I'll start by acknowledging that I know some of you do genuinely like this company. I have not used Veygo in my life. I cannot attest to their services. They might be the best car rental service in the world. I would not know.

I also cannot definitively conclude that the following theory is true, but I'd say the probability is moderate.

With that out of the way, here is what I just wasted the last 30 minutes of my life collecting :

WELCOME TO MY RENTAL CAR CRACKDOWN EXTRAVAGANZA

In response to his ad being removed by a moderator, the founder of Veygo appears to be creating alt accounts to continue posting ads on the subreddit.

Now we move onto the post today:

Take a look at a similar post from a year ago:

In the comments, the OP insistent on stating how 'fishy these low low prices are!!'.

There's a chance they are generating fake accounts to create fake bustle so you look at the posts. That in of itself is immoral on some level.

Every suspicious account in the comments of the latest post has the generic auto generated username.

****Note that these three accounts all barely have any reddit activity.

The commentators also tend to consistently note how you don't have to be 21 years old to rent.

I don't think the founder has done this consistently, I've only looked at the posts made strictly by someone other than u/ARC_Rentals. Does this whole thing matter? Dunno. Just thought you might wanna hear about it.

Peers on the CS discord and I have come to the conclusion that the CS 240 students who got flagged deserved to be punished.

  1. AI checkers in general, have gotten good. Brightspace has one built into it, and it labels every assignment. Further, given you are operating on a PURDUE PROVIDED MACHINE, they have hundreds of possible markers to flag you for cheating. False positives are not an issue.
  2. I dislike the complaining regarding the course being difficult. Its pitiful.
  3. Cheating took place on several assignments. Not one or two. It was serial.
  4. The complaints of difficulty on this subreddit are pathetic. Stop playing the victim.
