No thanks. We don't need another go at company stores.
You load 16 tons, what do you get? Another day older and deeper in debt St. Peter, don't you call me 'cause I can't go I owe my soul to the company store

The mods will come very quickly. I'm sure there will even be a few on launch day. They took a long time to release the creation kit for skyrim which made making mods much more difficult, but the community still put out a lot just using modding tools from previous games.
YouTube is much harder to replace because the hosting costs of videos are so much higher than something like reddit.
I posted one very detailed negative review on apartments.com I think it was and it was deleted lol... not sure if my complex had a hand in getting it removed or what, but there was no valid reason to delete it.
And the trend downwards from Sims 3 continues...
During one of the lease renewals they had over 20 units unfilled listed on their website. Usually they have 3-7 or less. I brought this fact up and they still didn't care.
Its just insane there's no laws to help with these situations. They're becoming extremely commonplace.
As far as I can tell in my jurisdiction there is no recourse for reporting them aside from suing for not upkeeping the pool because it isn't something necessary like water, heating/cooling, etc. Suing defeats the purpose because I don't want to move and win or lose I definitely wouldn't be able to stay there after the case.
A tenant union could be useful long term maybe but it puts a target on your back just like suing does.
It didn't used to be that bad. I moved in at $700/month back in 2015 or so and now its going to be up to about $1500. It used to raise $50 each renewal which was reasonable but then covid absolutely skyrocketed the prices of everything.
Moving may be the only option long term, but I'm not ready yet so I was wondering if people had techniques for dealing with these companies so that you aren't just instantly dismissed.
I don't want to move though. I just want a fair deal.
Pretty sure you're in a very small minority. I've practically never gone to news sites. I've just found articles through reddit.
This is a constant cycle.
