Long thread on the other place, far too much to summarise to be honest but essentially the concern was that the new charts dilute our ownership %.

A few people got calls with senior reps and were told various things...one of which was they could basically inflate points indefinitely.

Many views back and forth but the recent updates suggest that they will revise the charts “based on feedback, not because they have done anything wrong”. Which is when Pete seems to have got interested...

I have said it before and I will keep saying it. The individual members of Staff we speak to are great. However I wouldn't trust DVC Management as far as I could throw them.
Curious -- since you watched whole video - is this a situation where the point charts are not being adjusted as in "more points for this time but less points for this time" but simply "more points for this."

I never actually found out as I gave up 4 mins from the end!
The Doc was the sensible level headed Guy but Pete sad to say drives nails in to me as he keeps flogging a dead horse to death! A successful Guy with a big following but I cannot watch him.

It’s all to do with breakage as far as I can tell and moving Points from the inventory to the breakage pool of Points to sell for cash. I never actually got to find out if they are saying that where Points have gone up in one area then they have correspondingly gone down in another as per the Rules.

You lasted longer than I did. I was hoping for a quick summary from them on the situation but they wouldn't give me the cliffs notes.

You could look at the thread on the other place - there are some brief posts towards the end. I’m not keen on the show trying to claim credit for this...

Strange I missed this, must be due to lockdown. The previous one I was all over, that was very bad though, and Zavandor who is a member on here even set up a website to put pressure on- what a star. I bet he has been watching this new one as well.

I do chuckle about these posts and the ‘other place’

It reminds me of Harry Potter and he who cannot be named.

Yeah, this time it didn’t quite ramp up so quickly. Lots of waiting for calls back and less consensus on the wrongdoing...

Think there is still something like 30 or 40 pages though...

And yes, I’m pretty sure Zavandor is involved again.

Am I the only person who doesn’t know where ‘the other place’ is? 😂 I feel like I’m missing out 👀

It's the Disboards, it's where this site & the original members originated from.
