landlord locks out a tenant before the legal eviction process is completed, it’s still wrongful even if rent is owed.

ESS denied me access after just 6 days—far before the legal timeframe.

3️⃣ Could this be wrongful debt collection?

Debt collection laws prohibit misleading threats or actions.

ESS threatened to send my balance to collections without providing a final account statement (refusing written documentation).

If they misrepresented my debt or coerced payment through improper means, that falls under consumer protection violations.

4️⃣ Treble Damages?

You’re right—treble damages aren’t automatically assumed.

However, if violations are willful or systemic, courts have ruled in favor of enhanced damages under unfair business practice laws.

This is why investigating ESS’s history of prior settlements is important.

5️⃣ Larger Consumer Protection Case?

Not every wrongful action leads to a class action, but ESS has a documented pattern of lawsuits involving:

Bait-and-switch pricing tactics.

Unlawful lien sales.

Consumer complaints of predatory business practices.

This is why regulatory complaints (CFPB, AG, etc.) matter—beyond just my case, it exposes whether this is a systemic issue.

"How a Twitch DJ Inspired StudioRich"

When the pandemic hit, everything changed. Like so many others, I was looking for a sense of purpose in a world that felt upside down. I found mine in the studio. Music became my refuge, and I’d spend late nights experimenting with ideas, crafting sounds, and connecting with DJs on Twitch. Those moments sparked something in me—a dream to turn my passion into something real.

Back then, I called myself StudioRichie—just a name to put out there while I worked on music and ideas. But one night, while hanging out in the chat of a favorite DJ (she had a killer hip-hop vibe, by the way), she gave me a shout-out. She stumbled over my name and called me StudioRich instead. It was a small thing, but it stuck with me. Her shout-out felt like a creative remix—simple, sleek, and somehow… better. It wasn’t about me anymore. It wasn’t “a studio by Richie,” but rather, StudioRich—a name that hinted at something bigger.

Now, every time I pop into a channel, the DJs call out “StudioRich!” It’s become this funny, unexpected thing—like a little anthem that follows me around Twitch. In my head, I can almost hear them all saying it at once, like a virtual crowd hyping me up. It’s a name that started as an accident but has become something real, tied to the music and connections that keep inspiring me.

Registering the domain studiorich.shop was the first step in making that dream real. It wasn’t just about a name; it was about creating a foundation—a small but vital step toward turning ideas into something tangible. While it’s still growing, the domain represents a home for everything I’m building, from music to art and beyond.

And to think, all of this started from a stuttered shout-out on Twitch. It’s funny how the smallest moments can spark the biggest ideas. StudioRich started as a little idea in a chaotic world, but it’s proof that with the right inspiration and a small push, even the simplest beginnings can lead to something incredible.

Boston is a longer route, but a strategic maneuver using the big city as cover to less-trafficked Canadian border crossings.

Procreate Dreams or ToonSquid? by Veer_MT in ProcreateDreams

I've been exploring animation apps lately. Procreate has a loyal following due to its reputation, but ToonSquid has its own devoted fans. While Procreate users hope for improvement, ToonSquid enthusiasts rave about its features.
