I saw a thread on the trade board last week that stated that someone was giving away codes for the Mickey Mouse TV and the Red Space Suit. I sent a message to the creator of the thread and now I can't even find the thread itself! I'm bummed! This is probably the only opportunity that I will ever get to get the TV and suit! Does anybody know what happened?
 
The person that was willing to give the codes get upset and decided not to trade the codes anymore

Yes also too many people were asking for more than one and a lot of old accounts were reappearing or even new accounts by the same person just to get free stuff. I was kindly gifted by a kind fellow diser and now my wishlist is complete!

wow Spongeblair you are so lucky. Well. I PM'ed her to but I didn't get any.

You asked the owner of the thread to know? Some new people got code while old people (I mean that we are active since a long time :) ) got nada.
 
I change what I said I have just heard she usually sells the codes on eBay and now way did she have 300 pms in her inbox unless she has super powers because I know I can only hold 120. It is really sad to see someone get a lot of kids hopes up to just squash them.

He didn't ask her she posted about not being happy just before the thread got removed.
 
Hi,

Yes thread got pulled when it was apparent that there were not going to be codes given out. I too feel very bad for the kids that got their hopes up. So sad.......

It sounds like there were never codes to be given in the first place. Somebody just trying to get everybody excited. Well . . . . it worked!

She is NOT a scammer, I have known kitty for years and she is a very very very nice person. Please do not spread vicious rumors about someone you dont know, especially someone who has often given out free Park codes!

Me too. You should have seen the cards she sent me. She also sends me random free codes. She is very kind. People were just being greedy.

"can I have 4 space suits and 3 tv's"

Just ask for one. Maybe then she would have enough to give out.
 
Guys. Please don't start a fight thread. You might get banned you know...
 
That's easy to figure out. Don't give out codes to people who asked for more than one. Give the codes to people who asked for what she said she was going to give - one tv and one space suit. Because XYZ person asked for multiple codes, now I (who said that I would love to have a single TV code and a single red space suit code) am being punished.
 
It's okay. Please don't be mad with her. She did give to others. She didn't lie.
 
I think what frustrated a lot of people was that it was never indicated people were only allowed one code (and even Mal pointed that out when she got upset about people asking for more than one). I asked for one code for each (tv, suit) and I know my PM was read, but was never responded to, so I have no idea if she found my PM acceptable or not. I think a simple "hey guys, since so many people are asking for them, please limit the request to one code per person" or something similar instead of getting upset over something none of us knew there was a restriction to. Then there was a post angry at how ungrateful we were, when I saw tons of posts thanking her profusely and commenting on her generosity. In my PM, I also thanked her and commented her on her kindness. So to see a thread that really generalized the group as a whole (instead of addressing only the people she was having problems with) was kind of disheartening and I even saw a post from one or two people wondering what they did wrong and apologizing to her (when they really had no need to).

I realize that no one is entitled to be given a free code and no one is obligated to give out a free code. But personally, I think the situation could have been handled in a much better way because it did obviously cause some tension and obviously did make people question what was going on.

Ok I take back what I said I was just so upset because of the kids that cannot go to parks dreams were crushed she could of kept her promise and I agree she is nice sometimes but on this occasion not so nice. I didn't see the things I said to be vicious rumors. She gave me free park codes and I thanked her for that.

Didn't the boards go through the same thing with space suits and other items that somebody wanted to gift. Free stuff always brings out the best of some people and the worst in others

I agree with you I saw some people asking for what you said and when people see free stuff they grab that is the world today because little stuff is free and when you get the chance grab it but on this occasion it is not nice to grab and in this sharing community at the DIS I wasn't expecting to see people asking for soooo many.

Well, according to one thread, she did send out a few codes. But, then she did get upset.

Unfortunately, there are always problems with people being greedy and mean when someone is offering wanted items for free. :(
 
All I wanted was a Red Space. :(
