What is Micechat?

I don't mean to start a fight or anything, but I am a member of many message boards that is about Disney and I have found that if I want to get down on DL, then I just need to come here. I am so surprised and saddend when I come here and read how many "fights" are going on about various DL stuff. Why do people on here continue to go to DL and then come on here and complain. It's not like the DMV and we HAVE to go there. This is a place that we choose to pay money to so that we can enjoy it on vacations or whatever.
Have you ever had a friend that you cared about so much and someone else came along and started talking trash about your friend? How do you feel? Probably defensive for them right? That's how I feel when I come onto these boards and read the bashing that happens.
It would be nice to come on here and read some really fun, positive things about the "Happiest Place on Earth!"

This place is actually in my experience one of the more friendly boards around. The users do demand excellence from the parks but that's because the parks have put themselves up to those standards of excllence. That's not to say that micechatters don't enjoy them. Some people visit everyday.

Re: What is Micechat?

I dont think people talk trash about Disneyland itself, its more on the lines of how bad of a shape it has evolved into over the years. Just like a friend, weve seen it go to a place it shouldnt be when its meant for so much more....we talk because we care

As with many things in life, you see what you choose to see. I have been a part of this board for about a year now and have seen some negative posts, yet the good far outweighs the bad. Sure, there are many posts on why someone dislikes certain things. I just choose to ignore most of them and just go and enjoy the park.

Re: What is Micechat?

I have this nephew. He's really a great kid; bright, funny, tons of potential. He excelled in sports in school and has always been a point of pride for the family. We all love him very much. Lately, though, he's been hanging out with a certain crowd who have had a bit of a negative impact on him. My nephew, he's still a good kid, but he's become kind of lazy, lost his focus, and doesn't work as hard to achieve his goals anymore, which aren't even nearly as high as the goals he used to set for himself. It's sad, because I still love him a lot and even though I'm disappointed in how he's behaving now in some ways, I still love that kid with all my heart. Even through all of the troubles, I still see that great, shining kid full of spirit and determination hiding there just under the surface, and I know that this is just a phase which he'll grow out of and there will be better times, like the good old times, ahead. So I complain about him sometimes, but never let go or give up on him.



For some reason, that seemed to be relevant here. Huh, not sure why though...

Re: What is Micechat?

there are many great threads on the site that are not negative at all. For example, look at this thread about the Horses of Disneyland.

Or how about this one about all the characters in Disney Theme Parks around the World.

99% of the trip reports in the Disneyland section are 87% positive, so I'm not 100% sure where you're coming from.

Re: What is Micechat?

I know what the OP is talking about. It's not that the bad outweighs the good, or we wouldn't hang out here, but there are plenty of critical moments where it seems like people just wanna complain about how things are.

That's why I found the whole DoM alarm so odd - we're very critical as a community, picking apart every tiny detail.

Micechat is a cold hearted bitch. She'll leave you broke and bleeding in the gutter....for me its about being as stupid as I want at all times. I laugh at everything I post. I'm so funny. Welcome!

Re: What is Micechat?

Let's see, I've been around for about the past two and a half years. With that I have seen all the changes that it's been through, people come and go and I still stick around and there's many others that have too. So a place can't be that bad if so many people keep coming back and spending time here. Really in a community this big, you chose the people that you talk to, you chose the threads you read, you can chose to scan past certain posts and its easy to avoid things that bother you, you don't have to read anything.

This is a good place, with a great deal of good people. This isn't necessarily for everyone but for those it is, they can always find a place that they can fit in.

Re: What is Micechat?

As others have said, in any community this large you are going to have to take the good with the bad. MiceChat is NOT your typical Disney website, but obviously we are doing something right.

And also with anything, it's the bad stuff that get's the most attention.
