i didnt say i never got caught. and i'm talkin about spelling not killing. major difference between the two. u guys blow things outta proportion.

Krazy Koaster: Batman was, beyond all doubt, a revloloutinary coaster. When it opened, their was literally no other coaster in the world like it. And, if you will recall, SFGAm made sure everyone knew it, too. The lines for Batman were the exception, not the rule. I mean, if Raging Bull never pulled five hours, I doubt Superman will.

I hear America screaming...

Arockam. Im not bothering to try to explain this to you. Just read my previous post a couple more times and i'm sure after a couple hours of translating all of my "you"'s to "u"'s, what I truly said was not that you were killing anybody....

i'm not stupid, and u were comparing something to killing which are two extremes. that is blowing it out of proportion. just because i abbreviate doesnt make u smarter or better than me. ur message meant what it said, i can read it fine. this isnt the law of a country, this is a stupid law by a webmaster who just wants to feel like he has control. its a pointless rule and shouldnt be there. i'm not gonna critisize and call u stupid like u did to me, cuz EVERYONE understands "u" and "ur". u all just have nothing better to do than come on here and critisize people for their typing.

Do you know what arockam2? I tried to give you the benefit of doubt and tried to offer some measure of friendship on these boards so that all of this inane bickering would stop but it is clear that you are nothing but a stupid little troll wasting everyone's time. I think that at this point everyone should just ignore you because it is obvious that you have nothing constructive to add to the conversation.

Two points and then I am done. The first point is the fact that somehow you are "in the know" and know something about amusement park safety devices. This is from another thread, but I will mention it here. Amusement parks are not in the habit of keeping information on how they keep their guests safe a secret. That is information they want the general public to have so that their guests will know they will have a safe day at the park. As far as you questioning RideMan and anything he says, that just shows how stupid you really are. RideMan has been in the industry for many years and has studied coasters to death. You want someone obsessed with anything amusement park related, that is your man.

Second point. Your spelling sucks and it is general reflection of your level of maturity. By using abbreviations and by using poor spelling you tell the world that you are ignorant and dont have much of an education. That might not be the case, however, what you put in written form for the world to see reflects upon you and only you, whether it be positively or negatively.

You statement that you don't follow rules that are stupid also reflects poorly on you and your general level of intelligence. Again, you might be really smart, but what you say reflects on you. The rules on this board are here to prevent flame wars and to make this a better place to discuss coasters. You don't pay the enormous bills that it takes to run this site. Because of that, your First Amendment rights do not extend to this site. You either follow the rules, or you do not post here. It is that simple. I hate to see what other rules you find stupid. Hopefully none of them involve something that is a felony. I would hate to see someone else get hurt because of your warped thinking.

So with that, I bid you farewell. I refuse to acknowledge you anymore and I ask that others here do the same. What you say does not matter to me one bit.

haha....it reflects NOTHING about me. first off i wasnt bashing rideman, get it right, i was bashing redman. can you read, i said that in a previous post. i can spell however i want, cuz its my right. it doesnt matter if this company is privately run, u still have the first amendment rights. second of all, the companys do keep how they run things a secret, and not let them float around in public. have u ever worked for a company? if u did u would know that. and if u did work for a company and didnt know that, u werent payin attention. i'm as mature as you are, i dont have to prove myself otherwise, as i said before. i'm a troll now huh, hahaha what an idiot. ya i'm a troll during fright fest, NO, moron. and i know thats not what u were sayin, just makin fun of ur word choice. how does spelling provoke flame wars? it doesnt, so enough with the spelling crap. theres no reason to outlaw spelling.

So, anyone else see this coaster test lately? ;)

How can you compare Batman to Raging Bull. Raging Bull can pull in about 600 more people an hour than Batman. You cant compare a three train coaster to a two train coaster. Just doesnt add up.

By the way there will be a few extra feet to the station of Superman than there was for Shockwave. The only queue they will have is shockwave's. So that will hold about 100 extra people.

I recall after Batman came out Shockwave still had a 3 hour line. And Superman is a "revoluntionary" coaster to the people of Chicago and the surrounding suburbs. I go to school in Michigan and lots of people are going to make trips to GA this season.

I'm not saying it is going to be a 5 hour line. I can promise you there will be lots of days where it will have a 2+ hour line. Maybe even 3.

All I know is I am going to try and get my fill of the ride for the year during ERT for CB Con!!! Then I won't have to wait in the long lines if I don't want to! :)

u do that, but all the coaster buzz convention people will be going in line at the same time. by the way, i thought u followed the rules and didnt abbreviate? "ERT" "cb con!!" some people can be hipocrits. listen kick the sky, if you dont say anything provoking or mean to me, i wont say anything provoking or mean to u. thats how it works.

Dude... how old are you? 12? 13?

dude....do u know how to read?

I'll butt in..... With umm (looks down) yes- 15 days left I have not seen ads yet. YOU MAY HAVE, but the public hasn't seen mush if any at all. Families today need to plan ahead. Not many will make the May 3rd opening. I almost couldn't. The line won't be over 2 1/2 hours.

I don't care if I'm first ever or last ever or whatever. It goes as follows:

One of the first 1,000- happy.

One of the first 500- ecstatic

One of the first 96 (three trains)- 98% Happiness (RCT reference)

One of the first 48 (two trains)- 99% Happiness

First Train- Happier than I'll ever be

I'll be happy any way though. I was ECSTATIC to be the first rider of B:TR last year.

For those of you who have the spelling problems, might I suggest ieSpell?

I will have pics April 24.

I can read. I have doubt as to whether or not your posted date of birth is correct.

I think it would be pretty sad if you were really 2 years older than me. Especially after that free speech comment you made..

Ok you guys this ride is a B&M brand new ride, its about 2000 feet shorter than raging bull is and i absolutely dont remember raging bull ever being a 5 hour wait even on the 1st day it was open

I never said Raging Bull was 5 hours long. I've seen the line 2 hours long plenty of times in the past 2 seasons. I've see Batman's line 2.5-3 hours long plenty of times in the past two seasons. Don't put words in my mouth.

maybe he has, but what does media services have to do with roller coasters?

as i said theres nothing i have to prove to u, a stranger, a no body, got it?

yes, Superman will have one long arse line, but there's no way it will be over 3 hours. not only is it not being push as the revolutionary ride that Batman was, but there are 11 other coasters in the park and tons of other rides for people to fill up. when Batman opened, there wasn't even the SW Territory.

basically, look for 3 hour lines on the weekends (not opening weekend, though as the park will be empty). 2 hour lines weekdays. those are max. numbers, btw.
