KatieF Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 I follow the Instagram account: Coasterides. They post mainly super cool Kings Island stuff, and I wondered if it belonged to anyone here. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote
RollerNut Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 No, but can we get a link to the coolness? Quote
Nick_Plummer Posted December 7, 2015 Posted December 7, 2015 Wouldn't it had made more sense to direct message the account rather than making a thread here? 1 Quote

KatieF Posted December 7, 2015 Author Posted December 7, 2015 Well, I wanted to share but am on mobile and was unable to gather a link. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote
CoasterOhio Posted December 8, 2015 Posted December 8, 2015 I'm not calling anyone out, but a certain someone is a little suspicious for not contributing to this thread in anyway, even by liking. 2 Quote
themuska11 Posted December 8, 2015 Posted December 8, 2015 Maybe some self advertising? It's what i first thought. Quote
BoddaH1994 Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Whomever it is doesn't own all of the photos, clearly. The photo of woman in front of The Beast tunnel is the mother of a well-known Kings Island regular/employee named Al, and he doesn't ride rides, so the (likely) illegal POV photos most certainly aren't his. None the less, it's good stuff. Some historical photos I hadn't seen before. 1 Quote
calakapepe Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 Yeah, I don't wanna even follow them in case they ever decide to steal one of my photos.. not that I post Kings Island photos often but..It's polite to cred. photographers when possible. Quote
The Interpreter Posted December 11, 2015 Posted December 11, 2015 It's not just polite. It's the law. And using photographs without permission? Generally not lawful. Filming on rides without permission? Same, but, more importantly, potentially very hazardous. 6 Quote
thedaveyboyshow Posted January 20, 2016 Posted January 20, 2016 I follow this account on Insta, and must admit it is highly suspect. Whilst I enjoy the historical value of the photos being presented, many of them appear to be of people's personal snapshots and many questionable on ride photos, that are not only illegal to take, but also potentially endanger guests and employees of Kings Island. All that aside, I agree...not offering any photography credits bothers me almost as much as the off topic hashtags used to pander for likes and follows. 6 Quote
KatieF Posted January 26, 2016 Author Posted January 26, 2016 Oh goodness, I didn't even think about them stealing photography. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote
