What browser are you using? What happens after you like a post and then reload the page? Remember that the issue does not occur until the page is reloaded, and then it only occurs on the desktop themes, not the mobile theme. Im using Chrome version 32 and I'm back to having the issue... For a little while I didn't have an issue again then it's back to not working. So as of now, I can't unlike again.

I'm also no longer having issues with unliking.

Anyone else having issues unliking comments? I can like them then it will pop up the unlike, but if I reload the page, I can't unlike it, the little box isn't their. Note: tired it with IE 11 and Chrome version 32, both gave the same results.

Issue fixed You can also see it on the right hand side of KIC, right below the ad on the right.

April 18th (Friday) will be opening day for Kings Island! Will you be going? https://twitter.com/kingsislandPR I probably won't be because I will be getting to go the 17th!

Can't wait to ride this bad girl! I'm probably getting to go on April 17, and this year, for the first time, my family has gotten Platinum passes!

Exorcist - Theme song Contagion - Might be considered the theme song, been while since I seen movie. My favorite personally for Banshee! Ink Spots - I don't Wanna set the World on Fire, Some things could be edited out to make it work better. Resident Evil: Extinction - Main theme
-
I had a dream last night that I got to ride the Banshee. The dreams starts off by being right next to Banshee then waiting in line back by some service road. Little did I know, that we were going in the exit for some reason and we got to ride it before everyone in the 3 1/2 hrs line. So ounce we got on it the ride op was all pumped up screaming "You ready to ride?!" We yelled Yea! We are then launched up a spiraling hill but just barely fast enough to make it though. then we go through is weird double loop thing but we were going so slow that some wheels in the middle of the track had to help us move. the ride was very boring and not intense at all. almost all reviews were 1 star saying how boring it was. I would of compared it to The Great Pumpkin coaster with loops and much longer. I'm thinking this ride is gonna be pretty fun in real life! In my dream the ride probably never got above 30 mph.

Disney Underground
Sonofbeast2.0 replied to Ride On_17's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
my brother was working on a degree for culinary down in Orlando, so during that time, he worked as a chef inside Cinderella's castle. He also got to see the tunnels and he said it's nothing cool but it's amazing how they do stuff like that. Also here is some fun little facts: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Og3ugAs64L4 -
I think they should change the whole park to a Solar panel ground (except line queue's) . Reasons why: 1. Would allow their electric bill to drop quite a bit 2. Bring an egg day, where you can cook an egg on the panels 3. Would lower the amount of time people would stand in one spot, except lines. 4. Grills would need minimal usage. same with fryers, pour some oil on the panel and then their ya go! Then could cut back on food costs, or increase to pay for solar panels. Reasons not to: 1.Shoes may melt to panel. 2.Everyone might be trying to bring and egg with them, every day. Please note: I'm just having a little bit of fun. if requested I can change my said post to something on a more serious note.

Do you think KI should rid almost all other restaurants that aren't "owned" by KI? Like keep stuff like Jukebox Diner and get rid of Subway and replace it with their own version of subs, rid Chick-fl-a, replace with their own grilled and breaded chicken options at a lower cost. do the same to Panda Express and anything else i'm missing,but leave stuff like, Graeter's Ice cream, Starbucks, Cinnabon, and then also keep Laroas's and Skyline because that us something that can only be found local. So anything except for the few exceptions, I think should be changed to Ki's own brand of food. Make some more exclusive food/drinks too that can't be found anywhere but KI (or possibly other CF parks). I would also like to see a more relaxed and sit down restaurant in the park. Other than Red Hall of Fame Grill.

Interview with Don: 2014 Improvements and Additions
Sonofbeast2.0 replied to TombRaiderFTW's topic in Kings Island

Ohh the memories that brings back! Makes me feel old...

Thanks fixed!

My first time will be opening day at night. Don said it will become many people's new favorite night ride, so my first ride is gonna be at night, opening day! (As long as good weather!)

Which Action Theater Attraction Is Your Favorite?
Sonofbeast2.0 replied to Stitch's topic in KI Polls
I hope they gut the dino thing and change it back to moving seats and possibly do a 3D ride with Snoopy or something. Ohhh maybe a prequel to Boo's Blaster to make sense of the ride! Find out how they started and then enter a big haunted mansion and see the things they do on a daily basis. Give the Boo's Blasters ride a bit of a overhaul and make it more exciting too. -
My encounter with a wild animal during Haunt
Sonofbeast2.0 replied to KI-ORIG-EMP's topic in Kings Island
Actually u should of let it spary you and have someone with a mic close by cause you will win Banshee scream contest! -
I want a setup similar to Universal... but nothing like Universal. I want each house to be based on something CF made. Like make fictional back stories to all of them or have something based around the KI "ghost" or Banshee, but nothing has to be based off of movies. I think that is Universal's issue why the quality dropped... They are "Out sourcing" to movies that they don't own the rights in and paying big bucks for that. When it was year 19 With Saw (Saw might not been their movie?) and Chucky and Werewolf, they were using their own movies and that was the best year they have ever had! I want this to feel like a great theme park haunt not like any other haunt out their! KI could come up with some great idea's and so could CF! I've learned over the year's that being based off a movie don't make it a great haunt, it can but not always... I'm wanting something different with KI but not something the same as Universal.
-
I don't feel a pay as you go attraction would be cool but instead cut down the haunted houses to 8-6 houses and improve them and scarezones, then possibly making this a separate ticked event. (No free entry for, season, gold or platinum passes. I do know season passes don't get free entry. ) Must buy a ticket at $25-$40 to enter. This would then lower waits and allow for even better quality haunt! But to be nice to pass holders offer a discount (maybe 10-25% off) for admission to haunt.
-
To confirm, go to 3:13 in my interview with him on 8/12/13! So it is quite possible for retheming to the area... he said something along the lines "We will let are guests come and see on opening day 2014", when asked if their will be any other improvements for the area. So FD improvements and possibly renaming AZ is possible!

UOR/HHN & WDW Review
Sonofbeast2.0 replied to Sonofbeast2.0's topic in Other Amusement Parks & Industry News
I didn't think it was that bad but the movie wasn't one of my favorites. I'd give the movie a 5. (based on the scale above). I really didn't mean crap lol, just my mind is ready to melt down now lol. -
I will be saving HHN 23 review for last.... Each chuck of the review will be broke into bits and have a different color. Reviews will be based off of a 10 point scale, 1 don't waste your time and 10 being one of the best ever. Walt Disney World: So this would be my like 15th visit or so to WDW, we got about every other year to Disney. I will be doing a short review on this, just the new stuff I haven't rode before/seen before. Shows: Monsters inc. Laugh Floor: This was rather funny. It uses a lot of audience participation. At times the monster will pick fun of people, other times have them help them. They never did pick on me but they did say my brother is buying churro's for everyone in their, I STILL HAVEN'T GOTTEN MINE! They also allow people to send text messages in of jokes and they read some off. The show was quite good and great for the whole family (shocker their ). overall a 7: It was overall good and funny, nothing that really made me laugh really good. Was to short of a show. The Legend of Captain Jack Sparrow: Lets start this off by saying I like the movie series but this, DO NOT waste your time! you go in a room and stand their for about 5 min and you watch Jack, shoot another boat and you get shot at. The end... Overall 1: It was pointless and didn't make much sense, it felt slapped together in one day. I would reccomand doing a marthon on It's a Small World over standing for this "show!" Rides: Under the Sea ~ Journey of the Little Mermaid: This is similar to haunted mansion (the way it's set up). It is a rather slow ride, it has a bunch of moving little figures from the show/movie. quite well themed, but it is short ride. overall a 5: nothing special but something the whole family can do. Recently overhauled, Test Track: The test track is now a ride into the future. Before you board you get to build your own car and then it gets rated against the other peoples car in the ride. Nothing was really added more just everything was futurerized. It was a very fun and exciting ride one that had me wanting to get back in line and ride it all over again! overall a 9: They really hit the hammer on the head with this ride, it was very exciting and was cool getting to compare how my car did compared to my brothers! My brother won overall, just by a little bit!. The Sea's with Nemo & Friends: this ride was also rather short and something fun to do with the whole family. Nothing really special except at the end they make it look like all the fish are really swimming in the ocean! overall a 6: Was kind of cool but nothing that really wowed me. Soarin: This is different... and I like it! it is a slow moving ride the makes you feel like you are flying though the air. it raises you off the ground probably about 50 ft and gives the feeling that you are slowly turning and flying though different scenes. It is a slow paced ride and uses different scents depending on the area your a currently in. Overall a 8.5: quite fun/ cool and it is relaxing, rode it 2 times and if I could of would of rode it another 2 times. Food: Both of these restaurants are in Magic Kingdom. Some place right before the WildWest looking area: We split this meal (me and my brother) because later that day we were going to go eat at a nicer place. We split a Sweet and Spicy chicken and waffle sandwich... It sounded half good and we were wanting to try something different so we got one and, I would say that was easily one of the best meals I've had at a theme/amusement park! It is nothing like anything I've tasted before and was perfect! Overall a 10: This is something you don't wanna miss! It's $7.39 (i think) for it and it was definitely worth it! I was mad I couldn't get another one! Liberty Tree Tavern: He is how this restaurant works, the meals are brought family style and have unlimited refills. you get a salad (with house dressing) and rolls to start with, then for the main course you get turkey, steak, and pork, sides are, mashed potatoes and gravy (gravy is on the side), some veggies and some green beans too, stuffing, and mac and cheese, and for dessert you get a apple bread cake thing with ice cream on it. drinks are free refills too and I didn't try the veggies or beans and didn't get the chance to try the pork. This food was beyond amazing!!! their was great flavor and everything was hot and fresh! I mean you should book a Disney vacation just for this restaurant!!! This was some of the best food I've ever had in my life! the price is $30 a person, BUT GET A LOAN FOR THIS RESTAURANT IF YOU NEED TO!!!! overall a off the charts good!: Why are you still reading this review?!?! go get a reservation for this restaurant now! Uinversal Orlando Resort: Just like Disney only doing review for new stuff and will be doing food too. Ride: Transformers the Ride: This is a lot like the Spider Man ride they have in IOA. At first I thought the ride was alright but now riding it a few times I've really started to like it! It has a scene where it looks like your really in the movie! Then their is a scene where a weapon is fired at you and the air is really warm. It is somewhat of a copy cat, but in this case it's not a bad thing! overall a 8: A very fun adventure and would be fun to ride over and over again. The ride could of been more intense, it was fairly mild. Food: Both in UOR side. Mel's Diner: You get the meal deal for $25 and you can eat from open until 30 min before the park closes at several restaurants for "free"! Mel's double bacon cheese burger with a side of chili cheese fries is where it's at! their food is pretty good but, some of the best fast food I've had. overall a 8: satisfying food but the burger could use more flavor... Monster Cafe: The food here was alright, first time I got a rotisserie chicken and it was good but not the best and then got a lasagna and it was not that great either. overall a: 5: was okay but wouldn't jump for joy to eat their again. Side note: Beverage: Flaming Moe, It is a drink that has dry ice in it and only cost $8! Man what a steal! Okay jokes aside now, the drink tasted like Orange Crush that wasn't cold and was bubbling and had "smoke coming out of it. the dry ice is kept in a little netted area so that way you don't eat it. Overall a 3, looked cool but that's it. Halloween Horror Nights 23: Some of you may know I hated last year's and this year would be my 4th year attending. Soooo what do I think compared to last year, well... ScareZones: Walking Dead zombies: I like walking Dead and I like zombies, but I don't see them as all that scary... Some of their make up was cool and some of the props used throughout their scarezones were cool, but never did I get that Universal "wow" moment like i used to... overall a 5, alright but some cool make up and props. better than last year's scarezones? Yes. Houses: After Life: Death's Vengeance: This was a 3-D maze, it felt very gimmicky and forced scares. It was alright but nothing great. Atmosphere: 5 Scare: 5 quality of makeup: 4 Better than last year? Equivalent to a last year house Evil Dead: The atmosphere in this one was pretty good. You walked into a cabin and it had like newspaper articles everywhere. You see many similar things to the movie throughout the house. It was short some actors but wasn't bad. Atmosphere: 7 Scare: 3 Quality of makeup: 7 Better than last year? Yes. La Llorona: This one looked like you were walking into a oold church. The back story is the girl is looking for her dead children. that's all I know to the back-story but the atmosphere is alright mixed with some good scares and decent makeup Atmosphere: 5 Scare: 6 quality of makeup: 7 Better than last year? Yes Havoc: Derailed: This one don't make much sense on its back story but from what I understand their is some insane people on board and this train flips over and they escape... Their is military men that fight along side of you at the beginning but faze out towards the end. the detail is very good in this house some of the best! the actors no so much... Atmosphere: 9 Scare: 6 quality of makeup: 3 Better than last year? Yes Resident Evil Escape from Raccoon City: This is tied in with the game series more than the movie series but it is a nice set up! the zombies that are infected with the T virus are covering quite a bit of area and their is a few "super zombies". the makeup on them is alright but the atmosphere makes up for it. Atmosphere: 8 Scare: 5 (zombies don't scare me much but I do like zombies!) quality of makeup: 4 Better than last year? A little better The Walking Dead: No Safe Haven: (Spoiler free!) Before you enter their is zombies chained up outside and they are trying to lung at you and they try and attack you. ounce inside you are like on the streets and their is zombies all around and you are heading for Wood-bury. At one point you must crawl below the zombies in order to enter Woodbury. Even ounce your in though ur not safe. then you move onto the prison and ounce their their is zombies surrounding you from each side, you can't move left of right without bumping into one. Atmosphere: 8 Scare: 5 Quality of makeup: 6 Better than last year? Yes An American Werewolf in London: Werewolf's don't scare me much either but the way they put this one together, they did pretty good! Their was a high level of detail and a decent amount of scares. their wasn't much for makeup since it was mostly costumes. Atmosphere: 9 Scare: 6.5 quality of makeup: N/A Customes: 7 Better than last year? Yes! Cabin in the Woods: This right here makes it better than last year all together! The movie was alright but I said it could be a good haunted house to my brother. Well I was right! This gave me the scary feeling of not wanting to go around the corner, their was blood all over the place! they pulled made you feel like your right in the movie with this one! It was a heart stopper fun good time house! Atmosphere: 10 scare: 10 quality of makeup: 10 Better than last year? BY MILES BETTER! Shows: Bill and Ted: This year's Bill and Ted theme was based around popular pop culture singers. They found any news that could be used in a funny way, and made a great Bill and Ted show! Taylor Swift is Bill's girl friend and she is the evil one that starts it all. Oh does anyone know? What the fox say!? Overall a most excellent Bill and Ted adventure! a 8 for this year's Bill and Ted! Rocky Horror: Instead of a jump to the left they made a step to the right this year! the actors were spot on (which is scary! lol)! Rocky looked like a Rocky and Brad and Janet looked liked Brad and Janet! Everything was made right! they crossed their T's and dotted their i's this year! Over at the Frankenstein place their a 10! Overall: WDW: 7.5 It's got such an overall special feel to it! UOR: 8 their is more enjoyable rides for someone like me at Universal HHN: 6.5 They are heading in the right direction. they are bringing back the special feeling. I hope they keep doing better!

We got are tickets for $59.99 and got to come the first 3 weekends. (getting ready to work on review!*). I don't know which one's are getting dumber... the parents or the teens (not all teens/parents ). As for the families with children.... lol about that... me and my family let are 5 year old nephew go to it the first night... yes, he did get scared a lot but, he liked it! He was laughing at the zombies! Now as a side note, we let him go though the first 2 houses and if he got freaked out to bad, my mom was gonna go back to the resort with him, so in no way was he forced to go. Instead he went though all 8! (we didn't get all 8 done in one night). *I will be labeling my review for HHN 23, as "WDW and UOR/HHN review". do I will be reviewing 3 things, HHN, UOR, and WDW. the bulk of the review will be aimed at HHN. look for it to be up in the next 30min to an hour! (have a lot of typing to do!)

What could KI do to each ride to improve it?
Sonofbeast2.0 replied to thoe124's topic in Kings Island
Flight of Fear: Have lights like it used to‚ making it look like your launching into space. Some lasers shooting back and forth some alien noises extend the breaks (if possible) at the mid brake run to hold the car at a banked turn right their. BLSC: revive full fire effects‚ turn water effects back on. Boo's Blasters: a new family dark ride that has some cutting edge technology in it . Allow shots to be made visible too. Miami valley railroad: have short little reactments in the sections of where some props are. Ex. Have a old west shoot out by saloon. Some cool things id like to see. Give Soak City as a whole more of a Caribbean feel theme. Have some fake plam trees‚ giant sandbox to build sand castles and have competitions (free 2 day tickets or 2 Fast Lane tickets. Some chairs made out of bamboo. Staw umbrella's‚ steel drum bands playing (Love the sound of steel drums! ). Some are highly unlikely or impossible but it would be cool to see some upgrafes or changes!
