The colours of wws.com are more gentle with the eyes, and also, coastercrazy.com is much easier to type than coastercrazy.com


EDIT: my 666th post!

I use WWS more. The colors are calmer. I think the rest of the coaster community recognizes this site more as WWS, it's a great original name.

Pretty much just because of the colours, coastercrazy.com isn't much harder to type then coastercrazy.com IMO.

Honestly man, the red annoys me. It is too hard on my eyes, and then with the stark white text things just seem to, intense. The blue is much easier to read and honestly I found WWS before I found CC, and once I did I stayed with the one that was easier on the eyes. But yeah, my first reason for using WWS is that the red is simply annoying and ... well ... [r]
Sometimes the best thing to say is nothing at all.

Same with me as well, I rather look at blue than red, also weeweeslap was the first, and it was easier to remember than coastercrazy, everything starts with coaster nowadays

The red scheme is really hard to look at for more than a minute or two, and the name WeeWeeSlap is just better than a generic name for a coaster site (CoasterCrazy) IMO.

This was the site I came to first and honestly I didn't even know about Coastercrazy until I started posting here more.

I joined coastercrazy.com before coastercrazy existed, so I suppose I go to wws.com over coastercrazy is because I've just been used to doing it for so long. The only times I ever went to coastercrazy were in High School when I didn't want to go through the trouble explaining to the people who look through the students browsing habits that weeweeslap isn't a pornographic web site.

But the colors on coastercrazy are way to intense for my tastes. Besides the blue really works well on this site.

I Love the WWS Colors oposed to the red CC color, also the banner is nicer, and it just looks better I dont know why, it just is better.

Its harder to spell. To retype the same letter isnt as natural as moving your fingers. coastercrazy. I can type it 5 times faster than weeweeslap because its not as natural.

But with that aside, I think its just the colors. And because most people use it, I got sick of logging into both.


Personally, Id like to see this scheme lighten up a bit, with more white.

Almost al lthe reasons I like WWS better were stated and there is no use retyping them again just to read it again. So I stand for the same reasons posted above.

WWS has better colours and has a way better name, CC is just a boring name.

WeeWeeSlap, just change the CC site to blue. People can either bookmark the site or live with typing the full name out :)

That's just my advice, but I use WWS because I've always used that name and it became a habit, didn't know CC existed until a few months later.

Well.. same as RRollergod, and a few other things. One for example is that on coaster crazy they have that thing where you have to rate a certain amount of coasters, with the amount you have downloaded. That got annoying. Also yea, colors, and weeweeslap being easier to type.

If people like one skin or the other, maybe we should have a color chooser between a few choices (maybe?).

Its only annoying for people who want to mooch offf of hard work and not provide any feedback. Dont be lazy. People provide you with some entertainment and they get nothing.
