Thanks man. I almost screamed and pulled my hair out until I saw your post.Crazycoaster said:^ I don't see anybody "Exploding with outrage" in this thread?
People are making valid points, Joey merely pointed out the fail rate of the rides opening on time, and Smithy commented how people ARN'T talking about the delayed opening.. Nobody's complaining that there have been delays, it's just been pointed out.
In fact;
Joey said:I'd rather it was late and done properly
Seems a mild enough statement..

There's a thing called the Broken window theory which basically says that people will care about a neighbourhood less and not bother fixing things if they see that something is already broken. It applies to Merlin here - if they can't be bothered to finish off the paint job on Oblivion, when something else gets broken it'll be all to easy to think (subconsciously) "well it didn't matter for Oblivion so it won't matter for this" which leads to degradation of the area. On the other hand, if the area is finish properly and it looks amazing, then something breaks, the natural reaction is closer to "OMG - WE MUST FIX IT IMMEDIATELY!"
The park is open. Oblivion is open. They aren't going to close Oblivion to paint a section unimportant enough to leave in the first place, and I'd disagree with the decision to close Oblivion mid season after having it open for the park's opening... It may get done next winter, but by that point the current fresh paint will have weathered in, and painting over it will leave a seem. It's this lack of professional foresight, as Furie so aptly put it, that is the problem.Aren't people getting angry at Oblivion's paint a bit too soon?
Oblivion's hole needs more attention

Well, if that's true, than whoever said we were jumping on it too early will have been right! :lol:Nemesis Inferno said:Lots of people stating around that the Oblivion picture is old...
Apparently...
