Garet Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 TPR certainly has the most lively discussions. I've tried the whole rollercoasters sub-reddit and it's just dull. I googled Mitch Hawker poll to see if there was a reason it had disappeared and it gave me a post there blaming Robb&TPR for it so I can say that sub-reddit at least entertained me for a minute.

Yes, it was so sad how we used to promote the poll and get people to vote in it.

I'm sure you'd all be blamed on influencing the polls every year if it was still running and Baron 1898 didn't win every time.
canadianparkfan Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 Those people who act like that just want to be accepted by you Robb, that's the crazy thing. I'm curious if you've ever had someone that you've blocked/banned reach out to you man-man and you've been able to resolve it, and everything is cool from then on out? My question is, have you ever had people like the guy in the video come to trips/events?

boldikus Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 ^ Maybe Robb or Elissa will correct me but pretty sure thats why they stopped doing public tours.
Intaman Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 Wow, he really showed everybody. I also like how the shirt survived his ill attempt at proving to Robb and TPR that he doesn't need them. And, wait, he randomly found the shirt underneath a pile of garbage while cleaning his room? He was allegedly banned two years ago; how long was that garbage and the shirt underneath sitting in that room?

He confirmed that the garbage pile was in his room for the entire 2 year period.
robbalvey Posted September 22, 2016 Author Posted September 22, 2016 I'm curious if you've ever had someone that you've blocked/banned reach out to you man-man and you've been able to resolve it, and everything is cool from then on out? Yes, actually. All the time. In fact, in 100% of the cases where we have banned someone from our forums or socials and they have written us a nice "Hey look, sorry about all that stupid crap I said, let's wipe the slate clean and start over" email. I have always unbanned them. Always. But the reality is that most of the time we get the "F**k you guys are a bunch of c*nts I hope you die and rot in hell" emails and when I do get those, then I know my gut feeling on banning them was probably correct in the first place. All I'm asking for is that people take responsibility for the things they say. And most people don't want to admit that they were at fault or in the wrong, so they just come after us like this shirt burning psycho. And that's fine. The more of those people who weed themselves out of our community, the better!
robbalvey Posted September 22, 2016 Author Posted September 22, 2016 My question is, have you ever had people like the guy in the video come to trips/events? Oh, we most certainly have! And they are honestly disruptive for everyone. So thankfully, we try to weed out as many of them as possible on the forum or socials level so they don't even get to the point where they attend events.
Philrad71 Posted September 22, 2016 Posted September 22, 2016 Most of the people that I have actually talked to or ridden coasters with at TPR events have been pretty cool for the most part. Although there have been a couple that I have ridden coasters with during ERT where I got off and tried to distance myself from them immediately. I would tell Michael (he wasn't riding), "Man, I just rode with one of most annoying, weird little coaster f%cks in the world - lets get the hell out of here before he starts stalking us!"
Jcoaster Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 This video is incredible. The fact that this dude took the time out of his day to: A). Look for this shirt B). Almost Light Himself on fire C.) Film it Says all you need to know. This guy is a loser. Theme parks are fun and this site makes it more fun. People really need to take a step back now and then and realize ITS NOT THAT SERIOUS. Like Robb was going to shut down this site or whimper in the corner cause he lit his shirt on fire. Good, one less idiot on here to annoy all the good site members. Keep doing you Robb, jealously and contempt really makes people look dumber than they already usually are.
robbalvey Posted September 23, 2016 Author Posted September 23, 2016 ^ Maybe Robb or Elissa will correct me but pretty sure thats why they stopped doing public tours. That's most certainly one of the reasons, yes!
Ape Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 This is just someone seeking attention. If I didn't like something or someone enough to want to burn my shirt/jersey I would just throw it in the trash with no video and move on in my life. I follow pretty closely here and on other social media and while it seems it is super easy to get banned i'm personally noticing if you actually can contribute and not be a complete dumbass you probably won't get banned for little thing. I have had at least two disagreements with Robb on here in the last couple of years and the most recent I fully thought I was going to get banned as he seems ban happy at times, but that was not the case.
PKI Jizzman Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 Anyone else notice he said he found the shirt "under a pile of garbage in this room"?
ytterbiumanalyst Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 ^ Oh yes. We've had some fun with that fact.
josephcissell Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 Man, reading through this thread was so entertaining. Thanks for all the laughs crazy shirt-burning dude on the internet!

prozach626 Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 There's nothing like locating something you don't need anymore under a pile of garbage in your room and then burning it in your weed infested sh*tty back yard. On another note, it's good to know that TPR tee shirts are of such good quality that they still hold up reasonably well after being doused in gasoline and ignited.
boldikus Posted September 23, 2016 Posted September 23, 2016 ^ LOL Robb should make an advertisement for TPR shirts using clips from that video! "Look at how freaking durable these things are!!"

"Look at how freaking durable these things are!!" This was honestly my first reaction when I watched the video! "Wow, the shirt doesn't even look barely touched after being lit of fire!"
gerstlaueringvar Posted September 24, 2016 Posted September 24, 2016 Yeah maybe if SFMM had some TPR shirts, Colossus construction site wouldn't have caught on fire.

Maybe this guy should spend more time on lawn maintenance, and less time in front of his computer screen.
