Forums Closed
|
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 The software our forums run on is just too out-of-date and it poses a significant security risk.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!
Best wishes for a wonderful and magical new year!

Have you ever had one of those dreams......
.....where you wake up mad at someone  ? I had a bad dream about DH last night, and I was so mad when I woke up. Good thing he was working last night, so I was able to get over it by the time he got home  ! |

Re: Have you ever had one of those dreams......
I always have dreams like that! I'll even wake up crying many times.. They say that is a sign of an overactive imagination if you 'feel' the dreams.. in my case that is oh so true  |

Re: Have you ever had one of those dreams......
I had one awhile back about DH and actually woke up (and woke him up) smacking him on the back! I told him I'd had a dream that there was a spider on him and I was smashing it, but  |

Re: Have you ever had one of those dreams......
I've done that. And sometimes it takes me a while to get over it. And it's really not fair for the person who I'm mad at.

Re: Have you ever had one of those dreams......
I have crazy strange dreams but I don't remember ever having one where I was mad at DH or someone else. But I have periodically woken him up by hitting, kicking, shaking him or yelling at him but then don't remember why in the morning

Yes!  I have them and wake up so angry and can't for the life of me remember what I was all worked up about. |

Re: Have you ever had one of those dreams......
Yeah, I have awaken mad once or twice. I have dreams that are so real though, that I sometimes don't know whether or not it really happened. It's creepy.

Re: Have you ever had one of those dreams......
Oh My, the dreams I dream!! I have woken up furiously angry many times and it takes half the day for it to dissipate! ( usually hubby was doing somethng horrible in the dream and I was screaming at him!) Once though, it was dMIL and once my sister. The sister one was weird because we are best friends and haven't been MAD at each other since, hmm, maybe when she was 7 and I was 15.
Overactive imagination?? Who me???? All of my dreams seem real and unless it's quickly verifiable-like feeling in my mouth to see if all my teeth fell out or not, it takes a while to be sure what it reality and what is fiction! Oh, if only I could write, I'd have a hundred very weird books out there on the shelves!

Re: Have you ever had one of those dreams......
I haven't had one of those however, my friend did and she called me the next morning yelling at me about what birthday present I got her daughter because it was too expensive. I did try telling her that I had no clue what she was talking about. Her daughters birthday was 2 months later and she knew I didn't have the present yet.
