You might just want to distil the information out of the articles instead.

I don't think it is appropriate to continue to berate the LP-ers. It makes our community look insular and unwilling to accept newcomers. I for one like to hear what is going on at the resort. It is no different to receiving the daily LP emails or Latest.

Originally Posted By leemac You really should read the Community Standards (the link is above the message box). It save a lot of hassle. The real problem with the scattergun approach of posting is that it makes it difficult for people to comment on all of them. My tip would be to try and keep related matters in the same thread. Enjoy LP! Lee

I mean... you are constantly looking down on other posters including myself, and that does not reflect that well about you either, no matter how correct you are on the ifo you provide. >>You would if you could... >> No, I would not. Too much work and not enough appreciation.

There is a difference between correcting factual inaccuracies and berating someone. No idea what the second part of that sentence is supposed to mean. <<Too much work and not enough appreciation.>> If you only do it for the appreciation then I guess you are right.

Anyhow in light of the cost of visiting Japan I can't imagine that the tourist traffic to that country from the rest of Asia is as high as anyone would expect. TDLFAN I never feel superior over any other LP-er. Anyone that has met me would hopefully get that opinion. My viewpoint is almost at polar opposites to the majority (including you) and so it might just be that. Your photos might not be my cup of tea but there are plenty of people that must visit from site from the various links you post around the Disney online community.

Originally Posted By TDLFAN >>TDLFAN I never feel superior over any other LP-er.<< ...And since I've had the pleasure of meeting you in person, I never got that idea of you Lee, but sometimes you do have a way of presenting your facts in a most condicending manner that make others feel berated or "looked down on". SuperDry, I do know others appreciate my efforts here, reason why I do post my personal pics online for all to see, but unnecesary comments like Lee's "if you could, you would" speak volumes and are an attempt to undermine others' inputs on these boards. But I don't care since I will continue to add my 2 cents on these boards as long as the rightful owner (Doobie) feels it's ok for me to be here.

Originally Posted By LuvDatDisney TDLFAN, I for one, greatly enjoy your pics as well as your commentary. If I have one complaint is that there are so many often in one of your pictorials (why does that word sound so dirty?). But I know there's a simple answer for that, I don't have to look at them all. Unfortunately, the quality is so high (unlike the upkeep at WDW)that I force myself to look at them all!

That is your take on it and as always you are entitled to your viewpoint. If someone is going to make a factual inaccuracy or post something that I disagree with I will post my thoughts. Plain and simple.
