$15 a month and have been paying that for 9 years so yes, I had to pay and have an active account in order to beta test. Again, you cannot fault the ones who are working. THEY did not choose who or when to do the beta. THEY did not ask to be placed in a position with little to no power. They...

Just to comment on a few things. I haven't read the entire thread just the first post. As with anything that is in Beta, it is good to remember that it is in BETA. It's not ready for release and thus there are going to be issues. Speaking from experience, having been in a few video game betas...

Something Weird? This don't look good... *picks up phone*

IF they I would be truly saddened (and a bit angered). I was born physically handicapped, have only used a GAC once and am currently fighting to get on Disability (standing up in my prosthetic for 8 hours+ isn't always fun or easy) and yet I don't take advantage of anyone in that way. People...

Disney has never been a full week, at least not in my household. Going back to the mid 90s, we had 8 days setup as vacation due to my parents timeshare. 2 days were travel days which left us with 6 days. 1 day at each Disney park, 2 days for Uni and SW, with the last day as "random" (extra park...

I know that this past week there were major issues at the parks. The CM's there were telling guests to return to the front desk as it was an issue with the room key. This was not the case as guests could use the key for dining, room charging and room entry. As for problems with the room keys...

This so much this. Twister isn't "classic". Saw it "coming soon" in 1997. Was mad they removed Ghostbusters. Queue line impressed me when I finally did ride it in 2001. That being said, the queue was the best part. Show is beyond lame and boring.

Worked at RFC at DD for a year about 6-7 years ago. Worse company I was ever employed with, and I work for the mouse now. In a year's time I saw so many underhanded things done by them to their own staff that it's amazing how some even stick around. The money I guess is what the main draw is but...

On December 3rd-4th the reservation system for WDW resorts will be down from approximately 6PM EST DEc.3rd til 7-10 AM EST Dec.4th. thought I'd share :D

wow, what a quote there....When I worked at RFC, we had timers on the program we used as Hosts of the parties that were sat. They turned red when the average wait time for parties were reached based on how many in the group. basic rule of thumb being 2-6 people were generally 45-90 minutes...

There are some elevator mechanics on hand at the parks. Elevators sure, not positive on escalators as there are not really that many in the parks. But as someone who pointed out, those things are in CONSTANT use. Kind of like some of the lights. One resort, the lights are tied into the ceiling...

I know someone who works merchandise for that area. I've been told that it's rather easy to get up there and they have witnessed someone going up a few months ago actually. A manager was sent up to follow/find the guests but obviously, there are a plenty of areas to sneak and hide in without...

Well, I read an article a few weeks ago of the top 10 theme parks worldwide. Disney took the top 8, with all four theme parks from Florida making the top 5-6 if I recall, the last two were Universal: 9-was Uni Japan and 10 was IOA but barely beating out Disney's California Adventure, which just...

When I had my Jeep(s) I left them unlocked since they were soft tops. trust me. losing $55 in that instance would be much preferable to the $400-$500 for a new top. That's min mum. Now, obviously, this was a mini-van so those rules don't apply, just throwing that out to those who wonder why cars...

When I was younger, much much younger, used to be in a wheelchair while at Disney all the time (long story for another time). During the parade one year at MGM (yes MGM it wasn't Hollywood yet), it had to be 95 or 96, the muscle guy from Toy Story came up to me and pointed at me then him. He...

huh this is what I came to say XD Yes system was down both Thursday and today for changes to the reservation system regarding the changes made by the ADA for booking reservations. System should be up and running as normal now.

That would be nice to pass on to the populace. Almost hit a guy the other morning cause he was running AGAINST traffic. /sigh

and just like that: http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2012/02/part-of-new-fantasylands-storybook-circus-will-open-by-late-march-at-magic-kingdom-park/

they don't really, compared to many of the other jobs along similar lines out there CM's get rather low wages. I know of two personally that work ay leasy 6 days a week sometimes 7 just to make enough to pay bills.

Rumor I heard is that it will be happening sometime next year. But it won't be in the rooms, more likely in the main lobby and the main pool (the main hotspots). Last time I was in Boardwalk, though, I attempted to use the internet on my iPhone while waiting for my parents in the lobby and was...
