Are writers letting the forum write their articles?

Who cares if it is true and journalists are using this board? does that give anyone the right to make false posts about destinations and give wrong information!?!!! come on! if people are going to become "moles" and give false information, I guess i shouldn't even frequent the board anymore as i come here often to get advice (which i now know may be unreliable)
Do you have nothing better to complain about or are you just that much of a cynical negative person?

Yes, anti-EDU ... blame all my relatives who either teach or work at ivy leaguers. I have arrogance radar fully functioning. Envy? Hmmmm ... no. What really makes me laugh is this: there is an assumption extant in this thread that what we post has this amazing intrinsic value, something proprietary even. Intellectual property. And now folks complain that we might post bad informatiuon, as though people's lives hang in the balance. Gee, I though this was an informal site for exchanging views and experiences, plus some information. Everything of course to be confirmed. Informal all the way. re And now, my goodness, we're into copyright. Obviously I've picked up the high-priced spread. My bias about WDW needs protection from the journalists. Okay, I like it that someone might expropriate my views about the Rat in Orlando. Right on.

Hey, a lot of us arrogant ivies dislike the Orlando Rodent as much as anyone -- me, with a quiet fury! If we're so arrogant, what are we doing settling for these salaries?
Suspect what bothers Virtual MOS et al is thinking we are here helping each other as invidual travelers with personal advice and then finding out that that "innocent" question is really just the "adult" equivalent of a school kid with a homework assignment he wants someone else to do. To the journalists lurking here: either tell us up front you're working on an article, and I think you'll get plenty of responses - or else go do your own research.

Reeled me in, hook, line, rod, sinker and copy of angling times!
I wish I was a journalist!! As for my hundreds of postings, I did a quick search and can count ten on the USA forum in about 3 years. Omigod.
The questions were ergarding a trip I start a week today, for 3 months. That's it.
