By the way, I am amazed that this thread has over 100 replies... crazy. You'd think I was extolling the virtues of using Fast Passes past their return window, or making multiple ADRs during the same period of time:lol:

I thought it was about pool hopping and those buy it once and use it for a lifetime resort mugs:lookaroun.

I had one of those, but I filled it with pie, then I dropped it in the pool, but the pool was filled with dangerous marinade, so I could not get it back out.

Surely after something this devastating, you just moved on to the next pool, right?:D

Maybe I'll have them write "I'm going to Walt's This Knee World" That shoudn't cause a problem should it:lookaroun

It's a similar situation to businesses who want to associate themselves with the Super Bowl without paying the fee to the NFL to say they're "The Official (Insert product type here) of the NFL/Super Bowl." They get around it by calling The Super Bowl "The Big Game." I sorta wonder if the NFL has tried to trademark the phrase "The Big Game" yet, though I'd assume they probably can't, since they're not the ones who originally started calling The Super Bowl "The Big Game."

In any event, what I see a lot of people use to get around any copyright and/or trademark infringement is to reference "The Mouse." As in "It's my 5th birthday and I'm gonna see The Mouse," or "I'm spending my birthday with The Mouse." Even so bold as to write "I'm visiting Mickey at his Florida House." As long as you don't add "Mouse" to "Mickey" you're in the clear. Stuff like that.

Back to your original post, I'm kinda surprised the website doesn't have a filter that automatically rejects text that may get them in trouble. I mean, if WDW Magic has a filter that automatically deletes the f word, I'm surprised the Disney site doesn't immediately bounce back a request for text on their shirts that violates their terms. Sorta makes you wonder what would've happened had you wanted a shirt that read "It's my 5th birthday, and 'Mickey' can lick my *****, in Sunny Orlando Florida!"

Give it up. No one is going to agree with you on this.

I agree with him. Absolutely and 100%.

So do I! I went to the link and it's pretty clearly stated that the name "Disney" cannot be used on the shirt. The OP can use the excuse that it "was 11:30pm", but that still makes it the OP's responsibility for the mistake, not Disney's. I also agree that it's not Disney's responsibility to track down everyone who doesn't read the instructions. The fact that the site said the order was "completed" does not necessarily mean that it was shipped.

wbc you and people like you are the reason I rarely visit this site anymore. What happened to the sweetness of this forum? WDWMagic used to get me so excited for my upcoming vacation? People like you just ruin the experience by creating drama where it is not needed. :veryconfu

What did he do to "create drama"?? :veryconfu He raised some valid points which no one was able to debate on it's own merits so they resorted to personal attacks instead. How is that WBC's fault?

Good idea about the "I'm going to see Mickey" although I will be calling before we order it to make sure there will be no problems.

I think I may also have a shirt made that says "Arrest me! I am wearing an unofficial Walt Disney World Resort Tshirt" and see what happens:lookaroun

That sounds bitter. I thought you weren't upset about not being able to get the shirt printed...only about them not emailing you about YOUR mistake.
