MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted January 17, 2012 Posted January 17, 2012 Bolded for emphasis. This doesn't surprise me. I have seen stupid GP comments on every single one of COASTERFORCE's videos. I feel bad for the guy who has to respond to all of their pointless questions/statements. Serves them right for shooting illegal POVs everywhere they go. I think COASTERFORCE's videos are taken with permission. Notice they don't put their cameras down when the On-Ride photo comes up and they take the POV videos in the stations, unlike the other illegal videos. Source
megamatt Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 The stupid part is in bold My vote goes to anything and everything Arrow. They just seem to be too much of maintenance nightmares as time goes on, and aren't necessarily as popular as they used to be. Now, coasters like Magnum, Gemini, and X2 will probably stay for a while, but with coasters like BBW, GASM, and Eagle's Fortress being removed, and Kennywood re-doing phantom's first drop, nothing Arrow is safe, in my opinion.
larrygator Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 ^And why is that a stupid comment. A lot of Arrow rides have been removed in recent years, whether it be the end of their lifecycle, high maintenance costs or difficulty in finding parts. Or is your post the "stupid" one because of your reading comprehension problems in thinking the poster is saying that Arrow rides are unsafe?
VinTheAttendant Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 ^^I had to read it twice myself, but look at the context a little closer. Larry pretty much summed it up, FeelTheFORCE meant no Arrow is safe from the demolition trend.
MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 ^^^No Arrow is safe from demolition, not being unsafe in general.
CoasterBeagle Posted January 23, 2012 Posted January 23, 2012 ^^Water coasters are credits for some people, but don't count for others. Whether or not you count it is up to you. It's kind of like how I refuse to ride kiddie coasters, like the ones where the ride op has to stop it themselves and you have to have a little kid to ride. They are credits but I don't really count them because I'm not a kid height anymore.
larrygator Posted February 22, 2012 Posted February 22, 2012 Really? How do you get that much snow there when here in Ohio, further north, we've at most gotten a quarter inch.
kumba830 Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 Comment on how much it cost to run V2 at SFGAm. ^ Nope, don't know that. In fact, not sure if Six Flags themselves even have an accurate number on that. I'd say a dollar a launch is reasonable.
XYZ Posted March 22, 2012 Posted March 22, 2012 This is inexcusable even by GP standards. I would assume that there's a general consensus for what a 'wooden roller coaster' is: Chain lift hill, PTC cars, a fairly spread-out layout, and no inversions. Flight of Fear has none of these elements. I would love to have heard the thought process that led them to conclude that a coaster that launches you from a standstill into 4 inversions and an incredibly twisted layout (all in a building not much bigger than a McDonald's PlayPlace) is made of wood.
UrbanLegend Posted March 23, 2012 Posted March 23, 2012 ^I was going for artistic license with that exaggeration, but I guess it's irrelevant at this point.
SoCalCoasters Posted March 31, 2012 Posted March 31, 2012 So if i get a gold flash pass, it dosent come with a wristband, so i can give it to my friend if he wants to do a ride quick, right? ^Yes.
larrygator Posted April 1, 2012 Posted April 1, 2012 (edited) ^Seriously, you think that is dumb and you follow it up with this. So if i get a gold flash pass, it dosent come with a wristband, so i can give it to my friend if he wants to do a ride quick, right? ^Yes. So can someone explain how bad the average Summer Saturday is? Pardon? Flash Passes are available for purchase so that they can be used by the specified amount of individuals that you pay for, not buy it for one, use it for many... Why you are suggesting is that he use it illegally? From SFMM FP Page: Prices for The Flash Pass vary, depending on level of service, number of riders and day of the week. Regular The Flash Passes are priced from $45.00 for the first person. Why do you think a group of 6 people can't buy a Flash Pass for 4 and rotate it amongst themsleves based on the ride that group prefers while the other two people in the group might serve as bag holders or just sit out a ride?

Hercules Posted April 1, 2012 Author Posted April 1, 2012 I certainly don't think the authorities will be called in because a couple of kids passed off a Flash Pass to their buddies.....
MayTheGForceBeWithYou Posted April 3, 2012 Posted April 3, 2012 Where do I even start with this? (from the Age Restrictins thread) i don't think there should be a age limit maybe on hunted house the one at universal hollywood i was so scared i ran out of there so fast i think i would of beat anyone in a race i was 11 and riding some every rollercoaster i could. i dont think rollercoaster should but made hunted houses
dylanreich Posted April 4, 2012 Posted April 4, 2012 ^Let me translate it for you: "askjdhgakoigja;ekjglekl;arl;gjae;klgjel;kagjal;g."
imagineerz Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 That reminds me of a ride operator on Medusa (SFDK) who said it had sand-filled track when I said it had sand-filled supports. Seriously, how can you put sand in track? Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't several B&M's have sand filled tracks?
154bmag Posted April 14, 2012 Posted April 14, 2012 ^I don't know how many, I do know that Medusa at SFDK does have sand in the track, but I think most B&M's don't.
molemaster43 Posted April 15, 2012 Posted April 15, 2012 I was really interested in the KI Ghost Hunters. Too bad they didn't do segments on rides like Son of Beast or the Beast, which I would've thought would be really cool. OH C'MON I JUST FOUND THIS!!!! I LIKED IT! (Wait, I lied)

AllenA07 Posted April 20, 2012 Posted April 20, 2012 I'm happy not to be on this thread! But to each their own.
