I've never seen a grown man (a large grown man) attend theme parks as much as Robb does, how does this guy have time to work if he's always at the parks?

Love the new vid with Miss Ellisa, I guess they made up? lol

Ellisa has always been the star of their videos going all the way back the beginning. She radiates on camera and very compelling to watch.

Regarding Robb, I don't know if he has a real job given his criminal record, but he does make money from youtube, his website, and is his trips.

He's a game software developer the last I heard. But game studios are going bye bye as more people play simple crap on their phone (Flappy Bird). The big games on the computer are DOTA and Counter Strike Go (which I play).

That's good if they're back together. The same thing happened to me. Laurie left when the kid turned 4. I call it the Ho Playbook.

Dating, marry, have kids, new home, new SUV for her, baby room, stops working and stays home with the kid, then the woman gets bored when the kid turns 4, cheats and divorces. I call it flawed programming in the Matrix. There's no way the guy can stop it. The women talk to co-workers who tell them to leave the man, even if things really aren't that bad. So they cheat, divorce, cause a mess, and come back 4 years later once they find out there's really nothing better out there, and the other guys can't love their kids like the dad. In my case, Laurie also found god, and cheated with someone from church. That's why my name is NoGodForMe.

Just remember, when the kid turns 4, is when the cheating happens. The couples split up, then possibly come back 4 years later after they play the field and find out there's really nothing better out there.

Seriously, why don't you mind your own f*cking business?! If Robb wanted you to know what he does for a living, he would tell you.

Agreed, the reason he thinks this place would die without him, is that it never goes more than a month without someone starting, or bringing back, a thread about him. Who gives a shit,and here is a guess, the trips and website is his job. Sorry in 2014 that cant be that shocking.

For Robb to have a job that involves his long time hobby only pisses off the trolls on RRC who have pathetic useless lives. I sure many of us have dreamed of having such a career, but many of us have found other careers because life sometimes does not work out the way we expected it to.

Robb obviously has many talents that allow him in successful career in the amusement industry. To the troll who keeps bringing up this issue: Jealous much? Get a freaking life loser!

His job is TPR. They make money off ads for the website and Youtube. That is why he is always spamming here. He needs clicks for cash. Can't believe its much, but enough to get by. With their Youtube channel getting many tens of millions of views a year, my guess is they were making $50,000 plus. Although, they spam for the views, so I could see their ad click rate being sorta low. Unless their fanboys purposefully click ads, and it's the other way. Elissa's family is fairly wealthy too, so I would assume a big inheritance is looming. Her dad is hilarious.

But, Youtube is definitely dropping. Ad rates are plummeting since everyone can monetize now. I was invited to monetize, and couldn't believe how much I made. Not huge, but I expected nothing. Since monetization was opened to everyone, even if you get views, the dollars don't seem to follow.. A lot of people who live off it are struggling.

For a big video, he can probably pay for a trip with views. I'm sure his Gravity Max video paid for that trip. I don't see the India coasters doing the same for this last crazy trip to the other side of the planet for one park.

We'll never know for sure unless Robb decides to weigh in here, but I'd speculate that the group trips are where the real money is made.

This is hard earned money, by the way. Planning for a small group takes a lot of time; I can only imagine the complexities of bringing a large group around theme parks in a foreign country, especially those who are not frequent travellers.

For what it's worth, I agree with the other posters. Can we please stop starting Robb Alvey threads here? There's a perfectly good Facebook group where those who wish to can bitch :-)

I would not call that particular Facebook group "perfectly good" especially since it has ONLY 189 likes and was forced to start over with a new name after Facebook shut it down when several of its members started attacking Robb's daughter. The group is an unmitigated disaster! It's new name makes you wonder what the HELL are they protesting?

Yes, they do apparently have bitch sessions for losers that have nothing better to do...but you can't help but wonder whether these people (on that group) have any life at all given that they have devoted themselves to "tearing down" (if poking fun at someone can be called tearing down) someone who has made a successful career for themselves.

It was only in the last couple years we discovered healthy eating. Laurie cheated 18 years ago. It's only been recently that the research studies by Joel Fuhrman and the health movies came out. Now there's Whole Foods, and everyone is eating better. Movies you can watch (find trailers on YouTube).
Fat Sick And Nearly Dead
Hungry For Change
Forks Over Knives
Vegucated

These movies were not around 15 years ago. I was eating what I though was healthy. We'd make steak with rice and a side. It was the wrong diet. I had to starve myself to lose weight so I could fit on Millennium Force, but I did it. Now I'm 40 pounds less, all because of the diet.

All those people working out at the gym to lose weight, are wasting their time. If they go to Whole Foods, and eat the salad, the weight will fall off.

Getting back to the videos, I noticed on the latest celebration at Epcot, there didn't seem to be a ton of people there, maybe 20. And his channel is dropping because Coaster Force has just about every video out there. If we're going to ask anyone how they do it, that's the guy to ask.

It was a delayed reaction when Robb said go ahead, watch the Coaster Force videos. But I believe it's happening, I'm subscribed to that channel.

FYI,
Theme Park Review and Robb's Videos existed before he met Elissa...

"For what it's worth, I agree with the other posters. Can we please stop starting Robb Alvey threads here?"

Isn't it funny, though, that when nobody is taking about him someone just magically appears and starts or resurrects a thread, and Robb is RIGHT here to respond before anyone else? :-)




"I would not call that particular Facebook group "perfectly good" especially since it has ONLY 189"

Or, about the same amount of active posters at TPR.

"...was forced to start over with a new name after Facebook shut it down when several of its members started attacking Robb's daughter. The group is an unmitigated disaster! It's new name makes you wonder what the HELL are they protesting?"

Funny story, and you're actually wrong about how the group started. I started the group as an inside joke for some friends years ago and never did anything with it. Then the person who was running the TPR Sux page got spooked because they must not have understood that Robb doesn't have any real power when it comes to Copyrights (or, specifically, what to do when you're accused of copyright infringement and you've not really done anything).

When that page was shut down, people flocked to the page I forgot about. Then Robb tried to do the same thing to me several times, and, oh, look at that, We're still there even though he claimed we also infringed copyrights (His entertainment lawyers probably told him that).

" Yes, they do apparently have bitch sessions for losers that have nothing better to do...but you can't help but wonder whether these people (on that group) have any life at all"

Actually, there are people there that have a higher credit count that Robb, IIRC. Most of us have very good lives and travel a bit. And most of us don't even really spend much time on there. Definitely not nearly as much time as Robb spends trolling the internet, as well searching to see if someone is talking about him (or starting threads about himself on RRC).

"given that they have devoted themselves to "tearing down" (if poking fun at someone can be called tearing down) someone who has made a successful career for themselves."

Just like he makes fun of ACE and people with disabilities...I'd rather make fun of a man child than people with Aspergers...

The reason why Robb's name keeps coming up, is because people were banned from his site, and YouTube channel for stupid shit. I get that some people deserve it, but there's many people that were banned for making a comment on a topic that Robb disagreed with. So the admin gets uptight and pushes the ban button to win. There's threats like, "say one more word and you're gone." The problem is, the ban is forever. Not only that, he blocks the IP from the web site, but we've since learned we can get to it from iPhone after turning off wireless. And you're banned from the YouTube channel comments.

Well guess what, you can't push the ban button in this world. People can spout their opinion until they're tired of talking. In this world, Robb deflects the comments by posting 1 liner jokes, or a snarky come back. Then he posts some stats claiming there's tons of happy users on his board, and we're the problem.

The people who have been banned have pent up frustration. That's why they come in here and kick the ant hill. They post stuff about his personal life as a way to say, "You Suck Too."

The best thing to do is just ignore. Don't try to visit the web site, don't watch the YouTube videos. Eventually some other forum or group will come along that becomes bigger.

There's Ace, CFB, TPR, and there will be more. All of these groups were once huge, still have a following to some extent, but the pattern is repeating with users being banned or leaving.

Yeah, Robb has dug his own grave at RRC for sure.

If anything, hopefully parks that still look here, see this, and think twice about working with him.

Just last week he was making fun of a guy who's ridden Excelerator a ton of times, and is autistic, or something. You would think if a park saw him do that, it'd be the end of their relationship immediately.

What difference does his criminal record and other things have to do with anything? It is not like some other folks here are spotless angels. Other folks in this thread have things like multiple charges of harassment, DUIs, stalking and more. Alvey is an idiot, no question, but I feel some of this anger on him is put towards him as a scapegoat for the attackers own miserable lives. As soon as someone else has success, someone is bound to get jealous. The criminal record one is the worst and fully hypocritical because those folks likely have charges in their past as well. I am not defending Alvey, but some of these same folks are on the same level or worse than him. The hypocrisy is ridiculous.

The details still aren't clear, but apparently he was fired from Disney for Cause, likely theft of some sort. Perhaps no big deal, perhaps a much bigger deal that they didn't really blow up since he was fired without a fight.

The more telling history of Robb is that he has 4 kids that he has almost no contact with. Including his son that once posted on Robb's FB page, asking when he was going to be in LA, for a SFMM shoot. It was obvious his poor kid wanted to see dad, but the feeling wasn't mutual.

If he did that, it is awful. You have literally harped about Alvey almost daily for years. Do you not have anything better to do? I was in the "dump on Alvey" crowd until I realized it was a complete waste of time. He is a knucklehead, but I do not let it consume me. It seems that you and a few others constantly think about him. Do you not find that strange that all you do is surf around the net to go and give him a hard time? Do you do this to other folks? Is your goal in life to literally just go and attack him everywhere he goes? He is an annoying guy, do I let that consume me? No because that is a total waste of time. Get a life. At this rate you are as bad or worse than him. Then again, maybe you are him and just attempting to bring attention to yourself? Who knows. It is not healthy to be this obsessed about a person though. I know for certain that at least a person or two in this thread have criminal charges against them for things like harassment, stalking and other things. Do you have a clean past? Do you have skeletons in your closet that you are scapegoating upon Alvey? That is what he does. Are you doing the same? Get a life

I definitely haven't harped on him daily for years. It was only a year or so ago that he banned me, and showed his true colors. Years ago I attacked him, then was happy he was lowering ACEs powere. Then he became a complete power hungry dictator of TPR. And Elissa still stands by his side, which must be Stockholm syndrome or something.

It is only the last few months the anti Robb posts have resurfaced. Likely because more people are seeing his real side.

It really doesn't take too much time to check RRC while having my morning coffee a couple times a week.

actually, it's been pretty decent around here till all of a sudden some no name brings you up and you follow. I'm convinced you start these threads about yourself when RRC is talking about coasters.

As for me I have no kids, and no criminal history.

"every single thing" huh? So, you HAVE seen your 2 middle kids a lot lately. Sorry for that confusion.

And those police records someone posted are all fake.

And you don't make fun of guys with mental handicaps, or attack people on your Facebook account. Yeah, I guess that was all my mistake.

You have been your own boss for too long, have underlings that really don't have any life or career, so they will do anything you tell them to, and for some crazy reason, very few parks realize this, besides SFOT and a few others.

I find it interesting, that out of ALL the claims made against you by many people, you choose to deny one regarding your oldest children, and use that to say everything is false. I could be wrong, a child may choose to message their dad on FB in a public post about their wherabouts, even though you DO have a very close personal relationship with him, instead of just calling you and asking what's up.

You CHOSE to move thousands of miles away from your kids who were in high school at the time. You let two other kids move to another continent. You travel the world constantly, yet when you WERE in town, your kid had to ask you in a public forum what you were doing.

Regardless of what you say, I doubt many on RRC would share that plan of action.

No, he tricked his wife (with their 2 kids)into going home to the UK for a friends wedding, then once they were there (One of the kids was his 8 week old infant) He called them and told them to fuck off, it was over.. So basically, with the clothes they could pack for a week long visit HE DUMPED THEM in another country. He didn't "let them move", he "got rid of them".....for ewwwwlissa

That action alone show just what a heartless asshole he really is, OFFICIALLY!

You care enough to reply so that's obviously not true.

You care enough to continue to defend yourself.

You care enough to post every time some (most likely one of your minions baiting everyone else) one posts negatively about you.

You claim everyone else is obsessed, but you're just as obsessed with us, Mr Kettle.
