Was wondering what is the reason for the freinds to be in the profile page, is there anything that it does other then show that people clicked it? Is there a purpose for it, I am not familier with all the facebook and freinds sites.. Just wondering what benifit to having freinds or is it just more for show or statistic.

Stop by and take a look at lots of coaster photos, construction and trip reports.

It just shows you're friends with them and appreciate them. Facebook is where you connect with live chat, pictures, videos, status, and other updates.

It's hardly a statistic... it's a feature of the forums that have always been around. But since social networking took off, it has been redesigned with a bigger emphasis than what was there previously. It's people you truly have associated with in one form or another, and is controlled by you, not some sort of visitor list (which is at the bottom in that same column of your main profile page).

I would personally give Facebook a look (I had a MySpace, but I killed it because it was just filling up with crap and all), and that may help you better understand what's going on. ThrillNetwork even has a page on there.

Everytime I ride a coaster, it valleys. I've never been on a stalled coaster or had one roll back (except Wicked Twister and what was Superman: Ultimate Escape, which does that by design).
