I will never hate you. You are trying to impress or keep us amused by posting news about new coasters around or "in" Florida. I can even see how much you are into them. I have seen your posts getting positive feedbacks so far from experienced coaster and/or theme park enthusiasts. Me? I'm beginning to find myself pathetic... because I'm not releasing NL tracks these days. Lol240 "I REALLY NEED TO WORK ON THEM!" shouts. :( + ;)

Your "coaster plan" thread is getting more replies than mine is! :D

I don't hate you either Deere, I've been trying to get some of these guys to calm down about making fun of you as well :lol:

Want an improvement? Don't beat yourself up over people's opinions of you. Just keep doing what you're doing with improving grammar (which I don't recommend capital letters at the start of every word like that) and practicing in NL2. I mean, look at the feedback you're getting already! :D

We don't actually hate you. You do aggravate us sometimes. Improving your grammar and spelling is a great start. Also, there isn't a need to capitalize every word in your sentences like you did in the OP.

Also, I've told you this before, but you have to learn when to drop something and move on. Sometimes you might say something and it'll be funny, but then you keep going on with it over and over and over and just gets annoying.

When posting rumors, indicating your source is helpful. It is not that we don't trust you, but everyone wants to know where you learned that and therefore one can judge how credible the source is. If its just you, its like me saying "Guys, SFMM is getting a 500' Intamin rocket 2016" and if I don't provide a source, everyone's like, yeah right... While if you provide a source, then one can feel more reassuring of the rumor.

Ok, first of all I don't hate you. Second, I think this thread is an awesome idea, and I might do one myself soon. I'm going to go out on a limb and give some detailed constructive feedback from the limited time I've had talking to you/reading your posts, don't be insulted by any of it, I'm just trying to be helpful since that seems to be what you wanted.

Ok, Here goes the wall of text.

We are both clearly opinionated people, in fact I would go out on a limb and say I was where you are when I first came on the site several years ago. The thing I've learned is to let your opinions scale with experience. For you this means if you have ridden less Intamins than you have B&Ms, then you should have a much less strong opinion about Intamin than you should B&M. Talking to you in chat you seemed to be of the opinion that Intamin coasters were somehow not forceful, and digging deeper you said you were basing this off Cheetah Hunt. The logical conclusion from this is that Cheetah Hunt is not forceful, not that Intamin rides are not forceful. Hell, just take a trip to Hershey and/or Cedar Point, and I 100% guarantee you that you will walk away with a different opinion. It would be like me Basing my opinion of B&M off of Batman - The Dark Knight @ SFNE, and concluding that B&M makes hands down the best rides to fall asleep on. The strongest unsubstantiated opinion I have at the moment is that RMC coasters are ugly and stupid, but I haven't ridden any of them, and I don't deny that they look like damn fun rides that pack a punch.

This second bit is just a pet peeve of mine that you happen to set off on multiple occasions.

This is not a great layout:

This is not even a real announcement.

This is also a great layout:


Oh dear god I need a new pair of pants:


I could go on but I don't really see the point. Great layouts do one or more of these things:

- Maximize efficiency of ride footprint

- Effectively interact with the environment/scenery

- Effectively interact with itself (track crossovers, etc)

- Look like a piece of bad modern art when you squint

Lastly don't argue with CKMWM. Just don't. He's wrong about a ton of things, he's stubborn, and he's often a pain, but he probably has a better sense of humor than you and might commit seppuku if he thought he lost an argument on the internet. Just remember he's a virgin who went to college to learn about rocks.

Love you CKMWM.

Find an argument I've had with Deere. Until then, don't make accusations.

I've lost internet, written, and presented arguments daily. I know when I'm wrong when provided evidence.

I think it's pretty low of you to decide to insult my education (that out-ranks yours) after I explained my lovely employment situation in chat. Do you go around to homeless people and make fun of them for not having an apartment? What is your deal? Why am I included in this?


Lastly Deere, just work on your spelling/grammar and maybe try to work on getting some more self-confidence. Don't forget that this was written in your Red Bandit thread about your invert:

tiepilot35 wrote:
While I could go on all day about shaping problems, I do have to say that for a newbie you have done pretty well for yourself on that inverted coaster. It's a somewhat realistic series of elements and something an invert might do. The first half is a bit long and the second half is definitely short: the mid course brake run is not in an ideal place in the ride.

I know why you say this one is not great. This seems to depend on how the coaster twists or makes loops, while other 3 coasters you posted in this thread (for a comparison), meet your needs below.

- Maximize efficiency of ride footprint
- Effectively interact with the environment/scenery
- Effectively interact with itself (track crossovers, etc)
- Look like a piece of bad modern art when you squint

Not only Deere but we're improving. :D
