Leaving feedback for trade ratings is far too time consuming for the little information it actually provides. I'm rarely anything less than satified with fellow VWT train riders and the current positive/neutral/negative rating system doesnt provide for variables and minor discontent anyway. However, the flaws of current rating system aside, I'd love a swift method of giving everyone who rode a train with me a positive rating in one click.
Thank you Amber. I promise I reported it. I think you guys might not be getting some of the reports come thru? I know I reported that last one yesterday.??? Not sure what happened. I know I don't post in the brags and I hear all the time people have stopped becuase they are afraid to.

Instead of asking for clarification, they attack, make rude remarks, and take it upon themselves to rush to contact stores/head offices to point out that people are doing things wrong.
There is no point in posting something that someone is bound to rip you apart for as soon as they can find an error.
+1 unless someone mentions a brag to me or it shows in new posts, I just don't venture into the forum at all to avoid the drama
However, I do not think we should be condoning mass misuse of coupons either, but I gave up reporting them for misuse a long time ago too, newbies learn from the misuse and its a cycle

Yes, in that case, but there are many examples of ppl using the wrong coupon, bragging about it and then crying when someone calls them on itQuote:

I dont do brags just because i feel it's opening a can of worms. Some people might feel it's like saying..nanana i got 30 boxes of toothpastes and you didnt..:lolsign: . Jealousy goes a long way!
For me, i dont see any harm in bragging..some people feel the need to share but i guess for others it's a section that should probably blow-up in flames. :lolsign:
I hear ya. I love finding out what others do or deals I didn't know were out there. But I stopped posting brags or flyers etc. I just don't want to get pounced. Its the assuming that is really hurtful to people.
I think there is a glitch with statuses lately... logged back on tonight and my status was completely removed. I'm just going to assume it was a site glitch..
Like anything on SC, status can and are moderated if they attack SCers, are generally rude or attack SC / go against its aims or are spamQuote:

People msged me about attacking her, while she saw it for what it was, questions about the coupons/products.
Unfortunately, the outward attacks that have taken place have left everyone oversensitive to questions, feeling every comment is an attack.
I do feel however, that putting the questions down to jealousy is also unfounded, I really don't care what other people buy, unless it really is impacting me (like when my local WM stopped accepting any printed for a time bc someone made their own coupons and used them), if you want to buy 30 of something, fine, who cares, but if you are scamming using it on the wrong product, then I do think its wrong.

Rude, attacking, spam, reported etc statuses are removed. 5th time. Stop this please.
now putting "edit this" as your status is just plain rude.
I am really getting tired of this.

All of the ones I report are being dealt with
how do you know?
Kelly is now kelly25, was a glitch. Will try to fix later on.
I noticed that only some of our threads let us expire our own threads. Is there a way to expire the other ones ourselves?
no, these have to be ticked off by a few people or expired by a mod
