How to change username

Speck • 6 days ago

I wanted to change my username. I sent an email to support@ominous.app about the username change. Is there any other way I could change my username that I'm missing?

Goodbye OAP

itsme • 1 week ago

I stumbled across such an interesting abandoned place today, it was such a beautiful find. When I got home I decided to look into it and I came to OAP like I have for many years and I get asked for money to be able to find out about this place. Are you kidding me? I have since deleted all of my content from here that I possibly could. It was sad doing it but so nice going through so many great memories of so many beautiful places. Some that were suggested to me from Rick Cooper when he and his wife would see places in my area as they were passing along in their boat and would message me so enthusiastically that I just had to go check these places out. Of course I always would. Which contributed to many locations on this site from the beginning of it all. I remember so many ups and downs through the years and many many great people who I have met along the way. To be asked for money to have full access to this site after all this time and contribution is so insulting. I am saying goodbye and enjoy the last 19 locations I wasn't able to erase. Explore safely and responsibly friends xo -itsme

Looking for Alberta explorers

UrbexGal • 2 weeks ago

hey guys! I know this site was based in Ontario, but is there anyone like myself more on the western side of Canada?? I do travel frequently but it would be awesome to meet some people closer to Alberta :D

Introduction

TheAlarmGuy • 1 month ago

Hello, I am The Alarm Guy, I'm from BC and am an amateur explorer. I used to be pretty active during the pandemic but not so much any more. I am a big security system enthusiast and tinker with different systems in my spare time. If anyone wants information on security systems, I am more than happy to provide information, what you do with that information is not my concern, but I will provide information solely for the purpose of helping people make informed decisions on exploring places. Anyways being new to this community, I am excited to see what others have posted! Cheers.

New to OAP, not new to Urbex

Laurie • 1 month ago

Hey! I just round OAP and joined a few days ago. I've been doing this urbex thing for a while and didn't know there was a community. So great to be here. there are lots of helpful tips and some rules that I hope I am following (very excited to post my recent find!) Two questions: how can I change my user name and where can I find the Discord for this group? thx!

Promotion Elections

All Elections

In progress

dissatisfaction • 3 days ago

hello everyone. i was previously rejected for being a couple locations under the requirements. anyways, you can view my initial yappery here: https://ominous.app/election/43 i am now resubmitting my election request as i meet the requirements and have been a pretty active user. i like exploring, and i like draining, and i want to get more into photography once DA buys me a camera. thank you.

Not sure exactly how this goes, but I did glance at a couple of the other promotion elections to get a better idea. I pride myself in giving in-depth location write ups providing sufficient history and context on each of my locations, along with with quality photos within the albums. Having a preference to explore at night, I'm sometimes unable to produce the same quality of pictures as I would like to than in the day, but I try my best to provide sufficient lighting and clear photos in all my albums. I like to be active in the community, and I'm hoping to explore quite a bit this summer before I get busier with work/school in september. I'll give a quick rundown of my albums: **Level 1:** 3x Interiors 0x Exteriors **Level 2:** 8x Interiors 2x Exteriors **Level 3:** 8x Interiors 2x Exteriors Not including a private album and a second malt trip, that's the grand total. I feel most of my albums would be considered "quality content", and if there's any advice or tips on to improve I would be open to that as well. ### Thanks for the consideration!

Well, here we go, another guy applying for a Level 2 promotion. My personal goal, regardless of promotion, is to continue going on adventures to access more remote locations, and in terms of OAP, to fill in some of the empty space that currently blankets Northern Ontario. I do my best to take clear, coherent photos that give some sense of a place, even if they aren’t necessarily exceptional from an artistic standpoint. (In fairness note that I broke one album into two to keep it manageable for a location that had two large, distinct parts, but for the purposes of election count it as 28, not 29 albums). If you look through my galleries and locations, you’ll note that I emphasize the “Exploration” much more than the “Urban” in my urbex endeavours. To be honest: you won’t likely see a lot of albums from me that involve dodging active security guards, alarm systems and cameras or the like (though maybe the occasional game camera). What I do offer is those more forlorn, lost in the wild locations. Places off the beaten path, across ruined roads or through the brush. Old mines, bases, railway stops and homesteads. Is it 50kms down some unmaintained road in the middle of nowhere? Perfect. Thanks for your consideration guys!

I believe I more than meet the requirements for Level 2: I have found **six new locations**, one of which is particularly high-profile (Level 4). As well, I have submitted **more than ten albums with interiors**, many of which are Level 2 and 3 with three Level 4's. I don't vandalize the sites, and I do my best to write a detailed description based on the information I can find. While I'm capable of finding new locations (or rediscovering ones that people have already found), I'd like Level 2 access because I prefer to know what kind of hazards I'm dealing with ahead of time. Furthermore, I want to take photos from angles that few people have done - I'm a decent climber and have gotten rooftop pics for some locations that didn't have them. Finally, these climbing skills have helped me obtain interior photos for locations in which the POE's were blocked off. Thanks for reading this! Also something I learned: some albums are earned with blood, sweat, and bruises.

Hey to everybody on this site, I'm currently a level one user hoping to achieve level two. In the requirements to attain level two, it says that one must contribute to 10 albums and find 3 new locations of any level. While I have only contributed to 6 albums, I have found and contibuted to 6 additional locations. I recall seeing another user with a similar predicament be accepted, so I thought I'd give this a shot. On another note, I don't give out locations, nor would I ever dream of vandalizing a place. I try my best to put detailed writing in all of my posts concerning the history, location description and risks involved in exploring said location. In the attainment of level two I would be able to contibute to more places in the Tri-City Region (Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambrige), Guelph and adjacent towns and counties. My only mean of travel is by bike, so I am limited in terms of distance, though I keep going further and try my best. I appreciate any and all consideration of this request, and I'd also appreciate any feedback concerning anything in relation to this application or the content I put out. -nurbexo

Hello and welcome, any tips for realtor key lock box? Thanks

TheAlarmGuy • 2 days ago

Also be on the lookout for little white or black little boxes on doors, those are magnetic reed sensors connected to the alarm, if you open a main point of entry, you may have 30 seconds for an entry delay before the alarm activates. The most common alarms for commercial premises would be from DSC, GE/Interlogix, and Ademco/Honeywell, and I would highly recommend reading the installers manuals for ideas on what the zone programming options are. Lastly, if you can find an alarm keypad, look for green or red lights, green usually means AC power or "Disarmed" (Off) or "Armed" (on), some older alarms may have a light that says "Instant" or "Max" which will trigger an alarm instantly regardless of the entry delay timer. If you can find a yellow "Trouble" light on the keypad, it may mean the phone line is disconnected, but don't rely on that as it may be a different issue. Forgot to mention that wireless motion sensors connected to burglar alarms may not illuminate the alarm indicator (The red LED that indicates it has detected motion), and dual technology motion sensors have "pre-alarm" green and yellow indicators that doesn't mean it has registered an alarm, but that you have tripped one of the two sensors required to trigger an alarm.

TheAlarmGuy • 2 days ago

Wireless sensors are much more difficult to disable unless you're really tech savvy and know how to jam the signal. Unfortunately i can't provide much information on non security alarm peripherals without a more detailed user/installer manual than the one provided on the site

TheAlarmGuy • 2 days ago

Check your corners and above doors, motion sensors are mounted in corners 90% of the time to maximize coverage, if you see a red LED blink on what appears to be a motion sensor, be prepared to get the hell out of there, some places may have an alarm with no siren. some sensors can also be ceiling mounted but about 60% of those are for energy saving lights.

TheAlarmGuy • 2 days ago

Depends on the alarm's setup, usually they are programmed as "Instant" or "Interior Follower" follower's will instantly go into alarm if an entry delay zone such as a front door, isnt tripped first. However, most alarms will require 2 different zones to go into alarm within roughly 5 mins for a police response instead of security

Oh, additionally, higher level members, please feel free to let me know if you think my location levels seem correct.

your 6 locations do count for albums, just so you know.

Anonymous • 1 month ago

Additionally, I'm not sure if "3 months of activity" pertains to account creation, time on the site, the first album posted or the actual date the first album's pictures were taken. Once again, I am just trying this out looking for feedback.

The main part (right side) was a far far older house, some sources indicate it may have originally faced Highway 7 and been rotated/moved 90 degrees to front onto Lansdowne when the railway underpass was built in 1929-1930. The addition on the left appears to have been added at a later date. All gone, apartments or condos going in now.

ishootthings • 1 month ago

Why do all these newer users feel the need to go comment on half decade plus photos and contribute nothing positive or constructive? Be better to be creating content to get stupid answers on your own albums.
