It can’t be mentioned here. They are censoring it. Google and you’ll find it.What is the Wiki page everyone is talking about?

Pretty sure I stopped posting around that same time for similar reasonsExactly. I got slapped for repeatedly reporting a new poster who was trolling. For some reason I will never understand, the mods stood behind that person even though every one of their posts did nothing but stir the pot. And as mentioned earlier, daring to disagree with the mods just got you in more trouble. It was downhill from there and I soon went from visiting daily to not being here for a few years.
I found out about this whole debacle in the most roundabout way.i imagine we'll get something after the California event. They cant NOT do another live show without acknowledging the elephant in the room.
Also, funny thing about all this...
there's still a HUGE amount of listeners/viewers who have no idea about all this.
Not everyone is on disboards, checks youtube comments, etc.
And the Dis isn't huge enough to have it be a trending topic on facebook/twitter, so it hasn't exactly blown up there.
So if you're not as plugged in, this is just not on your radar.
I haven't been on disboards in a while, but i do still listen to the main show and Universal Edition weekly (more so audio than the video version).
If i hadn't opened youtube to see Ryno was doing a livestream when i did the other night, i would still be in the dark about all this.
Oh how I remember that.Exactly. I got slapped for repeatedly reporting a new poster who was trolling.

I think I know who the poster is you’re talking about. I also seem to remember that person showing up on the other site awhile back and getting runoft. Never understood why they were allowed to continue their pontificating on this site without being banned. It was about that time I stopped visiting.Exactly.

Yeah when I started that chat I had no idea what it would turn into. Good times.I found out about this whole debacle in the most roundabout way.
I am in the “Aussie Disney Dorks” Facebook group and someone mentioned DUT and an issue they were having.
I directed them to reach out to Kevin (he’s the client services manager right?) to get more clarity and I went searching on here to ensure I had his email correct (I jumped into one of the threads on this section of the boards to ensure I had it correct) and came across something which lead me to google the orange county clerks office which lead me, you know where, and then I spent the better part of 2 days catching up.
My sister is a DIS fan too so I called her with the revelations and apparently she is a frequent visitor to the other place (which I didn’t even know about) for other online personalities, and she’d started skimming the threads.
To say I was shocked was an understatement.
Oh how I remember that.
It *did* however spur on an 856 page private group chat which I know many of us appreciated and engaged in quite a lot and we were free to talk as much rubbish as we liked.
Of course you areI am in the “Aussie Disney Dorks” Facebook group
1-Two former on air personalities came forward with details of...toxic relationships with Pete, to say the least (said users go into more detail on another forum).Can someone post. 6 sentence bulletpoint of what all this stuff is about?!
Regarding #3, Pete has been sued by Amex for that debt, which is a matter of public record. So it isn't just that he has the debt but that he apparently hasn't been paying it.1-Two former on air personalities came forward with details of...toxic relationships with Pete, to say the least (said users go into more detail on another forum).
2-More former on air personalities gave more insight to the toxic work environment (via their own social media).
3-Pete has apparently ran a nearly 1 million dollar debt using company credit card(s) on his expensive lifestyle
4-Current employees have acknowledged how shocking the news is and support those effected, but are likely waiting to make any more formal statements after the previously scheduled Dis meetup in California.
5-Speculation is leading to the conscious uncoupling of Pete from any relationship to Dreams Unlimited Travel/The Dis podcasts (supposedly Corey/Craig were wanting to buy The Dis at some point).
Probably because it was repetitiveThe WTH is going on? thread just got closed.
I think they are just trying to keep it to one thread instead of multiple ones.The WTH is going on? thread just got closed.
The webmaster moderating here has repeatedly asked for the conversation to stay in this thread. Which doesn’t seem unreasonable to me.The WTH is going on? thread just got closed.
That makes senseProbably because it was repetitive
Might make sense to merge the closed thread into this one. That would allow people to reply to posts there.That makes sense
