CEO, normally I agree with your posts, but on this one I have to disagree. This board is here to discuss Disney issues, not to talk about one's feelings on a hurricane. You've no idea what's going on in the mind of the person on the other side of the keyboard. I have dozens of friends and several family members, all who were in the path of the hurricane, and yet when I was posting to WDW Magic, I was asking about Disney, not about their safety or about the safety of anyone else.FutureCEO said:The world is not going to end people, It's just a hurricane. Bad words after a Cat. 4. Just a place. Personal, I think you would show a little bit of compassion for the people in the hurricanes path then a theme park.

There are a number of members on this board who are very focused on giving people a hard time about not being "compassionate" enough, and it's frankly getting on my nerves. The compassion is being shown elsewhere and that's where it's important, not here. I'm not saying we should be totally insensitive, but as you said, life isn't going to end, and we can get on talking about Disney stuff.

Just as some people go to WDW to get away from the real world, some of us come here for the same reason. And to ask questions or have worry that a special place in your life might have been damaged, I see nothing wrong with that.FutureCEO said:The world is not going to end people, It's just a hurricane.

I usually I don't like to get involved in arguments against other members but I think everyone has been showing plenty of compassion to those affected by Carley because many of us here, myself included were affected. There is a thread on the ChitChat board and people are asking, and checking to see if they have heard from other members. You have to remember that this is also a Disney board, and while my power was out, while I wondered what happened north of me in Charlotte county, I also wondered the state of Disney. That is just a natural question to ask for any Disney fan.FutureCEO said:The world is not going to end people, It's just a hurricane. Bad words after a Cat. 4. Just a place.
