Or just remember you can google 'banned from the dis' for some of this info.
Its time to say goodbye
The Dis is not the place it used to be.
Something has changed. While I cannot say exactly what it is (without getting many more in trouble) it is big.
It is a shame because this place used to be fun. It used to a be a place to get together with like-minded people and share information and stories.
Unfortunately that is no longer the case. From the rumors of mass bannings because of the uhn-dis to other bannings that simply do not make sense there are many strange things happening behind the scenes.
There are posters who are continually rude, who do nothing but bring nonsense to these boards, who are obviously some of the most small minded people in the world... yet they are never banned, their posts are never deleted by moderators and they are never given warnings. Is it because they are customers of Dreams Unlimited as has been suggested by some? Because the dis is afraid those posters would take their business elsewhere if they were banned? Yes, that is part of it.
I have seen the most ridiculous things get people banned
I have seen posters get banned because they are simply associated with a banned poster
I have seen posters banned because they asked why someone else was banned.
I have seen posters banned because they have heard of other 'unmentionable' websites and have asked about them on the dis.
... I have countless conversations with many about it and it falls on deaf ears.
Of course as many say this is not the public's board....those who own it can have any rules they like even rules that only apply to certain posters.
I have seen threads removed with one mod's reason 'that they didn't contribute to a particular forum and contained too much 'chat' and I have seen other mod's tell posters to open a thread on that same forum if they simply wish to 'chat'.
It seems each mod has different rules for their forums.
What I am saying has been posted many times at many places such as
the blondediaries dot com
dissedboards dot come the truth
Have you ever been accused of being sarcastic, argumentative, or a troll or countless other descriptions?
Many posters receive the **This board is for the sharing of ideas not attacking others** comment yet I could list 10 names off the top of my head who do nothing but attack others and each day, (or should I say each hour or each minute?) they are there doing it all over again.
Just recently a few 'stir the pot' posters got the GF FAQ thread closed. And right before that the poster Lives4Disney was banned and not even given a reason. This was one of the few genuine people who loved Disney and loved helping people with their questions. Unfortunately both the FAQ thread and the Chat thread seemed to attract those that didn't even like the GF very much but what they did like was acting superior and snarky and Beotchy. Or they would go onto EVERY SINGLE THREAD that had GF in the title just to bash it even though their one and only stay there was years ago…
If you are curious to who those posters may be just look at who isn't calling for the return of the FAQ thread...Posters such as those who love tink tatoos or who need a johnson for 23 Beach Club Villas.
Others would project their own feelings of …I guess you could call it inadequacies… onto everyone else's post and then complain about those posters.
I feel bad for those who didn't post on those threads but who would read them every day and use that information to plan a better trip.
And i feel bad that the dis just isn't the same anymore.
