I think we go a little overboard on the acronyms sometimes. I mean, if it's something like "MK" or "POTC", most members know what you're talking about. But why do some members find it necessary to make EVERTHING an acronym. Even the obscure stuff. Sometimes it takes me forever to get through someone's post because I'm stopping to try and figure out what their acronym stands for.

ok Sorry for using the Acronim (SP)

Don't worry about it. Most people use acronyms without thinking and if I'm stuck, I'll ask! If someone gets upset, they can get over it. It's not the end of the world. :D

As far as your question goes, I didn't even know they had previously televised it, so I would be interested in finding out also. :wave:

It is too true. My father is leaving for the World tomorrow and he has not been in a few years. I had mentioned that they took out the lap bars in ToT and not to tell my younger brother as he is afraid of it already but was wanting to do it again and I thought that might scare him off.

My father replied thanks but what is ToT. I just assumed everyone one knew, and they don't...

(I could not agree with you more there is absolutely nothing wrong with using acronyms to make their lives easier and if you do not know then you should just ask and then we will all be happy see I am very happy HAVE A FANTASTIC DAY EVERYONE!)

i do agree with you, however it's one of those things that i picked up working in the parks! i used to have a horrible time with the acronyms, until i started hearing and using them everday at work... haha. :hammer: (and now i think SADCT more often than "share a dream come true"
