I do not believe the same can be said for the HM interative queue where there are hardly ever any crowds. HM is an omnimover ride and gobbles up crowds. I have no problem with interative queues, this one is totally unnecessary and ill placed. And there are plenty of other places this one would have been more appreciated and better suited with some tweeking.<<<< Exactly, it created bottlenecks.

Any change at all.<<< But who's like that here? I think the most of us who said we didn't like this, said we were fine with other aspects of change.. ...for example, I like the new HHGs.

Could you please tell me how my reasoning is wrong other than simply attacking me for the sake of it? If your going to tell me I'm wrong at least have a plausible reason why I'm wrong. And so far I haven't read any plausible reasons why I'm wrong. There are a few of us that question this particular interactive queue and we have come up with a pretty strong arguement.

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo I do not mind change, and I do not find the tombstones to be that bad. For me, the real headscratchers are why the HM (when it has one of the faster queues) and with WDW's poor maintenance record, there are a lot of points of failure on this build. However I am still shocked by how many posts this has garnered.
Originally Posted By Manfried What's so funny about some of the folks who keep whining is how they speak in absolutes. "I thought I proved my case without a doubt." Well to you maybe you did, and to those who agree with you. But what about those who disagree with you? So we disagree. Just like the anti-changers posts, the pro-changers posts are just as valid. Then there is the occasional person, like me, who says "Wait a minute, me thinks thee dost protest too much." Well, how dare I. How dare I disagree with you because, according to you, you proved your point and no one is permitted to disagree. Well I'm sorry folks, I disagree. I think I proved my point.
Originally Posted By skinnerbox Oh please. You painted everyone in this thread with an extremely broad brush, claiming that the core of our dislike with the HM interactive queue was simply a dislike for all changes, in spite of our specific examples of changes made elsewhere or other interactive queues at different attractions that we like and enjoy. You just want to complain about other posters and shoot them down on a personal level, instead of engage them in reasonable debate regarding the new queue. You'd rather attack them instead of try to understand them. You've become defensive of the queue and have chosen not to tolerate anyone who doesn't like it. Most of us have remained calm and clear in writing about why we don't like the queue. You're the one who's being unreasonable.

As could the CHANGES (ahem) coming to TT.
