  1. I wanna say there was times where The Beast had to close down for safety of riders because the Cicadas were so bad back there.

    Also I have a memory of sitting out infront of The Paramount Theater with Ryan and the sound was absolutely deafening. 

  2. To tag onto what Shaggy said, when the marquee was replaced out they actually opted for the better hardware and software system at the time. After install, they were then told of different regulations on what they couldn't flash, show video, animate, etc etc and had to draw back a lot of the cool stuff the sign could do.

     

    But yet there is an organization on I-75 that sign gives you epilepsy as you drive past it.

    This whole situation bothers me. And I know the moderators and @Dane will do what is best for us. I trust them. 

    Pretty much whenever anything a certain somebody doesn't like something that is posted anywhere on the internet whether it be on Facebook, Instagram, Reddit, and that person is anyhow traced back to being a user on KIC (or even not). KIC community will get the full blame for it. Even though that person may have asked for admin for input before posting it to our forums. In which we complied with their requests in saying no.

    As long as photos are not in violation of any local or federal laws they are fair game. Inwhich mostly any shot from an airplane or helicopter is.

    No....why don't you ask @Dane if he is independent from the site. There's such a thing of a working-relationship...KIC scratches KI's back, KI scratches KIC's back. It is disrespect, Brad, Matthew and Robbie have responded and clarified the situation and that's not good enough for some people so they continue to argue about it. That's disrespect.

    KIC is an independent site from official Cedar Fair Kings Island. It has a working professional/political relationship to do this whole thing with them. They give us exclusive media and access to cover things to share with you and sometimes they ask for things to be removed or hidden. Its a give and take. We all volunteer to do this because of our love for the park. Sometimes it is fun and fulfilling, but also many times it can be quite stressful. We try and roll with the punches the best we can.

  5. I was offered to have a standalone app built but in the end, it just turned out to be more like tapatalk with KIC branding. Knowing that most people that use tapatalk are also members of other forums, it seemed more of a nuisance then a positive.

  6. It's hard to believe that something that started out in my bedroom at my parent's house has grown into something so big. It has brought me to do some very cool things and meet some very amazing people. It has brought and organized thousands of people together to discuss and enjoy Kings Island in ways never imaginable. (Those couples that got married, I'm looking at you!) And be a cornerstone in individual professional resumes to grow their professional career and growth.

    Today we take another step forward in the evolution of KICentral. A new modern design, faster and more dynamic site response and community-based content. In the past, it used to be that all site edits were through my Dreamweaver program and uploaded. Now with Wordpress, new dynamic forum software, and updated photo gallery engine, myself along with Robbie, Matt, and Brad can together cultivate and manage new content to grow KICentral. We will also be reaching out to some individuals to become contributors to the main site.

    Keep tuned into KICentral.com as we continue to push out new updates all season long. We have plenty of new content to publish ranging from 1971 to Mystic Timbers construction updates and other surprises during this 2017 season!
