Idk if there were any emails about submitting any photo or anything I just don’t have any info about the one card can you guys lmk how I’m supposed to get the one card?

I want to start off with a disclaimer that I don't meant for this to be a character assassination of anyone. I just want to lay out what happened and ask for your opinion on the matter. I will also provide screenshot evidence where I can.

I joined the Uwaterloo Visual Art discord a few years ago and shared my artwork there the entire time without any issues. There was exactly 2 times where a mod/admin replied to my artwork asking for additional actions, as shown below. (I linked the artwork that started these 2 conversations in the caption ,viewer discretion is adviced)

For context, this is the relevant rule in question:

As you can see, these mods gave very reasonable actions and more importantly followed their own rules written in their server's info channel.

The problem began around March-April 2025 when this new person - discord name is Jakob - was elected president. I posted a drawing like how I always do, and he promptly deleted it, then sent me the following message. This is the drawing that prompted the message.

preview.redd.it/ydpx0d0k7dff1.png?width=1484&format=png&auto=webp&s=ee0f3471c2d26a490aea4d58aee304da653dec24

You can imagine when I got this message, I was somewhat confused and speechless. The "people were complaining" is an obvious lie that I found hard to believe because:

1. I never had any complaints/negative comments on my artworks.

2. I don't think 18 year olds that attend university would find that too explicit.

3. I find it a bit too much of a coincidence that people started complaining just as he became president.

Aside from that even if people started complaining, you just explain to them that the poster was FOLLOWING ALL THE SERVER RULES. Then, if it becomes too much of a problem, you would do what a normal person would and change the server rules. Instead, this Jakob individual just deleted my artwork, a clear contrast from the actions from the previous mods.

Following this I did 2 things. I suspect this person might've fall victim to the discord mod complex. Maybe he's self projecting his own insecurities. Or maybe he just had a bad day, I don't know and I didn't care. I didn't reply to that message and ignored it, but I also didn't repost that artwork again and respected his decision.

Then around ~1 month later, I posted another artwork, this time much more tame then the previous deleted one (even though neither one broke any rules). This is the artwork, I'll let you be the judge.

Again, it was promptly deleted, and he sent this message into the art discord.

After that he banned me from the discord. Once again I ask you to scroll up to the rules and be the judge.

So that is my entire story in this discord. Do you think the deletions/ban was justified?

I want to leave off with one additional piece of information. This is the stuff that this person themselves post into the discord. Other people have even called him out on this. Once again, compare that to the rules and to my work, and you be the judge and let me know.

Hi. not gonna defend my fault but ask for some information. Last week, i was driving stopping for red light waiting for green to turn left from sunrise to ottawa.

i noticed the red light camera but not sure if it shoots vehicles taking left turn from sunrise or can i dispute the ticket for lower fine? thanks

Hey! I’m an upcoming first-year and I’m taking BIO 130 this semester. I have Okey Igboeli. Just wondering how the course is, and any tips or tricks that would be helpful to know before-hand!

Alberta student wanting to get into Waterloo CS but I face trouble with one thing. I feel I can manage the grades, but the ECs is where is lack.

As an Albertan I wish to do the Waterloo math and CS contest but I don’t thinks it’s possible in Alberta. Alberta had math AHSMC contest but I think it’s no longer happening. There are no other Reputable math contests.

Im really confused on what to do. What other ECs could I have to help me get into Waterloo CS

Has anyone heard back from Laurier for the MSW regular track starting in Jan 2026?

Hi guys, I live in Barrie and I'll be taking 4 courses at Waterloo this fall as a post degree student. I only intend to do 2 semesters at Waterloo. Do you think it would make sense to take an almost 4 hour commute from Barrie to Waterloo from Monday-Thursday every week considering the fact that my time table is not heavy at all?

Hey folks — just found out my favourite tea house from Toronto is coming to Waterloo next week and hosting a tea tasting + tea ceremony. I’ve been to their events hosted in Toronto and it’s honestly one of the chillest (and nicest) tea experiences I’ve had.

They’re doing a proper traditional tea ceremony too, which is apparently the first time that’s happening in Waterloo/Kitchener?? Kinda rare around here.

Anyway, there are only a few spots left (I think 4?), and I’m thinking of going. If anyone else is into tea or just wants to try something a bit different, lmk — would be fun to go with someone!

Just heard about 7-8 gunshots on Ira Needles in front of the Boardwalk, presuming they came from a car, then heard a car speed off quickly.

Not sure what just happened, but was very distinct in sound and alarming. Hope nobody was hurt.

So I'm headed to grade 11 and so far I think I wanna do computer science. I wanna go to waterloo's program mainly because of their co-op. I really do enjoy programming and things like that as I do game development in my free time. In my grade 10 year I really didn't care much about studies and I was just trying to find my path while enjoying my school year. On most days I wouldn't study or do anything so it's reasonable that my average was in the high 80's. I really believe I can step up this year in terms of marks. I don't know much about how universities work or anything so any tips would be appreciated.

Is this a bad schedule, what could i change to make it better?

i have him for 120 chem

Hi everyone. A couple of weeks ago, I was traveling on my wheelchair to get to a doctor's appointment because I was going to be late going by cab and there's no Ubers in my town, it was a specialist i waited like 6 months to see. On many of the sidewalks there was no dip in the sidewalk to get up and down, so I would either have to travel way up the road to get to a place thata did or go on the road. Sometimes there is no option but to go on the road and I was so close to getting hit by a car. No one should have to risk their life to travel in the world. Please take a moment to sign the petition to enact global change on this matter. We've (my friends and family) tried contacting city council and they don't seem to care. Sidewalks are an issue everywhere I've lived. Click here to sign the petition

Hi,

I met a family who just moved to Canada three days ago. They are in an air bnb but looking for a 3 bedroom 2 bathroom house to rent in Waterloo.

Please let me know if you know of any places or any good websites to use to find rentals. I haven’t rented in a long time so I’m not sure where to start.

TIA

My friend and I are heading to the Weeknd concert on July 28th and are planning to Uber back to Waterloo afterward since there’s no bus service that late. We’re looking for someone else attending who’d be open to splitting the ride back. If you're interested, please dm me!

gonna move in next month as a freshman, idk what to expect, heard the foods blesssed tho

Okay, so i know it's basically a thing saying "I will use the money I receive in financial aid from OSAP, ect, to fund my schooling and only for that"

BUT I don't think I've received the money yet for said financial aid. So am I meant to wait until it's been processed to start paying? The due date for tuition and stuff is August 19 and I can only pay a certain amount of money per week from my bank account so if I want to make my payments, I'm gonna have to start soon.

So am I meant to start paying even if my promissory note isn't processed?

I’m planning a “This or That” date for my partner and I this week and am looking for ideas.

1. Dinner - Ajisen Ramen or Guyubee
2. Dessert - Menchies or Four All Ice Cream
3. Sunset - Waterloo Park or Kiwanis Park (or if you’ve got a better spot, I’m all ears)

I feel like there should be a 4th thing but am blanking. Suggestions welcomed!

How do I access the really BIG computer in MC, I need a BIG amount of compute for a BIG amount of jobs in a not so BIG amount of time

I am writing to seek further clarification and assistance regarding an issue with a water valve cover located on the sidewalk beside my driveway. The valve is situated outside my property, and recently the cover has come off by itself. I have already contacted the Town house Management and Kitchener Utilities regarding this matter. However, they informed me that it is my responsibility to address the issue. I find this confusing, as the valve appears to be connected to multiple properties, and its location on the sidewalk suggests it may not serve only my unit.

Given that water shut-off valves are typically maintained by the city, I am unsure how to determine whether this is indeed my sole responsibility. Additionally, I do not feel comfortable hiring a plumber without a proper inspection to confirm ownership and responsibility.

Is that the same as CS data science?

Hey everyone. I have found several pieces of jewelry on the streets uptown Waterloo over the last couple weeks. Some have engravings and seem hold sentimental value. I don't want to post photos so random people claim them, so if you're missing something after being Uptown in the last weeks, let me know & I'll let you know if I have it. Cheers!

Hello,

Has anyone taken CC100 and CC102? If so, did you like the course and what was it like? Is one harder than the other or are they similar? Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Was I hallucinating, or was there a large red balloon dog in the middle of King Street where the festival is held on Friday?

Hi there,

I found a wallet at a Burlington mall of a Cambridge resident. His address is Bailey Drive Cambridge N1P 1G5.

If any one of you know the person, can you ask him to message me here? Help me track him!

Thank you!

Update: Found the person and handed over the wallet. Thank you everyone for your suggestions.

Is it a bad idea to take two online electives (CLAS 104 and EARTH 122) in first year along with bio, chem, and physics?

Please please somebody help

They're raising money for the Humane Society. You can buy tickets and join the draw for all the goodies and more. The person said that they're there every weekend.

I already have my own dental and vision care plans. How would I opt out?

Hi everyone, I recently moved to Canada to start a PhD, and I’m wondering if it’s possible to apply for PR while I’m still studying. I have over 10 years of work experience from my home country, and I’m curious if that could help with my eligibility. Has anyone gone through a similar process or have any advice on how to approach this? I’m planning to visit IEC next week to see what guidance they can offer, but I’d really appreciate hearing from others who’ve been in a similar situation. Thanks

Ps. I also lived in Canada for 7 years ( 2000-2007) and went to elementary school but don't know if this helps in any way

We have a 2007 Toyota Matrix that we have recently replaced (thanks to the family hand-me-down car network) and we now need to get rid of the old car. Yeah, she's old enough to vote, but she's got some miles left in her! She does need some work (exhaust system and brakes) before she'd pass a safety, though.

We're wondering if there are any used dealers in the KW area that would be interested in such a vehicle, or if we should just connect with Kidney Car right off the bat. Thanks in advance!

Edit: I should say that I'm also interested in the sort of place that would sell it for parts, not just as a driveable vehicle.

I lost a card that a bell door-to-door sales rep gave me, wondering if anyone has there number and is willing to send a pic for me to call them. Thank you

Hi guys, I am looking to move to Waterloo and am considering filling out an application for 371 Dale Crescent. I was told it was a well mentioned and quiet building with no loud partying which suits me perfectly. Does anyone know anything about the building?

Why the water bags if we don’t fill them. Definition of insanity. These trees have been replaced several times just to die again bc they aren’t properly planted or maintained. And yes we proudly claim to be a “Tree City”

I’m heading back to Laurier this fall and trying to get ahead on what’s changed over the summer.

Have there been any noticeable updates on campus like new food options in the Dining Hall, renovations around the Science Building, or changes to student services?

Also wondering if any clubs have started planning early events or welcome activities for September.I’m hoping to get more involved this year beyond just academics

I've never before lived in a place where a random power outage was a weekly occurrence...
