Did CP Breaker Express price went up?

Did the price for the Brekaer Express package go up recently? I recall checking a month ago and it was like $149 or 159 for the 2 day package and when I check now it is $195..

I bought one package on the first day they started selling them and it was 189.00, they are never 149.00 lmao.

:).. that actually makes me feel better hehe...

Just a little tidbit of information you might want to know...

Every time you butcher the English language, God kills a kitten. Please...think of the kittens!

Yes, it go up.

Think of the kittens!


At the turn of the Millennium, there were signs. Was the something out there?... A mysterious force at work? Beyond words. Beyond comprehension. Beyond, beyond beyond… A natural force simply known as, Millennium Force. The future is riding on it.…

I thought that was every time you... ah, nevermind. Family board.

Where do you think I got it from? ;) I think it should apply to grammar before...well, you know. :)

Oh you guys be nice. There are foreign people who do come here. Not everyone can be as well versed as you.

I know many Mexicans and folks from India (who have moved to Ohio) who visit here and English is new to them so just be nice, if that is at all possible. Would it kill you to just bite it (your tongue that is)?

I mean does it make you feel all superior and important to hurt people like that who are just asking questions about their favorite park? I noticed that going on here quite a bit before I became a member.

The owner has a great site here and puts so much work into it and I think it is a shame for people to come here and be offended just because English isn't their first language.

I hate slang and all the other garbage and am with you one hundred percent on that but not when you put people down with legit language barriers. Gives the board a high-school feel which is worse than the slang actually.

Generally anyone who has more than one grammatical error in their original post, let alone the title of their thread will get some kind of response. If you re-read my post, you will find that it's **gasp** humorous!

I think you are one of the people that should go visit Foamy that's in my sig...

You may think it is funny but I found it "high school" and am sure the person didn't find it funny either.

I talked to someone last year at GL about the way SOME of you people slam others over silly crap like spelling errors and asked them what your malfunction is. I was told it does get ridiculous and high schoolish here. THAT coming from one of your own members.

People come here to discuss Cedar Point not be bashed by people who FEEL they are superior to everyone else.

You probably end up driving good people away with your supposed "wit". Just because someone cannot spell doesn't make them any less important than you.

BTW you don't know a damn thing about me so don't tell me where you think I should go. I have a sense of humor and am kind to people who are less fortunate than I. I would never kick a person who is down or bash a person who cannot spell.

Who really cares if someone has spelling or grammar errors? I mean life is too short to give a **** don't you think? Maybe that is how you make yourself feel better about your shortcomings in "real life"?

Are you some fugly and bloated pig that feels insecure about your looks so you need to make others feel bad on the internet? I hope not but there is SOMETHING behind your need to hurt other people. Bad childhood? Former grade school nerd?

I am glad I have better things to do than spell check an internet message board. As long as you got the general idea of what they asked you could just answer and be polite. PM them if the spelling bothers you so much and offer to help them instead of making fun of them.

I don't care if you like me or what I wrote as I come here to enjoy the website the owner has put all this work into. At least I had the balls to say what I feel, unlike some others here who just think it but are too afraid to say it.

Maybe I AM making this a bigger issue than it needed to be but I just think some people go to extremes to make themselves look superior at some unfortunates expense.

I answered their question, there was no need for what you did.

Wow.....and you think he takes it too seriously "spell-checking" a message board?

His comment was funny...maybe a bit harsh, but meant in a joking manner. So because it is "high-school" to point out spelling errors, we shouldn't do it. God knows people shouldn't learn how to spell correctly, that would make sense.

Also, trying to get your point across by bashing him, just makes you look that much worse. The first part of your retort was intelligent and pretty well thought out, but you destroyed any credibility you had when you went into the whole "fugly" rant.

The grammar and spelling rules are here to make this forum easy and interesting to read. No one wants to decipher bad English, and yes, people do care. Would you want to read a newspaper with poorly written articles and bad spelling?

One of the problems with society is that people are lazy and don't take pride in doing something right. This applies to the McDonald's worker who gave me a burger with pickles when I ordered "no pickles", all the way to people here who think it is "good enough" to get a general idea out, instead of using correct English.

I don't think this is "High School", some of the posts read more like Elementary School.


I'd rather be in my boat with a drink on the rocks,
than in the drink with a boat on the rocks.

There is a guy who visits a PKI forum who is really large and instead of working out and getting into shape he ALWAYS puts others down because it makes him feel better about his own miserable self. If that is the case here with this fellow then I totally understand why they do it. I was just asking him if any of those reasons is why he chooses to bash unfortunate people instead of helping them, I didn't call him anything.

There are reasons why people have bad communication skills. If we don't know their reason why bash them?

If it is laziness I understand but what if they are from a foreign country or they had to drop out of school due to an abusive situation?

I don't post on any forum to get or maintain credibility, I don't care if anyone loves me or hates me. I have noticed this going on for years here and I felt I wanted to say something about it. Others here I know feel the same way but just won't say anything.

This is a quality website, one of the best I have been to, if not THE best. The bashing that goes on most of the time takes away from that and makes newbies feel like it is one big clique. There are many quality lurkers who would join but don't want to feel if they make a typo that they will be put on parade.

Get over it. It's not about you. It's not about anyone feeling superior. It's about communicating like a human being.
