I have to go off on a bit of a rant here toward those members of the community who feel compelled to find something negative in absolutely every single thing that Disney does on the WDW property and choose terms and phrases to emphasize the negative in nearly every thread they post in.
- Do you know that they 'cut down' the tree(s) and put them in a wood chipper vs. Disney removed them to the tree farm for potential re-use somewhere else on the property? In the absence of facts too many comments just go for the negative and accusatory tone.
- You do understand that this whole area is a construction zone and during construction things get messy before they get pretty- it's kind of how it works.
This looks like it was nothing more than a water pump to keep the construction area dry that seems to have overheated and caused a small fire. Stuff like this happens on constructions site everywhere all the time.
I've seriously considered abandoning this board altogether a number of times over the last year, not because of the way it's run but because I'm pretty much fed up with the growing portion of the community who seem to be incapable of anything but negative thought toward Disney. When the dialog reaches the point where nearly every post from a growing number of participants is negative and attacking Disney it gets old and looses it's effect. When folks choose to make it personal and start attacking individual people by name, you loose me. When you complain or have negative commentary about absolutely everything you no longer have any credibility. And then when others try to temper the dialog with some reasonable balance they too are attacked.
I think this thread may have just pushed me over the edge. It was a simple news piece about a piece of equipment that overheated in a construction zone in the park. Unfortunately it was turned into yet another complaining fest by the usual suspects.
It's become impossible to find any real information amongst the never ending whining and complaints that fill nearly every thread.
