Arrow The Longest Thread

This is not, I repeat not, a spam thread. This thread is to be an ongoing discussion. The subject will change often. This is an experiment to see if this can function right like the longest thread at my other forums. If it can't, it will be moved to the games forum.

Here are the ground rules:
--A post must be at least a sentence.
--Any post deemed spam will be deleted

Re: The Longest Thread

He didn't move it, he started a new one. I like it, except soem people will be so desparate to get posts that they will just make useless sentences. Oh well, I think that it will work. But, maybe we should just not include any posts in the Anything Goes Forums. Then all posts are from coasters an dabout this site.

Re: The Longest Thread

No, I dissagree. Many of the posts in this forum are not spam, so why make it not count? It doesn't make sense really, because many of the older members only post there.

I think we could use this thread as a news discussion thread. Like copy-pasting a news article here, and discussing. You know what I'm saying?

Re: The Longest Thread

^^^The Anything Goes forums are for pleasure and entertainment, to take a break away from building. We might just have a person come and post all their posts in Anything Goes and they would be an ssc elite? No, not a true elite. We will honor those who post in the true topics of SSCs. Why do you object it? Do you only care about your post count? Is that the only reason why you joined? I guess then that you didn't like the game's posts being erased? Not to be harsh towards you, but you are really sounding liek you only care about your post count to me. If many of the older members only post there, then thye have no problem because they will have been here long enough to already be an elite member. I think that this would eliminate all the spam,instead of just gettign rid of some of the spam.

Re: The Longest Thread

I stand beetween,(that's who i am) because of the fact that there are so many worthful posts in this thread, yet most other threads in the "anything goes" topic are for pleasure and fun. It seems some people just don't see what the difference is beetween worthlees posts and quality post.
In a lot of the construction threads like five people say,"fix that bump", and then talk about supporting it and shaping it and tips. That is a quality post...
And then there are those who say,"i'd fix that bumb but other than that it's perfect." That, however, is a worthless post.

well I don't really care about post count anymore, since I will be elite in 3 months anyways.

You need 3 sentences. First and only warning. --King

My post count dropped from 1700 to 850. I don't really care actually. Most people know that I can build very well... so I don't really need the Elite sign in my posts.

Re: The Longest Thread

^^Ha, you got caught!

Anyway, I guess that maybe we shouldn't take away the posts in the Anythign Goes forums. After consulting it with myself(Don't worry, I'm sane, just talkign to myself when I say that) I thought that with the posts from the Anythign Goes Forums will just take people a really long time to get 50 posts. It would probably take almost a year to probably get 500, so it would be impossible to get to be an elite.

Re: The Longest Thread

I lost count of how many times I've gone to SFMM. Just this week I went three times. I guess you could say I'm a coaster enthusiast, although I don't care what park I'm at or the reputation of it. I go for the coasters and thats it.

I never get enough of De Efteling. I love the summernights they've planned on 7 Saturdays every summer. The park is opened from 10AM till 12PM. It's wonderful to ride coasters at night.

Re: The Longest Thread

I've ridden 97 coasters...BEAT THAT!

lol just kidding. But Kings Island is just...blah for me. Nothing too exiting except for the beast. I loved Gadv though, that was my favorite park of the trip.

I'll post my other TR's when i get them from my dad's laptop.

And things in the Anything Goes forum should count (except for the games forum) because people are talking about the amusement industry, and can really talk about anything and not say "ooh nice signature 9/10" or whatever. Its constructive.

The first time I rode it it was like a 1 1/2 hour wait, but that was the day after it opened. Since then I've never seen it longer then 20 minutes tops, but I usually go on weekdays and I don't know how it is on weekends.

Re: The Longest Thread

^^Ya, I agree now, like I said before. It would take too long for people to get that many posts.

As for the whole bored with my own PKI, well, I only go there a couple of times a year because it would be way too boring to just go every week and doing the same thing over and over! I like to build coasters rather than riding them. Go ahead and call me weird, but I'm more interested at the structure of the ride and comparing them with my own creations. That's just how I am.

^Ya, I don't like heights that much, but I haven't ridden it before. There are some that I'll ride, but that's too high up. Once again, when it comes to liking coasters, I'm weird.

Re: The Longest Thread

OK then SK86, will make mental note not to take you on ANY ride at SFMM. That is, if you are interested in the ride structure and mentinence, which in that case you would throw up. Jk though, I'm sure if you ever come to SoCal you will face your fears on Goliath, Xcelerator, X, Y, and Z.

Yes, PKI is getting dull for me too.

KK is better for people with fear of heights than tall rides with lift hills. SheiKra could give people from problems since you are high up for so long, then stare at the ground for 6 seconds. Hell of a view of Tampa though.
