Good People, I Have Arrived!

I'm Jeff but you guys can call me jw or by first name. Some of you may recognize my username from various forums including a certain place that I did call sanctuary. But things got heated and people couldn't agree to disagree in a polite and civil matter and matters like that. As hard as I tried to move forward, the vibe just wasn't the same and while some people did read my post of concern and followed through, others clearly did not. So I searched for a new place and lo and behold, I stumbled upon this site and also recognized a few members from that other site who also migrated here, as well. The old site, while I still post, I don't go as often, sticking to mostly the NFL Discussion Thread of that site. I can only hope this new place will live up to its name and that people agree to disagree in the most proper, civilized way.

Anyway, for those who don't know me and my loves of WDW. Well, for starters, I'm 22 but I've been to WDW 5 times in my life, including last March and three times in the past five years. My favorite rides are Peter Pan's Flight and Soarin'. I love the Full Montagu sandwich at Earl of Sandwich, Dole Whips, Premium bars, you name it. I do enjoy doing character meet and greets even I'm the only one without children or the only Asian-American in line so to speak. Other than that, I, too, am also from NJ like a few of the other members around here. And well, I'm really looking forward offering my experiences, likes/dislikes and my love for WDW to this site.

What's amazing to me is that we have new members coming this week escaping from drama at two different other website.

Seriously? Dang, I'm glad I found THIS place before I stumbled onto those other sites. As Robyn mentioned in another thread, this is the BEST FORUM EVER.

Ditto, CCP!! On one hand, I'm curious (as only an Alice can be) about these other places, but I feel very fortunate to have joined up here first and missed all of the un-fun elsewhere on the inter-webs! So glad that you all landed here and I look forward to many civil & friendly exchanges!

Let's put it this way: there are many on those other sites who would fit right in on Maelstrom.
