Original post:

Errors on KI's website can be posted here.

NOTE TO KI: It is not imperative that you fix these errors ASAP. We understand that running a park is hard.

Current list of Errors:

• Roller coasters (except for PS coasters, AE, and BLSC) are listed under Thrill Rides. Why isn't there a seperate Roller Coasters page, like CP and Carowinds? (Reason given by BoddaH1994)
• The Eiffel Tower is listed as being 231.5 feet. Is this just the elevator? The actual tower is 314 feet, according to what I've heard (and, also according to what I've heard, the antenna at the top of the tower was shortened to make Drop Zone Tower the tallest structure in the park) Now it says 331.5... Is it 314 or 331.5?

I'm not trying to be nit-picky. I just would like to see KI's website have correct information.

Thats funny to think that they would shorten the antenna on ET just so DT would be the tallest structure in the park. KIC lists the platform of ET and the drop height of DT as 264'. I know KD claims that DT's and ET's "platforms(for lack of better term) are both 272'.

 I'm not able to open up the rider safety guide. Can any of you download it? Everytime time I try to open it I get get this.

Couldn't open the file. It may be corrupt or a file format that Preview doesn't recognize.

Drop Tower drops from a height of 264 feet. The actual height of the tower is 315'. The Eiffel Tower has two platforms at the top, one at 275' and one at 265' The tower stands 314'.

[BoddaH1994]

Having the coasters under the Thrill Rides section was intentional. They wanted to do it that way.

Lets find some more things to complain about!!

I'm not complaining. Besides, it's not like there are a ton of errors on the website like the old one, so these should be easy to fix (except mayube the roller coasters one, which I will remove).

[HTCO]

I'm just saying. They are probably aware of it, and they do a lot to make Kings Island one of the best experiences for all. Sometimes just saying nothing at all, is the best thing to do.

[BoddaH1994]

If you really want something to do, find the errors on KIC. Make sure you have coffee available.

At the bottom of the homepage, the You Tube is linked to VisitKingsIsland. Which isn't what they use....

And it's linked to my friend's You Tube! HAHA!

Outdated images:

Back Lot Stunt Coaster - shows the cars with their lovely Mini theme

Character Carousel - taken back when it was still HB Carousel, apparently during the short-lived Winterfest revival

Other:

The "On the map" thing for Shake Rattle & Roll doesn't actually show where that ride is, though it is centered on the proper section of the park.

^it also says that character carousel opened in 2010, i could have sworn i remembered riding it when i was five.

nobody's complaining about anything, well, at least in this topic

[HTCO]

To me, when I read this topic. All I hear is complaining about what Kings Island isn't doing, rather than what they are doing. But whatever. Just my opinion.

I totally agree.

[LongliveKingsCobra]

To me this seems like we don't have enough stuff to complain about (legit-ly) so we nit-pick at the little stuff. Let it go. At least we got a new website, a new section, a tech. new ride. Stop being so P.C. when it comes to the stats about certain things, or when something opened...I mean yeah, it's important that the facts are right, but do we really need to attack every little comma that is out of place, or period that is wrong? No.

[HTCO]

Thanks for some support! Hahaha.

I find myself happiest when I am not worrying about every little thing. I suggest the same for some of you...

*emphasis added* When i see this i don't see complaining at all... well i do see it, but only by those complaining about complaining.... *cough*

What i see here is a simple help at editing. No one stated anything about commas or crap being missing. People were SIMPLY STATING things that could be changed to help better the legitimacy of KI's Site. Like the YouTube link... seems like a pretty big error to me. For all we know there's only 1 or 2 ppl keeping the site up. And maybe they have to do their own editing. Ever tried to edit your own paper? Did you find every mistake every time? I doubt it. Do you know how to legitimately build a website? at least of KI's size? From code? (not like simple premade myspace/geocities setups). I doubt that too, b/c if you did, you'd understand exactly how hard and time consuming it is to go and make sure every single little tiny bit of coding is 100% correct/accurate. They may not have the time/funds to look at every single little bit of whatever. but obviously they have looked at this post and have fixed those mistakes. and if able to post i'm sure there would be a big "thank you so much i can't believe i missed that" post. So seriously if you're gonna whine and complain about whining and complaining... then just don't look at this page? simple really. you kinda gave yourself advice now lets go play practice what you preach

Alright...?

Again, in MY opinion, when I read that I thought of a little whinny teenager behind a screen and keyboard complaining about what Kings Island has not done. Think of all the things they are doing, before you go and critize what they don't have on there. Like you said, I know it is VERY hard to encode and design a website, and knowing the exact stat of Drop Tower is not on the top of the to do list. With that said, maybe you should practice what you preach.

[LongliveKingsCobra]

Now it just sounds like someone is complaining about someone else complainging about the complaining....

Now, if it is so hard (which it most likely is) then they shouldn't have to worry about every little thing that is wrong, such as the height of ride x...Now should they fix it? Yes, but be glad we got a new website. They could always use the Boy Scouts of America(at least for my troop), We're working on it! I see what HTCO is saying, and I see what Stalkerchick is saying, but the way she approched the situation she complained about the complaning of the complainers. Again...

Cobra...running away!

[Diamondback96]

Yeah, I just posted it because I'm bored. (I don't have a season pass yet...)
