Maybe it's ego? Maybe it's how they get their kicks? No matter, to each his own, but how is that fun for everyone else?

I apologize for the post and I'm sorry it bumped down one of your countless, endless, nauseating complaints about this or that in the game. I made a few observations about how in my time in this game, which granted, is no where the time some people have spent, I have seen it change. If I posted how every track should have Trackus, or that every ride is bad or that Giant Oak deserves a look, would that have been better?
Well said Travis

his real name is Bossier City Slim.

Do have to commend Travis on his putting his name as his handle. There are already too many announcers who post with goofy handles so they can be anonymous!

So, are you saying you aren't really the real Travis Stone?
