    I'm not going based off reviews I've read on TA, Google and Yelp. Those people have most likely been. I don't see any trolls on this forum at all. Just people who have different opinions. It's simply easier for you to accuse them of being trolls. Says more about you than them.

    I think you need to do a bit more research on what a troll is. Someone who has been on a board for 5 years with over 15,000 posts is not a troll. In this case it's simply someone who doesn't share your personal opinion.

    "And it's not really Universal's fault if you and your kids don't WANT to utilize the the rapids river, the lazy river, the wave pool, the quiet pools, the play areas, explore the caves, interact with Vol, use any of the cabanas, luxury seating, or free chaise lounges, and you don't want to eat...

    Yes. As a Universal AP holder for 5 years and a member of these boards for more than 10 years, I'm trolling. Won't get into not understanding how Tapu works. It's such a ridiculous statement that I'm tired of defending. The fact that you say "every single on site guest gets to ride every...

    We're considering it, but it's not likely. We decided to wait and see if things vastly improved. While it sounds like things have gotten better, we're still reading far too much about excessive wait times. I could deal with it, but my kids would be upset.

    It's a discussion board. It's not a prerequisite that we must love everything about whatever the topic is. I initially came on this forum as I was completely psyched about going to VB in a couple of weeks. We already had our tickets, had a cabana rented. I couldn't wait. The theme is absolutely...

    You are absolutely correct. Problem with some on this board is the same problem as human beings we've had since the beginning of time. Some can't have a conversation without being rude and obnoxious to others. I've always had this hope that in this day and age where there is so much coverage on...

    Well, at least you don't put words in people's mouths. And at least YOU'RE not exaggerating. If you seriously can't distinguish the difference between not getting to go on slides and going to the bathroom, you're as helpless as your posts. All this has ever been about is not getting to go on any...

    I think the issue is just the sheer amount of negative reviews, and bad press. It's very unusual, especially given all the home runs Universal has hit lately. It's hard to turn a deaf ear to the complaints. And when you're talking about so much money and a precious day of vacation, at least I...

    And there are those that have been saying how ticked people were. It goes both ways and depends who you talk to.

    I was about to respond but see that Mr. Morrow has. TPI is a fansite. A great one, but fansite nonetheless. I've seen those reviews that are praising the park, and it has given me hope. Unfortunately, there are still far more negative reviews than positive ones. When it starts to shift more to...

    Not yelling. Bold isn't yelling. Caps is. My quote feature doesn't always work. I'm not slamming anyone's views. I'm sharing my views as to why I don't like the system as I know it to exist. The "industry" is not calling it a theme park. Universal is. Are you referring to that recent news...

    Speaking of details, you've stated a few times now that the system allows you to book the coaster and a slide at the same time. That was how the system started, but wasn't it changed shortly after opening to improve wait times?

    It's tiring having to try and point out to you that nobody, I repeat, NOBODY, is oblivious to the systems. All anyone is trying to do (though to their credit, most have simply given up trying) is to point out the flaws in the system that you INSIST on trying to prove are benefits. Again, maybe...

    "Obviously you haven't been there yet and are just making crude assumptions with the little information that you've heard. But let me give you some ideas. Wave pool, Lazy River #1, Lazy River #2, play in one of the play areas, MANY interactive elements, relax in a lounger, eat at one of the...

    You keep saying this as if you have free reign of the park. I don't know how else to put this. What good does not having to stand in a physical line do if you can't do anything else (besides the wave pool and lazy river)? There are 2 different scenarios here due to 2 different systems: 1. You...

    Rumor Brazil is the frontrunner for a new World Showcase Pavilion

    I always thought Russia or Australia would have made excellent choices. I can see why they'd back off Russia now due to current events. Haven't read the thread, so not sure if it's been said (though I'm guessing it has), personally, I wouldn't want to go near a Brazil pavilion. Tour Groups are...

    If waits are still at 5 hours, clearly, there are still major problems. I've been to both TL and BB at capacity, and never encountered waits like that. That being said, what concerns me the most is the idea that this is what Universal wants. There are 2 possible scenarios: 1. People get...

    Why would anyone want it to fail? Competition is a good thing for everybody.
