^Honda Civics are reliable, too, but don't blame me if I take something a little more sporty over it. Reliability is quite overrated, and it seems to be the crutch of B&M fan people everywhere. There are plenty of B&Ms that I love, but they'll never get into my top 7 or 8, simply because there's hardly ever that "wow" factor with them. Are a lot of them great? Yes. Are any of them elite (at least in this country)? Nope.

HA...im done lol...

Kiddie coasters are about as reliable as they get. So I guess those are better than Intamins, too. :roll:


dude...STFU lol! Kiddie coasters...are you kidding me lol lol! You are seriously reaching right now...seeeeeriously reaching. Here you go about to turn this into an intamin vs. B&M saga. Jordan said intimidator is reliable...now you equate that as him saying beemers are more reliable than intamin? I think I can speak for the majority of peoples' argruement by saying that they have a slight problem with someone telling someone how to vote in a meaningless poll...NOT the fact that i305 maybe or maybe not leading in a poll. Now you are trying turn this into a ______coaster company is better than ____coaster company. News flash, of all of us who have ridden both most like i305 better!

^It's called sarcasm, look it up. And from what it sounded like, the poster was trying to say X coaster is better than Y coaster because it's reliable, which to me is a pretty silly reason to think one coaster is better than another (hence my overly exaggerated example of kiddie coasters).

And as far as being a fanboy of any manufacturer, I just like great coasters, and if Intamin happens to make more of them than anyone else, so be it. I have Intamin, Morgan, Arrow, S&S, and B&M in my steel top 10. Actually, my steel top 25 has WAY more B&Ms in it than Intamins (which is more due to the fact that I've ridden 40 B&Ms against 16 Intamins, which include Jr. Gemini and Disaster Transport).

Regardless, the fact remains, people on this site are crying about a coaster enthusiast trying to get people to vote for which ride he thinks is best, which, correct me if I'm wrong, is what everyone else is doing. So where are all the torch bearers and rioters at when Carowinds tells people to vote for 232? Are they not telling people how to vote in a poll? And people elsewhere cry about the same enthusiast kicking them off his site (which is even funnier, crying about getting kicked off a website, someone call the wahhhhhhmbulance). I say grow up and grow a pair to everyone who complains about Robb or TPR. If there's someone I don't like, I don't spend any energy at all complaining or talking about them, I just remove them from my thought processes. Pretty simple really.

At least you dont have to worry about 232's candle burning out. It's pretty reliable.

doesnt sound anything remotely like x coaster is better than y coaster.

So where are all the torch bearers and rioters at when Carowinds tells people to vote for 232? Are they not telling people how to vote in a poll?

Ummm...they OWN the ride, it would be blaphasmy for them to NOT tell people to vote for it. Thats like saying "my wife is in a beauty contest but vote for the other chick"

And people elsewhere cry about the same enthusiast kicking them off his site (which is even funnier, crying about getting kicked off a website, someone call the wahhhhhhmbulance).

How about you leave that elsewhere where people are actually doing that. That has nothing to do with the issue going on, or that went on here. It seems you ARE wrapped up in all the drama that you've let it emploded your mind and when someone dissagrees with what said person does, say or think its automatically them "crying" or "waaaahing". In reality the same can be said that he's crying when he made the thread about people saying mean things about him and posting his criminal background...that can be look at by someone as crying also dude. But who am I kidding, you dont see it like that.

I say grow up and grow a pair to everyone who complains about Robb or TPR.

Oh so because someone doesn't like EVERYTHING he does they're complaining? If someone praise the things he doe's they're cool but if someone speak out on something he does they need to grow a pair??? Seriously??? lol

If there's someone I don't like, I don't spend any energy at all complaining or talking about them, I just remove them from my thought processes. Pretty simple really.

No one here has said, from my reading, they dont like him. I personally dont know him. I like the site and some of the things people post and pictures and such, I dont like everything that goes on there but oh well. Am I wrong for pointing out the things I dont like? According to you I am. But like I said earlier, im done with the topic. Its a poll for bragging rights and it will be over soon...

Everyone make sure you vote for Battlestar Galactica!!

I am in the firm belief that stupidity and ignorance are only the result of "tunneled" vision.

Peace, Love, and Thrills :mrgreen:
