Time ?'s and GAC?'s

[livndisney]

Wow! I am really saddened tonight to log on and find such direct attacks to someone trying to share her experience. It is VERY difficult to ascertain the intended tone on an Internet message board, but I can clearly understand the tone of some of the most recent posts on this thread as attacking one individual. If there is a concern about any post on any thread, we each have the right to tag it to be reported to the moderators. They will handle it. Anybody here on the disAbilities board is only trying to help by sharing our own experiences. Readers should take each response as they wish - you may agree with some but not others.

Let's keep to answering the questions from the original post and not getting down on each other.

Having met and spoken with Piper several times face to face-I can assure you there was no "tone". Piper is a very sweet lady who has done nothing but try to help people both on this board and in real life. It is sad that a couple of people feel the need to be contrary. Funny how it always seems to be the same people who feel their experiences are what everyone else experiences. Piper nasty?

I have to totally agree with you on this! I almost posted myself when I read the reply ( the same negative one she gives everytime)
Often the op has not even mentioned trying to shorten their wait time??
The really is a bitter negative tone to it, I almost feel like its trying to scare people off from getting one!!

Well, I think Piper was only trying to give accurate advice. I can tell you that last month, December 9-14, I experienced very long waits with my ECV and GAC. Much longer than the standby lines. It was not at all attractions, but it was the case at a lot of them. If you want to blast me, go ahead. I am just truthfully reporting what my experience was.

I am closing this thread because it has become negative.

It is not OK to attack other posters.

I have never gotten any angry personal messages from people who were pleasantly surprised by having shorter waits than they expected. And, no one has ever posted/said they did not go because they felt people on this board discouraged them.

I have gotten PMs from people who felt mislead because they read posts promising short waits. They expected shortened waits, planned for shortened waits and were not prepared for sometimes waiting longer.
