I'm gonna be real brief - some peeps on this website REALLY need new names for some of their coasters. Go read my article on coaster names, and please, please, PLEASE give me feedback/new ideas so I can update/change it. and also, please don't give those awsome rides crappy names.

how many peeps have to read this thing?? - it's not like I'm bashing racial groups or somthing....I mean - the worst thing I've done in there is say some people have bad names for their coasters, and I've put in a statement saying I'll remove tmakers' names if they don't like being mentioned...I suppose the name of the coaster can come off too, but I'll have to find new bad names then...

I would call it helpful b/c I sometimes decide whether or not to download a coaster based on the name. For example, if people want to get their coaster downloaded and rated, it's not productive to name it something like "Blue" because that doesn't sound real good. one might put weeks of effort ntl a ride, and nobody downloads it b/c of a bad name...

but if someone makes a name of themselves by the quality of the ride they make regardless of the name, then the track name wont make much of a matter in the downloads and ratings eh?

[lol] we plan on editing a bit your article before approving it as it does have some good points but others need a little bit of adding, shows you took your time in doing it. Our moderator shaggszgn will take the time next weekend to brush it up a bit for you ok.

My tracks are always called what they are with a version number behind it:

Hyper V5.4
Floorless V6.1
Inverted Hyper V1.8 (new design)

Helpfull with deciding wheater it is your type of coaster, and it doesn't need much of imagination by me ;)

omfg who really cares on what a freakin name is, this is a waste of internet space, you name your coaster what you want and who cares.
