Improving Que Lines
Cedar Point had the que experience on point with the live DJs back in the late 90s and early 00s. It’s a shame they stopped doing those.

You do realize HW has been around longer than KI right?

Kings Island 2016 Discussion Thread
Few cycles for each ride/train on established rides and the mechanics are happy. Or until the State says they are happy. Which I believe is a certain amount of complete cycles. Terp? Keyword: mechanics....On established rides, the state inspectors aren't so much worried about number of cycles. They are generally more concerned with the safety of the ride. Such as restraints, E-Stop functionality, ETC

Which coaster do you want to come next.
Although not realistic, I'd love to see Firehawk get the scrap yard and a terrain B&M flyer be installed in the woods somewhere.

Vortex Gets a New Paint Job
If that is indeed true, it seems to me like they should have just replied with "Thanks for the suggestion. We will consider it for future maps." We all know they won't but at least it comes across better than what they allegedly replied with.

It's been awhile since it's been completely repainted. They repainted the running rails in 09 when Diamondback debuted.

Plain and simple, CoCo Key is a sh!thole .

Avoiding the front gate photographers
To echo what someone else said, sorry but no. If they don't like their job, they can quit. This reminds me of the people who work in retail then complain they have to work Thanksgiving/black Friday.

KI: An Alternate View
Remind me not to go anywhere with the author of that story. If you already have your mind made up that you're going to have a bad time then guess what? You're gonna have a bad time.

Kings Island 2015 Discussion Thread
Just because it's ok by law still doesn't mean it's ethically right. Sure let's put kids at the bar where me and a few friends decide to throw back a few Pale Ales and enjoy the evening hours of the park. Kids have no place there, its where alcohol is consumed, it looks trashy..... Assuming the kids weren't being served alcohol by their parents, what's the big deal? It's Kings Island. Not a bar district.

Kings Island's Wurlitzer 157 Band Organ Plays Again!
....I guess you also don't understand why people volunteer to work the Kings Island Kicks Cancer (a lot of those folks "harassing" guests to kick a soccer ball are volunteers). .. ...A few members on this forum are probably a salaried employee and essentially "donate" time in excess of 40 hours/week to their respective employer, of which many employers probably are making enough money and could compensate. I guess you don't understand that either?... I understand the difference between salaried employees and non salaried employees. I also understand someone donating their time/money for a cause/charity that helps others in need. Sorry but, I wouldn't classify as Cedar Fair being "in need." I love Ohio State football but you won't catch me painting the end zone just to make sure it's the right shade of red.

He stated in a previous post "All of this I'm doing for free by the way."

I will never understand why people volunteer their time and money to a company that profits millions of dollars. If the park wanted to get the organ working properly, they would have.
