Did you not see the emoticon on my post?
Good luck and let us know when they file the restraining order against you. Quote:

You Rock RD! Maybe, just maybe we will see some changes in the coming months. I suppose it wouldn't hurt if some of the rest of us talk directly to our local WM toy department managers as well. I never even thought to do so, but after reading your posts it sounds like talking with that individual might just get products on the shelves.
I buy B-C engines at WM when they have them, but I have never seen any kits other than the cheap plastic starter sets and the occasional Launchable set. I'd fall over if they actually had any builders kits on the shelves. Thanks for your efforts!!! |

WalMart wants to know what the consumers wants . It's beneficial to everyone. And, if WM puts in the merchandise, we all benefit. |

The only restraining order will be that WM carries what everyone wants. WM wants feedback, I was told that from the manager, asst manager and the marketing mgr, so, who is going to restrain who? They have my phone # and I have theirs. Anyone who feels that they want to "come after me" for any reason will be in for a surprise, the TRUTH will set you FREE..... Companies pay millions of dollars to get feedback, it only fenefits that particular company, it's not detrimental to offer constructive criticism. INcreased sales = increased profits and not only benefits the consumer but the company as well. It doesn't make sense to have a over abundance of A10-3T's, when the core motors are lacking. Unsold merchandise will only lead to product not being available in the stores. And, without a mix of product, the same old same old will not generate new business. If a retiler has the same starter sets, eventually, the market will be flooded, and, no further sales made, you need new product , not only starter sets, but, individual rockets aas well. You also need the motors to support those kits being sold. WM, from my conversation yesterday have become aware of the situation and are going to look into it, and, I was thanked for the information. As with the former Estes forum, my intentions were for the benefit of not only MY fellow rocketeers, but the company as well. We all must work hand and hand for a mutual goal THE HOBBY !!!! |

OK, that's 2 very long responses to posts that were clearly humorous and identified with emoticons.
Now for a run-on endlessly worded question: Were you on r.m.r. when a bot-produced diatribe about "he who shall not be mentioned" was posted and then followed up with an enormous point-by-point response by hwsnbm which was then followed up with dozens of posts from everyone marvelling at how hwsnbm could not understand siimple humor or that the original message being responded to was obviously a rambling computer generated diatribe? Now, my previous short and identified-as-humor messages here were not generated by computer, but they were identifed by the emoticons. For historical and hysterical puposes, here is the Google-news version of the usenet group r.m.r. and the thread I mentioned above. I posted the first message which was simply a link to a robotic complaint generator, then someone used it to post the "Master Complaint" (post 2), then hwsnbm responded in post 10 and the hilarity rolled on and on. sigh, the good old days of r.m.r. ..... http://groups.google.com/group/rec....cbc9f0364c22e07 Quote:

The bottom line is, WM doesn't have what the consumer wants......period. Humor or not, for someone with the passion to "MIH" Make It Happen is not a laughing matter!!!

This whole thread just supports my belief that Wal Mart is managed at the corporate level (as individual store managers have virtually zero management authority) by absolute idiots as this no "B" engine situation has existed for YEARS.
