I've always felt that HCW was overly censored and "highfalutin" - this is just another example. | Wait, so highfalutin means pompous and pretentious... but it is in and of itself a rather pretentious word, wouldn't you agree?
Or maybe it's a Hindi phrase?

As for the original post, how often do 3 month forward previews pan out even 75%? I thank the OP for the post but the mods probably have been burned by deals not coming to pass and a month or so is probably the max that can be relied upon. Just surmisin' in a highfalutin manner here. And I'll thank and rep my own self. |

| Re: I'm confused. Are we not allowed to post ECB Previews? First of all, you would have to know MY history with HCW in order to understand my "highfalutin" remark.
BECAUSE OF HCW and the mods "working their tails off" I have BECOME a couponer. I thank HCW EVERY DAY for what the members have taught me. Yes, I use a different site on a daily basis, but I still subscribe to the RSS feeds, and "drop in" occassionally. When offering newbies advice, I still drop HCW as a source of GREAT information.
HOWEVER...I have QUICKLY come to realize that a "non-politically correct" person such as myself does not fit in well here. I have, in the past, been given infractions for RIDICULOUS things. One of which was completely misconstrued.
I'm making a PUBLIC apology for regarding HCW and it's mods as highfalutin when in fact I should have directed that comment to the one person it was intended for. It's very simple - I have a problem with people telling me what I can and can't do. Now before you take that statement and twist it around, when it comes to ethics, I would consider myself to have extremely high standards and when it comes to legality, I sometimes take it to an extreme (researching the facts, etc). I would NEVER knowingly do something unethical or illegal. Period.
So back to people telling me what I can and can't do...I've been a member here for mmm...probably about 7 months. By no means do I consider myself a PRO, or an old-timer, but after 7 months of reading EVERY DAY, I have noticed how the posts keep getting more and more "controlled" and yes, censored - to the point where it's no longer just an ethical or legal issue being snubbed.
Maybe you don't see it...maybe it's just MY "highfalutin" opinion...who knows...but the point is, I am publically apologizing to the general mod and member population, I will ALWAYS visit HCW, I will ALWAYS be extremely appreciative of everything everyone involved contributes, but I will also ALWAYS have my opinions.

| Re: I'm confused. Are we not allowed to post ECB Previews? Heres the thing in a nutshell, cant please everyone all the time but boy they sure do try.
The CVS gals are doing what the majority of the members say will make their visits to the CVS forum a more positive experience.
They do not want to depersonalize the forum or take your credit, just make some of the threads more about the deals and less about the chat for quick and easy navigation.
Happy New Year!

Apology accepted.  Sorry about the neg rep...
I've only negged twice in my HCW life-span & both times were because I was mad that the mods were put down. Anything else, I can take with a grain of salt.
It was mighty humble of you to come & apologize.
