We only have Wal-Mart around here. And that's just a bunch of old people. They never know what's going on. They're still trying to find the Atari section... :rolleyes:

What is so bad about WalMart?

A few years ago I saw this on 60 minutes.
WalMart comes into a small town, and talks about it's low prices.
WalMart Boasts that it can under price any other store in town.
Other stores lose business and stop making money
Other stores go out of business and the owners leave town.
Number of jobs in town lost so more people leave.
Other non-retail businesses lose money because there isn't enough people.
More people leave town.
WalMart finds that it isn't getting as much money from this town as it used to, so it shuts it's doors.

I actually know of this happening to a Town not far from where I grew up.

:p I love this,
For some reason I find the fact that Walmart moves into small towns, destroys thier economy and then moves on, leaving wrecked small towns in it's wake, funny.
Reminds me of the devil in Needfull Things.

:Edited for clarification: I hate Walmart too. Sorry for the misunderstanding. I have a very dark sense of humor.

They are (and may have already) going bankrupt. Put simply they couldn't keep up with the sales of the other superstores. Namely Walmart. Walmart is the only superstore that made a profit I believe, I know it made more money then the others.

See above. Walmart is evil.
There was a MadTV skit that underlined my point. It likened Walmart to the pod people in Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
Everytime one of the customers would talk against "Walsmart" the otehrs would point, scream, surround, and take that customer away. Later you would see him with a labotomy scar and talking about how great "Walsmart" is.
The tagline at the end of the skit was "Walsmart! resistance is futile!"

Great stuff! Dark sense of humor again.

:rofl::rofl::rofl: Damn Walmart, screwing everything up. It always seemed like a NC (hick) kind of store. Always in small towns in the south. Regardless, the evl menace must stop targeting small towns, or BE stopped!

Haha, you guys arent going to like what you hear then because I was doing some research and Walmart makes the MOST profit of any business (Yes even large busniess corps) in the entire united states. They pull in more annually then Best buy does in 5 years ;). Yes I know its a sad thing, lets just hope another thing like Enron happens to Walmart but then again just as many people will lose their jobs...so i'm going to stop rambling now....

On that note that smily does annoy the hell out of me.

Must...post...Walmart...story....

Went to Walmart to get new tires on my car. Was told they had 4 of the type I wanted, would be about a 45 minute wait time. After TWO hours, I was told that one of the tires was defective and that they could only put on THREE tires, and that I would have to drive to the nearest WalMart store (20 min away) to get the forth. Waited ONE more hour for them to finish, then drove to other WalMart. Got there, asked for the person they said to ask for, she said there was at least a TWO hour wait, I was like "hey i've already waited, you guys screwed up and they said I could get it done immediately", and she said "well they told you wrong, you have to wait in line like everyone else". So I drove to the discount tires right next door (which on retrospect I should have done in the first place) and got my 4th now nonmatching tire.

Walmart doesn't give diddly fart about customers, they are evil and people should not frequent their stores (esp for tires). Nuff said.

K-Mart seems to just want to die. I visited a few of their stores last month and I found out that they are badly maintained and the workers seem to just not care. I smell death on them.

40 minutes? HAHAHAHAHAH thats nothing to the nearest best buy....2 hour, walmart/kamart/crappy stores...40 minutes, to the mall...1.5 hours. Yes I live out in the middle of no where. btw, I am now going to EB to try and make a bet with some idiot there.

Some info on Wal-Mart and music. (http://www.theroc.org/boycotts/walmart.htm)

More Wally-World fun. (http://coolplace2.tripod.com/codered/id12.html)

Anyway, I'm not an active anti-Wal Mart activist or anything, but I knew about the CD censorship - which is enough to make me vote by taking my consumer dollars elsewhere - and know how to use google for a few sites.

Well free for the first month anyway... :p I'm sure you'll re-up your subscription to PS after that first free month. I KNOW I will!

Tight sig BTW, ABRAXAAS!

As for Wal-mart stories... I used to work there. I admit it. It actually meant something back when Sam Walton was still alive. After he passed on, that company totally went to pot. I try not to EVER shop there... But sometimes they get computer games before other people do in my town. VERY strange.

Nice Sig ^ i like the logo :D besides the fact your NC...no biggie a cool symbol is a cool symbol is a cool symbol...right? hehe did you make it or someone else?

Big Bro
2003-02-27, 11:11 AM
Thx man! The symbol is a creation of our overall clan leader CUJO, who started NCG in 1999. I borrowed that, a PlanetSide Logo I found, and made the rest of the sig by using Photoshop 7.0 and one of the kewl PS screenshots!

Although the pic shows NC, I just like the colors. Our outfit hasn't chosen an empire yet. We might even start out by playing all 3 empires and seeing what makes the most sense for us. I'll admit tho that several of my clanmates have mentioned NC as their fav. We'll see...

I would happily pay for this game, not only to support and show thanks to the development team, but also because I get a kick out of tearing the plastic from the PC box, sniffing the non-used smell, licking the manual..uh..I mean..hrm.. *whistle*


On a side note, you buy the game for $XX and pay $XX each month? How many X:s are we talking about here?

My Town there is a Wal-Mart and a K-Mart within in 1 mile of each other.

K-Mart suxs. They never have anything in stock. There pizza is cheap but the area its made in is so dirty. The store is selfs is dirty. And it caught fire 1 summer ago. Its under staff, needs a lot of works, and never has anything. They dont even have command and counquer generals or battle field road to rome there yet.

Wal-Mart. Awsome place to hang otu around here. People are nice they have so much to pick from. You can usally find what you want and i've never had a problem there. I get most of my goods there seeing how its a 10 min walk there (kmart is 5 minutes away) They only thing bad is the only have edited CD's but then again K-mart dosen't.

I dont have a superwalmart just one thats sells good that arent all food.

Im Pro Wal-Mart Anti K-Mart ... plus i always get cursed at by employees at K-Mart. Its not a very nice place.

JMan, we could take this off-topic discussion into our own PS forum.

We have several people that have shown interest in the game from our clan. They just aren't posting on the community forums is all.
