JUST A QUICK REMINDER OF THE RULES

Post by TrueBlueTerrier »

The Rules can be found here but just a quick restatement of the ones that keep being missed.

1. It is fair to say that those in the 'top jobs' come in for a lot of criticism on this forum, please post constructive criticism and nothing else. Any libellous or slanderous posts will be deleted or amended, in no way should these personalities have any abuse aimed at them, period.

2. Except for nationally known personalities please do not name any individuals on here, rather use their 'work title' or 'my/a colleague' instead. When posting copies of articles available on the Internet that name individuals please ensure that links are provided to the original article.

3. If you suspect anyone of trolling do not respond to their posts as this will only encourage them. Most internet trolls post objectionable material or opinions just to get a reaction, if members do not respond then a troll will get bored and leave. If you believe a member is trolling then PM Postman or one of the Moderators.

4. Please use ordinary English, no 'text talk' or posts entirely in LARGE CAPS which in internet etiquette is known as shouting.


Cheers - Teebs

As a new viewer of this site I would like to say that I welcome the need for a site like this, So that RM staff and customers can find information or just vent their feelings.
I am however dissapointed with the smilies on this site. And indeed find the three political one's offensive and dissrespectful.

Although I know that the CWU have connections with a particular political party. I think that as this site is for All RM staff and customers. The use of offensive smilies should cease.
please note rule 1 above.

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Probably lots, I don't swear a lot but those smilies don't annoy/offend me, just ignore them, it's what I do when I when I am bombarded by multiple swearers outside.
