Take the Magic away

See and this is what I don't get! The CB has this bad reputation on the other forums but they ALL have their hot button issues too and are so totally not flame proof! Yet every once in a while someone from the "other forums" comes over here with an attitude like it doesn't happen anywhere but on the CB. So not true.

Yep, I agree! Heaven forbid you post about anything remotely bad happening on your trip to WDW on some of the other boards. Personally, I think there are a lot of CM's just waiting to pounce on anyone who might dare to suggest something bad might be Disney's fault. ;) Damage control, you know. Not to mention refillable mugs, pool hopping, crock pots in the rooms...or apparently alcohol.

I'd feel much safer complaining about something like that on the CB board.
 
First off, welcome to the DIS! :grouphug:

When I joined I was pretty much looking for info on our trip. I would occasionally take a peek at the CB, and honestly I was a bit intimidated! (Even though I saw, and even got involved in, some heated debates on other threads.)

But, once the trip was over, I started hanging out over here, and found that I love it! There are so many wonderful people here, and a few nuts too. You've already met a few of the great ones who have already posted on this thread. As for the nuts....one one hand they make things more interesting, and on the other, they're in real life too. You can ignore them, let them know you don't agree with them, or just watch the train wreck as it unfolds! I find myself doing all three at different times.

:)


You sound like me--this is exactly what happened when I joined in.

I really don't think the CB is any worse than any other board here. They all have certain issues that get people going. I also don't think the demise of the debate board made the CB any worse either.
 
Thank you all for your wise and informative words. I will accept them with open arms!:)

p.s. What is a "tag"?

Tag's are the little sayings under your user name in pretty colors given to people by the tag fairies. I don't think there are any reputable sightings of the tag fairies, the tags just appear one day.

They are taken from something you wrote although sometimes they may be modified slightly. Many people covet them but I don't know that begging for a tag will help you to get one any faster.

NOw you have me wondering whether I am a wonderful person or a nut. :lmao: I think my BF would put me in the nut category.:rotfl2:

You can write one of your own once you hit 500 posts. You can only do one by yourself and not in color tho. I change mine periodically. SPeaking of, I have a good one in mind...:rotfl: I am afraid of what kind of tag the fairy would give me...LOL


WORDS OF ADVICE....get to really know the person before getting chummy in the chat room or PM's. You never know who is lurking behind a user name.
 

When a trip is over and you are not planning, there really is no other place to go to than the community board. I agree that at times some posters are rather harsh, but if you are that type of person who believes that everyone has his or her opinion - you may not wish to visit the threads that focus on debates. Recently, I decided it was best to stay away from those threads. Other than that, I love it here. :goodvibes
