Maverick44 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 I heard yesterday this was an issue at CP stopping coasters as they see phones out. I wish people would really stop doing this. Its gonna come down to not having any phones in line / on ride ( in pocket) and having to buy a locker that $100 for 4 hours haha 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waltny Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Did anyone else see the incident over at Banshee last night around 830? There was a woman inside the gated area under the loop by the ice scream zone running around and trying to climb the gate. There was a guy(another guest I’d assume) chasing her and the older security guard was also chasing her down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn’t there but I HATE when people do this, if you’ve already released a train onto the lift or anywhere that has a brake in front of it, you have to E stop to attempt to prevent an event like happened with Raptor. Single person that was already not following rules by having loose articles unsecured now wants to break even more rules by endangering their life and the safety of those onboard. For a cell phone, wallet, whatever it is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a group of 6 with a handicapped rider that they held the gates for so they could board. Fine, no problem. We then get on and head out of the station. Halfway up the hill we stop. A member of that party had a phone out and a worker walked up and took it from them. I’m sorry, but after being told on every ride that you can’t have them out, these incidents should result in an automatic ejection from the park. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benjamin22 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Yeah Kings Island is definitely ejecting them, I’ve seen 4 party’s this year with their cell phones out all of which were ejected from the park. They often times stack the trains to wait for security to arrive. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawaiian Coasters 325 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I saw a guy yesterday run up onto the off the charts stage before the show and sat behind the drum kit to get a picture. Let me say the sound guy wasn't happy and got him off the stage quick, but he wasn't ejected from the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That particular group not only held up that train by boarding, but also by having a camera out afterwards. So they really slowed up the capacity that hour. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The story had nothing to do with disability. Same story could have been told without the disability comment.

Working as an advocate I hate when people try to demean and put down those with disabilities. Your comment came off negative in that aspect. It made it sound like we should be upset because they used the access they needed.

In my original post I even stated “no problem” about waiting for them to load. What I have a problem with is when someone thinks they are above the rules.

Guys, I am very confused. This is my old account that I used when I was younger -- much younger. Can someone please let me know what I'm saying here -- and how, in 2009, I use the term "Banshee" -- capitalized, too. Why was I using the term "Banshee" at 11 years old? Was I psychic? I am very weirded out... Edit: I notice now that a few of you have already responded to this. I had no idea.

I am very weirded out... Sorry to make this boring, but "Banshee" seems to be capitalized in your old post due to a bug in the forum software. A filter was enabled in 2014 that automatically corrects capitalization of ride names. A forum upgrade in 2015 seemingly applied the filter to existing posts, which shouldn't have happened. I looked at a pre-2015 backup of the forum database, and "Banshee" was not capitalized in your post. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
