Diamondback FOF Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 Some of threads were then directed to another one, so you can't count those. Half of the threads were because of SOB colsing, so those wouldn't have been created if SOB was still operating. A couple of the polls were what people liked and a couple had to do with SOB closing. Huh, sounds like SOB closing had to do with a lot of the links you posted. Guess what, you created ANOTHER thread that has to do with SOB. You must not be too tired of them. Also, if you don't like all of the threads and polls about SOB, then just don't read them. It's not too difficult to not read, something is it? And HTCO, you might as well scream since this poll was just created. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And HTCO, you might as well scream since this poll was just created. You are incorrect. As I stated in the beginning, this poll is not about Son of Beast the ride. This poll is about just about polls; polls that happen to be about Son of Beast. Though the polls that this poll is about are about Son of Beast, this poll is not. In no way does this poll pertain to the actual ride itself. This poll is only about polls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Justin_M17 Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 They're really starting to get on my nerves. But I think that Beast1979, StalkerChick, and myself are planning a trip to go play with matches and lighter fluid in the vicinity of Son of Beast, so maybe that'll solve the problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gigacoaster2k Posted July 11, 2009 Share Posted July 11, 2009 I chose null vote, because I couldn't decide if the first option or the last option was more hilarious. Bring on the polls. It gives me something to do while I'm out of college for the summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faeriewench Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I think the constant polls and the general attitude to be extremely childish. The general attitude as in the whole "zOMG Son of Beast IS THE WORST ROUGHEST COASTER ON THIS PLANET!!!!!!11111" type posts. (Or how my mind interprets them as). I like coming on, but seeing a thread where "Son of Beast" is the title is a real turnoff and I usually try to avoid it. I know some people are going to think "wtf" at my post and those who know me personally are gonna have their jaws drop to the floor. This is how I feel and it is a forum so... There are some suitable topics and make more sense as polls like "most overrated major ride" or "underrated" at least its about the whole park, not just biased singling out one lone ride. And the amount always seems to increase whenever the ride is shutdown? I'm NOT a major fan of Son of Beast but I am not a hater either. I really despised it my first ride in 2000 but still tolerated it clear till its accident, and after it reopened I was a semi regular. I believe it probably would have been better if the ride was never introduced in the first place. But then again, how far could have these parks gone? (if it were possible, the country's economy began sliding then, along with that the coaster wars was as well have ended) Way I look at it design wise, that thing is a nightmare and shouldn't be standing and never should have stood. But it is here, and I don't blame Cedar Fair for wanting to take a shot at it, being the tallest wooden coaster in the world, ya know. If your someone like me who handles 65 pound bobcats every day know I deal with far greater pain than what most people get from this ride (for most a headache). Besides those, I've handled kangaroos, a cougar, my aunt's alligators and couple other things that could otherwise kill me if startled/angered/provoked in any way. Maybe that's just me. People are entitled to their opinion, there's mine. I like reading through KIC, not active I know, but it's still interesting read through. Poor Son of Beast always seems to get the beaten path. It's not smoothest wooden coaster and it is certainly isn't the roughest either. But for some if they never had the pleasure of leaving Ohio (or the midwest for that matter) there are some woodies that make Sonny look like a teddy bear. For me the smoothest is Thunderhead at Dollywood and the roughest is a tie between Colossus and Mean Streak (Six Flags Magic Mountain and Cedar Point) Ok I'm done >_> I had an emotional day I need sleep. EDIT: fixed grammar errors... I typed this thing up real fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markr Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 To be honest I find some of the responses to those us who have admitted to having negative experiences on SOB to be rude and childish. Respecting differing opinions works both ways, not just one way. The reason I was curious about the gender and age of those who loved Son of Beast is that the male teenage years are a time of a lot of peer pressure to conform. I am finding many of the responses of the teenage male SOB lovers toward us SOB haters to be typical expressions of peer pressure, ie we cannnot take it, we are sissies. I noticed at the same time quite a few teen males admitting to not liking SOB. To them I say "congratulations for sticking up for your convictions." I would not be surprised if that young man who fainted on Raptor was pressured by his buddies to go on the ride to prove he wasn't chicken. I see this all the time when I see a group of young people together. Please, if someone in your group does not want to go on a ride do not pressure them. There can be serious health consequences from pressuring someone to ride a ride that they are afraid to ride. I have grown very fond of many of you on KI Central. I will respect your differences from my opinion but please respect my differences from your opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtl2013 Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 seriously guys! this is getting a littl eout of hand. Nobody , repeat nobody needs to see or post this much about SOB. They are getting so old! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colonel_SoB_fan Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 I find it funny that Diamondback in the last year has had just as many threads about it, BUT NEVER did anyone complain. Seems to me like the haters again are preaching but not doing. If you guys want to end the SOB talk, then guess what don't talk or read about it.
