Mod's note
Here's a new change for the community: anons won't be able to post here anymore.

For some of you out there who don't want to post with their regular LJ accounts, you have two options:

1. create another account, or

2. send me a message (go into my profile and click on the link for sending a message) and I will post the message for you

For the members who do post with their accounts, I strongly suggest you to be aware of this internet's Golden Rule--don't feed the trolls! They will keep pestering you (you in general) if you get riled up and fire back.

I am not to advocate for safe space (if you want safe space, go join [info]vaginapagina), but I also believe in fair game. I do encourage respect. I don't expect all smiles and rainbows in here, and some posts do warrant boomerang comments (like that post where one guy complained of being coached for not changing the end cap price sign when putting up higher-priced items). Also be aware that people will have differing opinions. I am not going to hold your hands, but I do expect you guys to keep your cool.

I will delete some comments, freeze a few threads, but come on, be civilized. I won't take care of every single petty comment or catty comeback.

Any questions?

I agree. Admittedly, everyone (or almost everyone) has days when they just pop off something out of anger, rage, denial or just plain frustration. We all might say something (or type something) that seems over the top or mean.

I think if we all keep in mind that dealing with Walmart and their wonderful cusstomers is a frustrating business at best, we might be more willing to realize that somedays, you just gotta vent.

Well, I wasn't focusing on vents. I am referring more to situations where someone makes a comment/post that does warrant a come-back and gets offended about being corrected or rebutted. It's not always the case, and some other comments are valid and replies were idiotic. But, these latter ones are not happening all the time, either. I am also referring to situations where someone simply doesn't like dealing with comments that don't jive with his/her opinions/expectations.

I do have one question:
Where do I send the hug you've earned for finally de-anoning the community?

Make that two hugs. Definitely a smart move.

It's got to be off Walmart property and off the clock :P

I am personally very happy about there being no more anonymous posters.

Nice. Finally no one hiding fiery posts behind anon status
