Sorry....I've been a little on edge lately since hearing this news of the website and it's possible future.....even my mom can tell....and I do wonder if petitions would help....UD/dvdizzy has helped a lot of people more times than Google has made donations to charities....it's helped autistic people like myself find a place.....I'm serious....my autism of my Asperger Syndrome has me raging because of what may come because of google......It's pissing me off so much and I'm sure I'm not the only one.....Luke Don't Give Up without a fight we will win this...don't give up..never give up...I would donate money monthly to keep this site going if that's what it takes to keep this site intact and it doesn't have to be a set amount...donate $1 or 50 cents or $25 or whatever....


speaking of never giving up Eagle Eyes Cherry featuring Camp Lazlo

and yes I didn't like Camp Lazlo but the video really called to me..

A thought came to mind in case this site and board go under...

How about amalgamating with the folks over at Miceage/Micechat? I know Al Lutz and the other contributors on Miceage mostly cover the parks, but over on the Micechat board we do have an entertainment section. However, one thing that is lacking is a Home Entertainment/Video section - something that it could use.

I'm one of the original members there, having signed-up just a week or so after Micechat was established in January '05, when Monorail Man got the message board up and running. A Home Video/Entertainment section is something I identified that we are lacking. (I'm on the Micechat board with the same identity as here, "Barbossa")

Even Werner Wiess who runs Yesterland joined forces with Miceage and Micechat.

It's just a thought I had today as a possible way to keep DVDizzy/UD alive for the future.

If it results to that I am in favor of it....unless things are straightened out by google...send Luke this post via email see what he thinks about it....if that could be an option

If Luke doesn't see this, someone can take the liberty to get it to him. (a longtime, respected member perhaps?)

*Luke,
I have contact for Google chairs you may want to speak with. Afterall they do know your presence. I'd like to line something up.


I'd hate to see UD go too, it's a nice site that just needs sprucing up.

I would really hate to see this site go. This is probably one of the few forums I actually like posting on.

I mean the fact that only members before certain dateline can do pm. Every member should be able to do pm.

Also you should be able to do pm since I registered back in 06 and I can do it as well as Goliath can do it and he registered in 08.....

If a constantly updated site should ever fade, I hope that the excellent reference pages of Disney video titles would be archived and viewable on a continuing basis, as there is nothing else nearly as comprehensive available.

I was told that memebers had been abusing the pms so they turned off that feature for anyone who registered after a certain date. I just double checked and this is still the case on my end. I can read pms but when I go to send them I get this.

"Sorry, but the administrator has prevented you from sending private messages."

I was told I could email a request to have it granted to me, I just never bothered. I have like, 5 PMs that Ive never been able to respond to.

That may be an individual basis thing. I just registered like last year or maybe 09 and I've always been able to do PM.

Attention Luke: do a search for "SEO analyzers," there are a few free tools out there that make for a good starting point to determine the issues you may need to address, such as http headers and meta tags; regardless, I believe a complete overhaul of your site would be in your best interest.

That is a good idea. Unfortunately this message board would have to close if that happened and im not sure how that would help Luke's financial situation.

This is all very sad news.....
