RCPro

[ncf]

I can see that there are some RCPro members here on TPR... Does anyone know what is wrong with it? It's been down for 2 weeks now

[coaster_type_of_person]

Nope I dont know whats up with it

 

 

i thought that it was just me but i guess it's everyone else too.

It met a 20 year old sorority chick and ran off to Ibiza.

I just spoke with Dan. They had a few server problems. No time as to when though yet.

Yea.. I miss the site already!

I thought someone hacked it again. (about every 4 months someone gets that idea). At least they do not have to go through every thing like they do when it is hacked. Hopefully it is up soon though.

[coaster_type_of_person]

Yeah i cant wait till its up again! 8)

I havn't bothered to ask Steve about it because I would imagine with him being away, it would be Brandon or Dan getting the site back up. By the way ncf, has it really been 2 weeks? I don't remember it being that long, but it does feel like forever.

[euphoric]

Just 2 weeks? It has to have been longer then that.

[ncf]

Yeah, it was on Thursday, 2 weeks ago

I love their coaster videos. They havent updated them in a while though.

I don't mean any offense to RCPro when I say this, but what was it that everyone liked about that site?

 

I'm seriously just wondering because everytime I went there it did seem like a lot of bickering back and forth and not a huge amount of content.

 

Again, I'm not ripping on it, I just really would like to know what people found so great about it for my own curiosity since I've heard other people talk about it, but I could never quite figure it out.

^its probably the fact that it's pretty active (much like this site) but i agree, there is alot of bickering.

 

another problem i find with the site is that it loads horrendously slowly. all sites on my computer are instant, that site takes a few MINUTES to load.

 

 

but really i would have loved for them to go down a few minutes later than they did, (a couple mins before the day of Tatsu's announcement) an admin apparently knew somthing and was going to reveal it around midnight... couldnt have gone down at a worse time (for me)

[ncf]

They have the best coaster videos ever made

[coasters 4 me]

There coaster videos are the bomb!! But TPR are better because you always have new videos. They hardly update them that much. But they are really good. And the music with them is really good too!

RCPro has some pretty kickass pictures that make sweet desktops if you have an 800x600 monitor.

 

Thats basically when I go to RCPro, other than that, never go there.

[MSLSM]

It is a fun site, but it is not the most active. They have good pics and videos. It's only problem is that if you are not from the west, you will probably get most posts from the "games, debates, and polls" and "non coaster related". It also seems like more of a serious site, and one of the main reasons I like it is the fact that it was the first site I joined.

[ncf]

They also have the cleanest and most "comfortable" forums ever. I just became a staff member there and I just had uploaded my Thorpe Park pics the day the site went down

[zburns999]

The main reason I like RCPro is because of its "community" feel. I know most of the active members (not personally), and I am up there on the top posters list, which makes things more fun. I don't know, I like TPR and RCPro about the same, but for totally different reasons. Oh, and for what Robb said about bickering, thats mostly just newbs that have nothing better to do than critisize other peoles stuff. Everyone else on the site is extrememly friendly, and the mods do a great job of keeping things under controll.

[CoasterFreak24]

^Yes i'm agreeing ZBurns..

Rollercoaster Pro is the site I got into rollercoaster more and plus you can talk about anything its like a mini-town.. plus the loading slow part.. they are fixing that.. !

 

But, RCPro.. the thing about it is that.. its just like a city, town, whatever... Everyone mostly know everyone..

Isn't this the second time RCPro shut down?

[ncf]

Third actually...

[zburns999]

I remeber I was on vacation during the first few days it went down over the summer. I was so excited to get back and see what I missed and I was shocked to realize the site was down. I was so mad Anyway, thats when I joined here .

[ncf]

RCPro is up again The forums are not working yet...

[coasterdude5]

^Good, I still have not gotten to post even though I've been registered for months now!
