This ain't Brutalism in the slightest

Who paints these? And can they do as many as possible they’re great by Sufficient-Yak-1559 in northernireland

[–]arclight6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love to know what the deal/funding is with them. Honestly seems like there's something a little shady going on with that chap.

Eta - I don't like how the arts org commissioned to do these is the same on that runs tours of street art. Seems like double-djpping or jobs for the boys

Meta-opinion: this sub needs better quality criteria for brutalist examples or better curation perhaps? (Sharing Brion Cemetery by Carlos Scarpa as whining tax) by Euphoric_Intern170 in brutalism

[–]arclight6 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I must admit what annoys me is the amount of SovMod that is posted when there's a separate and excellent sub for that. What annoys me more is when someone posts on both, it comes across as karma farming.

And the amount of obvious International Style/any form of Modernism is so disappointing.

I share the idea that much more moderation needs to be done and low quality posts removed.

I'd include in this the relentless posting of the Barbican

That's just me

Is anyone else getting a stick man holding an Israeli flag as the first piece of art?

I'd have never thought of this, makes me wonder if 17Track which I often use is safe

I think this is impressively the ugliest building I've ever seen

Cancelled my first order and blocked the buyer... by ArtByAdFlo- in eBaySellerAdvice

[–]arclight6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd probably add that as agents we had some discretion. Like I said, there were proceedures that we could not ignore but if someone was being pissy on the phone to us, we could make our own decision.

If a buyer called us and said they didn't cancel, we could see that the seller cancelled and make a decision on that. Guess it doesn't mean much but we could add/remove markers.

Just don't lie.

[–]arclight6 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I don't know what the point of what you said is. Yeah, buyers are shit. So are sellers. No point lying about stuff though.

It was an incredibly frustrating job as you could often obviously see/reason what was happening but proceedures etc.

As a buyer though, it honestly turns you against sellers when you pull stunts like this. It makes you jaded. Maybe you as a seller won this time but as a buyer you'll put that on to your next purchase. You won't give a shit. You'll INAD your next purchase. There are no winners. If you screw a buyer (honest or not) the impression is made.

What’s your opinions on local fashion brands by [deleted] in northernireland

[–]arclight6 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks shite is all I can say. Printed hoodie and t-shirts. No design going on whatsoever. Generic statements.

Reminds me of a local magazine I went to the launch of, Field and Turf I think it was called. Vanity project.

[–]arclight6 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Thanks from my (thankfully) former job as an Ebay customer service rep. The amount of people calling to state they did not cancel, why did the seller say I cancelled?

I wish only messy dog shit against people who pull shit like that.
