CMs Refusing to Trade Pins

[Oglet]

honestly, you all are making this wayyyy to complicated.

how about instead of putting on the duplicate thus having to stop every half hour to remove it, just don't put it on to begin with... not that complicated.

besides, the cm has to stop to trade...that is more frequent than the times there are dup's.

Because CM's are required to have a set amount of pins on their lanyard.

It's silly for either of you to claim insight into how Walt would feel about pin-trading rules.

Although, I always get a kick out of how often Disboards posters play the "Walt Woulda" card, as if they know exactly what Walt Woulda Done... and it always just so happens to agree with whatever point the poster is trying to make.

In all honesty, the point I was trying to make was exactly what you wrote. I obviously wasn't as clear as I hoped to be. Too tired, and not enough caffeine, I guess!

I get annoyed with posters who post how poor old Walt would be "turning in his grave" over this or that - in this case, rules for pin trading. I was just trying to point out that Walt himself has instituted various rules, so this didn't seem to be that much of a stretch to me. I don't care what the guy would have thought of the rules, nor would I presume to guess what he would have made of them. It's a business, a very good one in terms of customer service, but a business nonetheless.

I'll bet you if Walt Disney were alive he would not be to pleased with the attitudes of some of the cm's who can't say may I help you or thank you regardless of how their day is going.....

If I had to guess what his thoughts would have been on the subject, I'd guess that you're probably right, but I'm not sure what that has to do with the thread and the idea of rules for CMs and pin trading

Yes of course. During my time on DIS I have learned that Disney policy trumps all aspects of life and common sense. AND the only way I can ever experience Disney is to memorize the entire P&P and report where I see a violation.

And yes my life was empty before it was filled with DIS knowledge. I ask you to open your heart to the policies.

Your username, at least the first part, must be an antonym for something else.

You are the absolute LAST person who should be talking about following poilcy. You were on another thread the other day talking about how much you pool hop all over Disney.

Me thinks you come here for nothing other than to start crap. :stirpot: I honestly, from the bottom of my heart, feel very sorry for you. I am really surprised that the WebMasters have not banned you from the Dis.

People... TenderDonkey is being sarcastically silly. And will continue to do so as long as you think the comments are serious.

Sorry, but this person has already set a negative reputation for himself. I dont have the time to waste, but if you go back and do a history, you will find that this person brags about breaking policy, insults peoples weight, makes negative comments in each thread that he posts in does nothing less than stir up drama and tension. When somebody has a reputation like this on the Dis, it follows them around no matter where they post.

For those who dont understand - I am not complaining about the policy, just wondered when it went into effect. I was only made aware of it this month. I am happy to follow the rules.

Mods, please close this as it has gone off topic and is totally ridiculous at this point.

As long as the cast member explains the rule nicely there isn't any problems with it that I know of. I've never had a guest upset when explain the rule they just usually respond that they understand and offer a different pin. Now vinyalmation is a totally different story....

Just curious... why not add him to your ignore list? I don't know the guy's history here nor will I look it up... but it seems like the best way to handle it -- because now it looks like you're attacking him in two posts. I won't debate the merits of whether or not he deserves it, but two wrongs don't make a right.

You are right. I did not mean it that way, but you make a good point.

Stick a fork in this thread, gang. It's done.
