Sunday Night Disney Trivia Chat: Feb. 5, 2012 9:00 PM ET - PassPorter - A Community of Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Cruise Line, and General Travel Forums
As of January 1, 2019, we have closed our forums. This is a decision we did not come to lightly, but it is necessary. The software our forums run on is just too out-of-date and it poses a significant security risk. The server software itself must be updated, and it cannot be without removing the forums.
So it is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our long-running forums. They came online in 2000 and brought together so many wonderful Disney fans. We had friendships form, careers launch, couples marry, children born ... all because of this amazing community.
Thank you to each of you who were a part of this community. You made it possible.
And a very special thank you to our Guides (moderators), past and present, who kept our forums a happy place to be. You are the glue that held everything together, and we are forever grateful to you. Thank you aliceinwdw, Caldercup, MrsM, WillCAD, Fortissimo, GingerJ, HiddenMickey, CRCrazy, Eeyoresmom, disneyknut, disneydani, Cam22, chezp, WDWfan, Luvsun, KMB733, rescuesk, OhToodles!, Colexis Mom, lfredsbo, HiddenMickey, DrDolphin, DopeyGirl, duck addict, Disneybine, PixieMichele, Sandra Bostwick, Eeyore Tattoo, DyanKJ130, Suzy Q'Disney, LilMarcieMouse, AllisonG, Belle*, Chrissi, Brant, DawnDenise, Crystalloubear, Disneymom9092, FanOfMickey, Goofy4Goofy, GoofyMom, Home4us123, iamgrumpy, ilovedisney247, Jennifer2003, Jenny Pooh, KrisLuvsDisney, Ladyt, Laughaholic88, LauraBelle Hime, Lilianna, LizardCop, Loobyoxlip, lukeandbrooksmom, marisag, michnash, MickeyMAC, OffKilter_Lynn, PamelaK, Poor_Eeyore, ripkensnana, RobDVC, SHEANA1226, Shell of the South, snoozin, Statelady01, Tara O'Hara, tigger22, Tink and Co., Tinkerbelz, WDWJAMBA, wdwlovers, Wendyismyname, whoSEZ, WildforWD, and WvuGrrrl. You made the magic.
We want to personally thank Sara Varney, who coordinated our community for many years (among so many other things she did for us), and Cheryl Pendry, our Message Board Manager who helped train our Guides, and Ginger Jabour, who helped us with the PassPorter-specific forums and Live! Guides. Thank you for your time, energy, and enthusiasm. You made it all happen.
There are other changes as well.
Why? Well, the world has changed. And change with it, we must. The lyrics to "We Go On" for IllumiNations say it best:
We go on to the joy and through the tears
We go on to discover new frontiers
Moving on with the current of the years.
We go on
Moving forward now as one
Moving on with a spirit born to run
Ever on with each rising sun.
To a new day, we go on.
It's time to move on and move forward.
PassPorter is a small business, and for many years it supported our family. But the world changed, print books took a backseat to the Internet, and for a long time now it has been unable to make ends meet. We've had to find new ways to support our family, which means new careers and less and less time available to devote to our first baby, PassPorter.
But eventually, we must move on and move forward. It is the right thing to do.
So we are retiring this newsletter, as we simply cannot keep up with it. Many thanks to Mouse Fan Travel who supported it all these years, to All Ears and MousePlanet who helped us with news, to our many article contributors, and -- most importantly -- to Sara Varney who edited our newsletter so wonderfully for years and years.
And we are no longer charging for the Live Guides. If you have a subscription, it's yours to keep for the lifetime of the Live Guides at no additional cost. The Live Guides will stay online, barring server issues and technical problems, for all of 2019.
That said, PassPorter is not going away. Most of the resources will remain online for as long as we can support them, and after that we will find ways to make whatever we can available. PassPorter means a great deal to us, and to many of you, and we will do our best to keep it alive in whatever way we can. Our server costs are high, and they'll need to come out of our pockets, so in the future you can expect some changes so we can bring those costs down.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for your amazing support over the years. Without you, there's no way us little guys could have made something like this happen and given the "big guys" a run for their money. PassPorter was consistently the #3 guidebook after the Unofficial and Official guides, which was really unheard of for such a small company to do. We ROCKED it thanks to you and your support and love!
If you miss us, you can still find some of us online. Sara started a new blog at DisneyParkPrincess.com -- I strongly urge you to visit and get on her mailing list. She IS the Disney park princess and knows Disney backward and forward. And I am blogging as well at JenniferMaker.com, which is a little craft blog I started a couple of years ago to make ends meet. You can see and hear me in my craft show at https://www.youtube.com/c/jennifermaker . Many PassPorter readers and fans are on Facebook, in groups they formed like the PassPorter Trip Reports and PassPorter Crafting Challenge (if you join, just let them know you read about it in the newsletter). And some of our most devoted community members started a forum of their own at Pixie Dust Lane and all are invited over.
So we encourage you to stay in touch with us and your fellow community members wherever works best for you!

Sunday Night Disney Trivia Chat: Feb. 5, 2012 9:00 PM ET
Sunday Night Disney Trivia Chat: Feb. 5, 2012 9:00 PM ET
Please join us for a fun hour.
This week's theme is long lost parades and shows.
We start with our Disney Chat Family weekly catch-up. Then we ask some trivia questions to test your knowledge and enjoy some informal sharing on the topic.
You won't find arguments over scores and answer details here, just friendly competition and a big welcome for all!
We would love to hear your trivia on this topic. PLEASE come with your own questions, but remember to stay on topic and to be polite! Be there at 9:00 sharp to catch up on the dish.
We have new members who would like to join in and do some guessing! Remember, gifted trivia experts, please count to 50 before you answer so others can have time to think and answer.

Yeah, I tried to get them to reschedule, but they wouldn't even THINK about it. Stupid football schedulers!
thanks for hosting sorry football was distracting me too..
and I wish I would of seen them in epcot .. thanks for sharing the pic..
You are welcome, Bee. It was so great to "see" you again. We have a fun group, don't we? I love them all!
And don't worry about being distracted. If we were on group Skype Camera, I'll bet we would see a HUGE amount of multi-tasking betwen the people on the West Coast making dinner during chat, the people watching TV, etc.
We had one couple Lorie and Glenn (MinnieLor and ClayTargetShooter) who used to have their own computer and yell to each other from their rooms during chat, then write what they said or what the other was doing. They'd be making snacks, dinner, whatever. It was funny. We lost them both in one of those huge tornados, and I have to say our little group has never been the same. I still feel so sad when I see their names on one of the old threads.
I think Sunday night chat is becoming a virtual family of sorts, and we LOVE having YOU!
I remember Lori and Glenn and even though we never met in person I miss them too..
I love the chats I just need to try to stay awake on sunday nights for them. I'm usually sleeping by 9 lol

I just noticed your ribbon with Lorie and GLenn's name. I didn't consciously register that, but I found myself thinking about them and missing them when I made that last post. I was wondering where that came from!
I really do feel a strange sadness whenever I think of what happened to them, and what a loss we had her at PassPorter.
But, on to more magical and sparkly thoughts, I guess. I think that is what they would have wanted, right?
