Yeah, I love Vegas too. So much I'm coming back in March to stay with my friend for about 1 1/2 weeks. I can't wait to see the city again. It truly is a marvelous place.

All my co-workers who have been to L.V. have only been to the strip and have never experienced the rest of the city. That is something I highly reccommend.

I think ppl just like to b**** and complain because they are unhappy. These forums make a nice anoymous place to do so. Also, I think some ppl like to stir things up a bit- with their angry rants.
(maybe like one in this thread!)

Default BS Poll

If the poll does not offer positive as well as negatinve choices I strongly suggest not responding. Just drop a note to it that it is a BS poll. Do that a few times and these will go away.

Ohh - This is a BS poll.

I think that's unfair. I have been to Vegas and I like it. All I am doing is trying to figure out why SOME of you hate living there. I personally though L.V. was very attractive. yes you have your nasty parts. I saw those, but I want to REALLy here why people are so eager to bash the city.

A lot of people move here because they had a good time visting and being a tourist. When you move here and that fun tourist mentality dies down, you get the real sense that you just moved to a large city in the desert and its just like any big city over 2 million. I would suggest doing your homework and see if you are really going to like the cons vs the pros over living here.

Because they are trolls. They probably moved here without marketable skills, gambled away their paychecks from mcdonalds, hoping to win megabucks, could only afford to live in a roach infested trap downtown, or somewhere by Broadacres swap meet, are not educated (you can tell by their spelling) and then bash the hell out of our fair city so they have something to blame other than themselves.

They believe one little section of town is like the entire valley. When it's just that little section they got stuck in.
I do believe those types will also move on to other cities and states and repeat the process over and over again.
I cannot agree with you more there.
