Meta Quick rule reminder and update for r/Arizona

43 Upvotes

Wanted to give a reminder and quick update on a few rules.

Picture posts need a location and a description. Doesn't have to be an exact address, but generally what part of Arizona it was taken in. This has been a rule for ages and was suggested by users to help combat picture spam ("Wow, check this out!") and balance the many weather and sunset pictures we get flooded with. Plus it helps people know WTF your post is about.

When we get a ton of posts on one topic we'll make a megathread and try to bring the conversation together. Don't take it personal. I know some people love a million pictures about monsoons or sunsets, but many don't and let us know all about it. A megathread is the compromise. We don't do it often, so please just use it the few times we do.

Any political posts (or politic adjacent, like Flock cameras and Data Centers) needs to be flared Politics and are limited to established users here. This combats trolls and bots.

Recommendations for local businesses are better suited for your local subreddits like [r/Phoenix](r/Phoenix), [r/Tucson](r/Tucson), or [r/Flagstaff](r/Flagstaff). The exception are posts about things to do and places to eat that may be of interest to other Arizonans traveling around the state. Roofing companies, massage places, and thrift stores are more of a local thing.

Posts shaming or calling out people or businesses are not welcome here. I get the desire for a good witch hunt, but it's too prone to hurting innocent people. News stories about issues are fine, this is just about posting pictures of people who pissed you off or a business that made you nasty cupcakes. We've covered this policy a lot but there has been a bunch of these lately. Maybe it's the heat making everyone cranky. Either way, this subreddit isn't your personal attack dog.

If you have any questions, ask away.

Visiting Things to do in Coolidge Arizona

15 Upvotes

I have decided to hire an Airstream and visit a friend who's in Coolidge Arizona only for a short time window. I may just park up on the side of the road somewhere and look at the sunset. Does anyone local have any recommendations for spots nearby - but outside your normal tourist bubbles? I'm particularly interested to get the view of a local who may see Arizona and all is beauty through a different lense to my rose-tinted glasses. Thanks.

I'm on week 11 of looking for a new job and have filed my weekly claims since July. My case status still says Active/Unresolved due to my severance pay which I received last year and has been gone since March. I can't get through to anyone by phone. I've filled out forms on the Ombudsmens page and still not a god damn peep from them.
