Time To Ask

A Off-Topic forum to discuss things that aren't related to the Amusement Park Industry.
Postby Coaster Justin on January 24th, 2008, 5:25 pm
I have a question for everyone.

Almost since I signed up at sfgamworld.com almost any post I make gets just negative views. Even Opinion ones you guys critisize. So Why do almost all of you put-down my forum posts?


Have I done anything that would make any of you want to do this? If so, I want to know what I did and I will Apologize.

Just Remember that I don't do this to your guys posts and/or forums.

That is the point of a forum, to discuss your opinion.

It seems like a vast majority feel that your opinion is ill-informed or wrong.

When you start posting things that you think the park should do, and have no basis in reality, that is going to lead people to poke fun at you because you have yet to learn that while all those things may seem like good ideas to you, there is a vast difference between a good idea and what can actually happen.

What about all the other forums? I think someone called me a Tool in one of the posts. What does that expression mean anyway?

We are all a bunch of jerks. Its kind of as simple as that. After a while posting on forums and researching coasters you'll become better informed about them and then you can be mean to the newbies on here.

Chances are I will never do that. Students at my School life have messed with me for being a coaster fan like asking me if I would **** A Coaster. I didn't like it when they said that, so why would I do it to a New Member starting Out?


Do as to others as you would want done to You.

That is completely true. They are much worse than it is here, like much much worse. You don't know what you are talking about, you will get smashed. Also, if you don't agree with the majority, the same thing will happen, perfect example is the current debate of the state of Spaceship Earth and the descent is not up to par with most people with just the video screens. It is so funny to read.

I've learned to skim, as about 90% of the content on Disney boards in useless blabber, but I put up with it because the other 10% is very interesting. We have more like a 70% blabber to 30% interesting here...maybe even more.

Dan, I read Disney forums a ton as well, (Going in March...) and I laugh every time I read the SSE threads....

I think at least here we allow a meaningful discussion, which is a lot more than what happens there (*cough* WDWMagic *cough*)...

/\Exactly my point, I am registered at that site and have yet to post because of the lack of acceptance to other views. I have ridden the new SSE and I enjoyed it, though the video screens are cool, but the surroundings going down as of now isn't very good.

I'll be there in March as well.

But at least thank yourself, Coasterboy, for not posting at a WDW forum, they will tear you apart there. :wink:

Another thing is that most people don't care about another person's tallest, fastest, longest, etc coaster that they have been on. Those threads are rather pointless.

Since we're talking about Disney World, has anyone else noticed that MGM is now called Disney's Hollywood Studios?

People really dont like the "What If" topics either

http://www.sfgamworld.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=8475


What if I bought SF in 1998? What If you bought SF in 1998? What if Taco Bell started serving all the Food at SF parks in 1998? What If Raging Bull was built in 1998? What if? see my point?

The DHS changover officially occured on January 7th, they'd put off changing the name for about ten years from what I've heard. It all has to do with the contract with MGM which has long since been gone.

I'm not trying to be mean or anything, but what does Disney have to do with this topic?

Tip Top Club made an offhand comment about how this board doesn't compare to the crap they would throw at you on a disney forum and it digressed.
