I know what you mean...and in general, I'm about as far from an "equal rights liberal lefty" as can be.
It's kinda the same thing with WDW. The difference being with
DCL, you at least had to have given them some money in the past. With WDW, it pretty much just requires a lot of research. I despise the whole 180-day thing for ADRs, but those are the rules. How many first-timers get screwed with their dining becasue of that?
Out of curiousity once, I checked the meet thread for the Magic cruise out NYC leaving one day after our cruise (8/25) that we considered instead of this cruise. It's such an active thread compared to ours, plus I think they may have their own Facebook group as well. I guess there just aren't that many DISers on our cruise. Athough, there have been some people that have popped in here and posted once that they would be on the cruise and...(cue creepy music)...have never been heard from again.
