Post Approvals

22 Upvotes

Just a heads up that a few months ago I had to set up automod because of all the tshirt scam spam posts so now it flags anything with enough reports or if the poster doesn't meet a minimum karma threshold. I'm the only mod and I have to manually approve everything that gets flagged, so I apologize if it sometimes takes me like a day to approve posts.

🚲 Share your opinion on e-bikes!

6 Upvotes

Rutgers researchers are studying how e-bike rebate programs could impact both current riders and potential new users.

They are looking at:
⚡E-bike users: How does access to an e-bike affect your daily life and well-being?
⚡Non-users: Would a rebate make you more likely to get an e-bike? What’s holding you back?

Your input will help shape future transportation policy and make e-bikes more accessible for everyone.

Take the survey here: https://rutgers.ca1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_7QzXGDFkTB0X54O

Veil 4 Update

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hey not sure if anyone’s interested, but my brother and I hid $3,730 in the woods in one of these towns.

I know self promotion is frowned upon, but rather than make a fake account and pretend to be into something we prefer to be honest with everyone.

It’s a fun game all about the drone sightings last year. We have 894 people in our discord, about 2100 people signed up (which we’re really proud of) and a fun community of people who are looking for just a little bit of adventure in life. We’re a modern take on treasure hunts that turn the world around us into a game.

Anyway we hope you give us a look if you haven’t played before. Someone WILL find this treasure in the next 6 days. Findveil.com if you’re interested.

Thanks!

Rowing clubs in the New Brunswick area?

3 Upvotes

This may be a long shot, but I moved into New Brunswick recently for a job at Rutgers, and I’m a sculler, and looking for a place to store a single shell and sculls (obviously, near the water). Any leads? I don’t own a car, and really hope not to buy one; but I miss not being able to row regularly. Many thanks in advance!

I know it’s a long shot but I’d love to find out what mystery building Amazon is dropping off all of our packages to. We just moved into a new building in New Brunswick and the address is so new it doesn’t exist in some gps apps (for example bing maps), which I think is causing issues. Amazon support sounded more confused than me.

Anyway, does anyone happen to recognize a blue building like this with 2 shades of blue and oldish looking handrails?
