Quite honestly this is basically the same as maxpass in dl. Slightly higher cost and obviously the additional cost of the tier one rides. But just like with maxpass; you don't have to use it. Personally, I will get the genie+ but I won't be paying extra for the tier 1 rides.

I think the easiest thing to do is not buy Genie+ or just not go. Sadly, there will be enough people who will buy into it so I think it’s here to stay.
No it isn't. MaxPass at DLR was almost exclusively for top tier rides. The plan that's comparable in cost to MaxPass is for everything EXCEPT the top tier rides.

Quite honestly, this is basically the same as the Fastpass system Walt Disney World has had for over 22 years, except now they are going to charge for it and you get even less than you did with the free system, because the most popular rides won't even be included unless you pay even more. It is outrageous and we can't let this mindless grasping for profit continue.

So don't go. No petition is going to get them to stop this. The only way is for it to actually lose them money.
If you took the time to actually read the petition @ http://chng.it/sVqTkwdJcz you would see that it calls for those who sign to boycott Genie+, precisely because you are right...we must make this bad decision cost the company to lose money before we completely lose the magic in Disney that is left.

Why would that anger you? That's my favorite part of this! I can stay somewhere much cheaper without getting shafted. Win-win. (For me, that is. It's a loss for Disney)

I did read the petition. Just not getting genie+ will do nothing. If you still go to the parks then it will have no effect. I'm sure disney has done countless guest surveys and the consensus is people are willing to pay for it.

Going to Disney and not buying Genie+ is not hurting them. You would be paying the same $ you were before, while accepting that you will receive less for it. The only way this move would ever be reversed is if it causes enough guests to refrain from going altogether that the loss offsets the additional revenue they get from G+ and IAS

All of you are absolutely correct! If people will not purchase / pay for Genie / Genie+ Disney makes no money or not enough to make the project worth the effort and it will go away. First, however, it will be implemented then it's up to the visitors to not utilize it and allow it to fail despite Disney advertising propaganda.

Great! The petition will make its numbers, people in charge will see it. Then the same thing will happen like every other petition... Not a gosh darn thing.
Petitions are the one thing more useless than all of congress.

LOL...and complaining on a forum us better how?

Wasn't complaining, just pointing out how useless petitions are.
And are you new here? Complaining is 90 percent of this forum. Go read the Galactic Starcruiser thread...

It's not, because Genie is more limited and there was always a free FastPass option which is no longer the case. The only benefit of MaxPass was not having to physically walk to the FastPass kiosks.
