Wilsonflyer, I appreciate your defense of Disney IT in aggregate- and agree that the park IT systems seem to work pretty well. But back to the thread at hand, how on earth can you defend Disney IT as competent (at least for DVC) when they won't put together a wait list availability tool as valuable and agile as this one, that was created by a single DVC member?
And their response to this extremely useful tool, is to demand that it be shut down?
How is that competent corporate IT priority management?
Seems to me that this is akin to a company insisting on rotary dial phones at all desks. Then, when some customer comes in and starts to use a smartphone in their lobby, insisting that it be shut off and that the customer use one of the rotary dial units when it becomes available in six hours. Please explain to me, how that isn't essentially what DVC is doing here...
There may be a reason Disney doesn't want this functionality out there. I challenge you to look at the entire problem without the colored glasses and see if you can figure out why.
We all tend to get tunnel-visioned about what benefits us most. It's human nature. Unfortunately, we don't always see the impact of the entire picture when we look only in our own best interests.
