Decided to remove all my photos. Thought I would try and share images that would bring good feelings and memories, But its not worth it when it causes bickering,ill feelings, and arguments. At this point in time i'll sit back and watch everyone else post and hopefully try to provide a more encouraging environment for newer users.
Dude seriously, I totally just sat back for my first few months, and it was totally worth it because when I had the feel of the lounge I loved it. You seem like a cool dude with not freaking out on people when they gave you advice and handled funny remarks with a grain of salt. So I encourage you to just sit back, enjoy the stupid things we say, the beautiful pics folks post, and all the awesome info mousewaiters have to share, and once you have the feel for things have a blast here. Patience rocks. - madsdad

Dude, you're totally right. ....why do i suddenly feel like Crush? - FindMeAtTheCove 237.3 #1140 6:01PM
At this time thats all I care to do. Its not worth it to me to come under heavy fire after contributing images that I thought people enjoyed. I will continue to visit the parks and endorse my love of disney, But right now the "senior" MWers have kinda turned me off to sharing it here. - marineed07 32.3 #4268 6:02PM
Are you wearing a sweater cuz you sound hawt. - madsdad 1124.9 #73 6:03PM
Imma Bedazzle you a shirt that SAYS that! β¨Patienceβ¨Rocks!β¨ - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint 1798.9 #42 6:04PM
uhm fyi sweater comment was not to you lol. And that's cool if you take it that way, but the MW'rs were just trying to help you out. Some people get upset, some take it in, just depends. It's just feedback. But either way, enjoy your time at the parks. - madsdad 1124.9 #73 6:04PM
I can't stand it when newer users point the finger at us senior users. We've been here longer, so therefore we know the lounge and what's allowed and not. Why don't you take the helpful advice you've been given and try to make this a positive experience. Posts like these bring negativity into the lounge and it's not warranted or wanted. You're just complaining now because you took a pic on POTC while using your flash. We're massive Disney fans here. Clearly we won't be impressed with you or anyone else breaking park rules to get a picture. Madsdad offered you some great advice. Take some time to learn how the lounge works, and start posting again when you can handle it. - DisneyFanZoe 1096.7 #75 6:09PM
lol no im not that heated. I pick my battles wisely. I figure its kind of like a click here. Certain people will get others of a group and then its like ants on a grasshopper. I know im a new kid on the street, But hey learning as you go is a two way street. I wanted to contribute some of the more awesome photos im still processing, but at this time they'll remain in my "vault" lol. - marineed07 32.3 #4268 6:09PM
again my case in point. I already apologized and removed the original post. No where did i make mention of it and it somehow magically appears again. - marineed07 32.3 #4268 6:11PM
I don't see it as a clique. Many of us here have met, formed bonds or reply back and forth to each other and therefore get to 'know' one another. So many people come on here, not saying you, but make posts and never comment back. Nev adding to the Lounge. The people are what MAKES this a Lounge. Yesterday some came on here, had been a member since Jan, didn't bother to add ANYTHING to the Lounge, let alone make a profile pic and asked for tickets for an event. Had they been here, sharing, i bet they would have gotten no less than 5 offers. Stick around. This REALLY is an awesome bunch. You added some great pics- just follow the MW and DL rules and you will be cool. Thanks. *nibbles on a churro* - HandMeAChurroImmaFaint 1798.9 #42 6:15PM
Well said HMACIF!! If you removed the post it won't show up. Most people saw your apology and everyone was kind to you. You came back with the whole copyright, federal law post and confused us. I think if you stayed cool, things would've been fine. There are really, no nasty people here. This is an amazing community, filled with wonderful people. I think it would be a shame if you let your feelings get unnesscarily hurt, and missed out on this. - DisneyFanZoe 1096.7 #75 6:21PM
I actually think you are stand up guy. It just takes a while to understand peoples humor and sarcasm. Just watch and learn and you will be fine. - vincentchase

@vincentchase I agree. But I learn best by doing. Cant learn to fly unless u fall.. Hopefully from not to high up the tree lol im fine with a shrub. - marineed07 32.3 #4268 6:54PM
But what if the shrub is on the edge of a cliff??? π±π±π±π±π± - Slotherini 886.9 #99 6:55PM
And on a side note, I enjoy your photos. - Slotherini 886.9 #99 6:56PM
@slotherini if its on the edge of a cliff.. I guess ill just end up cursing like donald then hahaha. But thanks for the vote of confidence I truly appreciate it =) - marineed07 32.3 #4268 7:04PM
Ah Gotcha. Too many acronyms floating around. Its not a matter of being BH.. Its a matter of of trying to make ammends and getting buttons pushed. - marineed07 32.3 #4268 8:00PM
That's what I do. Today I've been a bit more chatty, but for the most part I'll share my two cents in every now and then. I hope you don't get discouraged. I have been here for a few months and I rarely talk... I'm just a creepy lurker. :P - kanastarr

You have made plenty of nice and fun comments, not a creepy lurker. :) - madsdad 1124.9 #73 8:28PM
Thank you, Madsdad!! You're very sweet to say that. - kanastarr 88.6 #3156 8:35PM
Hey there, you didn't need to do that. Let me put my two cents in and hope you find it useful. There's a certain culture and ways in the lounge. If you post nonlive pictures, (etc. 10 in 30 mins) it kinda creates a distasteful taste in the lounge because we enjoy live pictures, for example evening pictures in the evening, morning pictures in morning and so forth. When we see a day time picture in the night time, it's not as requested nor desired. Flash pictures create a chaos since there shouldn't be any in dark attractions. Sitting back and observing is a good thing because it'll help on how you can participate yourself. I enjoyed your pictures, I just think you just need to get the feel for the lounge a bit better than just diving in and posting happy. I made mistakes when I first started and it really took me some time to observe to finally get the feeling of how things work here and I don't regret it because this app means so much to me! Hope you can have a great time on your trips and in the lounge - MarshaMouse

By all means post away when u are at the parks, just don't complain lol and believe me, when u meet senior MWers, you'll see they really are great people. All those that intimidated me at the beginning I truly love and look up to, yes MrsBlue rocks and she really is the sweetest and kind amazing person ππππ - MarshaMouse 2866.1 #15 6:11PM
Im by no means saying the entire senior users are that way. There actually a lot of great people here. MarshaMouse u truly have an inspiring story and its great (I watched your video) Handmeachurroimmafaint your comments actually got me to literally lol. Madsdad you never rubbed me the wrong way. And for most things i take with a grain of salt. TJ awesome cat. But in time my vaults will open like the classic disney movies ;) - marineed07 32.3 #4268 6:22PM
@MarshaMouse I tried to post at the parks.. but battery died on me trying to learn how to give standby ride updates. Actually had to stay next to an outlet in Mickey and Friends till about 1220 Sunday morning because I had taken a picture of where I Parked on my iphone and it completely drained. My significant other wasnt too pleased with that (even though the image was on her phone- how does that work? now that I think of it she was mad at me and it was on her phone and she took the image)I just now caught she flipped it on me! - marineed07 32.3 #4268 6:58PM

Don't do that... *hands you a tissue and a π Hey, have you done a 101 about using the reply button?? If not, might be a good one to do.... π - DisneyFanZoe 1096.7 #75 8:13PM
There's a learning curve with the lounge, you can't just go onto a basketball court and start playing like Jordan. Trust me stick around everyone, has a bad start here. - chris.

4 sure... I understand that. Just when a person clicks thats when people should register and back off. That doesn't seem to be the case here. It's kinda like the aol days where people talk trash online... Well needless to say that ended and aol became almost non existent.. Like yahoo.. MySpace etc.... Kinda turns people off you know? And they get over it. I'm just chillen and dialing back on the throttle in here. - marineed07 32.3 #4268 8:30PM
Oh, is this still happening? Yawn. I'm stretching out my reporting thumbs and getting them loose. Just sayin... π - Mimmy
