Is anyone else finding this site confusing? I am having trouble figuring out where I should go for more info. I can't get on the home page today at all, and I have a question about posting to the boards. Wher do I ask it? What do I do to get to the boards? I only see Tinkerbell's Travel not the one that has user info and questions. Having the children home for summer vacation has made my mind a bit fuzzy!! Thanks
 
You should go to HenWen's InSights to find it click on Goofys Gossip and on the bottom of the page it will say something like click here(site is down so this is memory)There is detailed directions there for all tasks.

that should answer most of your questions because all boards are located there.You must register with the boards befor you can post.

Where do you ask? has me stumped ask what?

hope this helped but the site is down right now
 
I haven't been able to get onto the Disney Awards site either. I'm also having trouble accessing other websites, like yahoo.

Thank goodness I can still get on the DIS! :bounce:
 
appears homestead is down again.....once it comes back up should be able to get into Disney awards site.
 

I really enjoy Disney Awards but there is no denying it is confusing, especially at first. I think the site owner would like to work on this, but she's too busy just running the site right now.

Disney Awards does have a FAQ, but the link isn't really obvious. On the main page, about two or three sections down, there is a picutre of Mickey with a "talk bubble" above his head saying "?Which One?" Click on him to see the FAQ. Read these FAQ very carefully as they contain some rules you *need* to know, rules which were not in the terms you agreed to when you registered.

To get to the message boards, click on the "Goofy's Gossip" link on the left hand side of the page. (Any of the major pages on the site have this link.) On the Goofy's Gossip page, scroll down through the text to the bottom, just above where you enter your name and e-mail address, and you should see an underlined link that says "Click here." That will take you to the main board listing. Navigating the Disney Awards boards is very similar to the DIS boards; there is a pull-down menu at the bottom of the page you can use to move from board to board. Henwen's Insights is one of the boards; it contains good information about doing the various parts of the program.

Hope that helps!
 
Yes it is very confusing.... To me it is not worth the time...
 
I am sorry you feel that way.I do not find the site confusing but alot of people do.

For me it is worth it I did not win the first round but as most people know I won a 4 day park hopper for May.

If you need help with the program I am always available as are other members who would like to see this program succeed.

You can post you questions or e-mail me directly or send me an private message.

this goes for anyone here at the DIS.

yep, the site is confusing. ;)

but after a few weeks you get the hang of it. sort of.

i guess Kris is indeed too busy just keeping everything going (it seems like so much work!), to have time to fix up the site to be more straightforward.

oh well.
 
You know what it is....

We're use to easy click and earn programs. Programs like this one that require daily visits and more time to complete make it confusing...

Know what I mean ???

After seeing that there were a few winners (including you) on these boards, seems that it might be a good program after all... I should have stuck in there...

;)
 
I joined Disneyawards as a fairly inexperienced person doing the reward type programs, maybe that was an advantage to me since I had to take the time and read the site through, I didn't and still don't think the site is confusing ....but again it could be cause I took the tour....clicked on the pics leading to other pages, and read everything before I started, and If i had any other questions I asked Kris or someone else with more experience than I . I don't know why , but I didn't have a hard time getting the hang of the site. I do understand where folks are coming from that are use to the other click through type programs, its hard to change routine and the way we do things , but this is a unique site, different from all the others I have seen , guess thats why I like it , but I understand how much work goes into this type of program both in time and energy, and expense. Kris is working real hard ( alot of hours ) to keep things going , but she is only one person and changes take time,and since I joined the program , Henwen's forum has been added to give some information on each page on the site. visit there, I use it quite often for helpful directions, and also on the forum boards under disney awards and goofy gossip. There certainly hasn't been any other rewards type sites that I have seen that takes the time to respond to questions , keeps the members informed , or adds such a personal touch in communication with its members as Disney Awards does. All I have ever gotten from the other reward sites I contacted were automatic responses or nothing at all pertaining to my individual question.
 
Thank you, thank you for all your help, I have spent the last hour taking all the suggestions and putting them to use. I can navigate the site now and know where the forums are. That is a quick way to find answers. Everyone is great about sharing thier knowledge- the same as this site!- The searches still worry me a bit, I haven't quite got the hang of it. Am I right that they need to be site related? And do I need to go to a site for each search performed or only the searches on Mamma? Thanks again,
 
I haven't found it at all ocmfusing. THe only thing I think would help more would be to be just a little more clear on how to submit your entries. For example, with the searches, at first I thought I could only enter a URL there, and wasn't sure where to submit for my searches.

MAL, where do I find the password or special word to register for Goofy's Gossip?
 
Mom and others interested....
there is another place to go on disneyawards to ask questions first hand and just general chit chat.. from homepage scroll down on left till you see ghostly gatherings...click on it ....will take you to page that shows you little floating ghost....click on that ghost and it will take you to chat area....folks pop in an out of there through out the day to try and help others out....
 
Sorry Mal,

but for some people they do need a secret word.

Kristi

Not sure why that is!
