If you find this thread so pointless, why bother posting on it? If I have that opinion of a thread, I just move on. But I guess you wanted to include your statement about bitter people. Good job!

Answer: what the right hand does is irrelevant to the goings on of the left hand or the feet.

Disneyland will be receiving it's version of Fastpass+ later this year. And there is no need on the ships. They already use rfid for everything and there is no need for the long range capabilities onboard.
DLR's FP system is totally different and you know it. They will not be getting rid of legacy FP.
Running around like a fool? You must have been doing it wrong.
But yes, I did prefer a system that let me ride ALL of the headiners by fastpass, many of them more than once.
But yes, to each their own.

I know it's different. That is why I said "their version."
As for legacy Fastpass... Just give them time. Remember legacy Fastpass and FP+ both existed here for a time too.

Actually, that is probably an individual preference. For the family that has just one or two days at the park or due to work or personal reasons cannot plan a vacation 60+ days in advance, the paper system was possibly more fair to them. Additionally, for anyone technically challenged with smart phones or PCs, obviously the paper system would be easier.
For others there is a certain sense of security knowing that in 60 days, their family will show up at one of the parks and be guaranteed at least 3 attractions that do not involve an insane wait in the standby lines.
There are other substantial differences, not the least of which is that there won't be advance reservations. No waking up to schedule a 2 minute ride 2 months in advance only to find out you can't access the system.
Absolutely a personal preference, which I think is lost on locals and people who make it to the park many days over the course of the year. But for the occasional traveler who has 1 day in a given park every couple years, the tiering is maddening.

Unless you're booking a FP for frozen or mine train there's no need to do that. And if we were still using Legacy FP you would have needed to get to the park at opening and get your Fastpass within the first hour of operation or would have missed out.
The only ones that ran out in the first hour were the hottest ticket items (like FEA and 7DMT are now). It's not true that others ran out that fast unless you were there during peak crowds.

Exactly. Thats the point. Only the hottest ticket items ran out within the first hour. And those are also the only attractions you need to book two months in advance. Looking at tomorrow I can book every attraction in the magic kingdom except mine train. Heck I can still book every attraction for today except mine train and enchanted tales with belle.
Just because it's possible doesn't mean I could count on it happening on the one day I happen to be there. I could almost always count on it before.

Guilty.Well, to be fair, Daylight Saving Time has been around for years but people still mistakenly refer to it as Daylight Savings Time. An extra 's', an extra hour............

All of us are here because we have nothing better to do. The sooner people realize that and stop criticizing people for criticizing things, the better off we'll all be.
Do you not have anything better to do than bring logic into this argument .
