No, what you do is employ rides staff with backbone to say 'no you go where you're put' not, 'yeah you can wait'.Simple.

Also called James, however a different James.First names should be allowed but going about saying OMG THE BLONDE ONE ON NEMESIS INFERNO etc.

That's disgusting, why can't people have privacy nowadays?

Until you provide a proper picture with your new 'on brand' name badge logo, you cannot tell anyone here what to do!

Gate figures have been a lot lower at peak but spread out instead of silly 12-13k peaks.

You didn't explain it, seeing as the whole storm in a teacup thing with her happened as it was humour, I presumed you meant it humorous. Explain yourself properly in future, and stop being so full of it.

No, you're posting stuff that should, in essence be kept away from mainstream humour. You are one of the people killing the type of humour. Stop it.

Why not just keep it as a little gem to yourself and not make that sort of humour mainstream? My posts are thought out and a damned good response to a lot of the retarded posts that appear daily here!And yeah but I'm still here posting this now aren't I? :S

You're not cool, you're not stylish, just because you find stuff on the internet and post it elsewhere in attempt to get some cheap laughs.Man up, grow a pair and stop being such an irritation to the forum.

HELL YEAH I SAW SOMETHING FUNNY ON THE INTERNET AND I'LL GO POST IT ABOUT EVERYWHERE I KNOW COS I'LL BE SO FUNNY LOLOLOLTosser.

Well the ride is back to normal loading (batching as trains appear) with 5 train operation, and the fans aren't open at the moment.

Just in response to this, if you do ever see anyone jumping the queue in any way shape or form at a Merlin park - regardless of weather they have been to the toilet, or whatever, if that person passes you in that queue line without you saying they can it is classed as queue jumping. Do not put yourself in danger and make rude comments, or get in their way, if they are stupid enough to do it they may be stupid enough to get violent. Get a good description of them - hair colour, race, gender, top half clothing, bottom half clothing - and tell the ride attendant (has to be someone standing on that platform, not someone in a shop etc) and if they don't care, ask to see their manager. Don't be angry or shout at the staff member as if it their fault, calmly approach them as quickly as you can and tell them that the group has queue jumped, and they are obliged to call Security or their Manager to be dealt with. When the Manager or Team Leader arrives they can be identified by a Light Blue T-Shirt or Hand Held Radio, and if you see them before asking for one, tell them as they are in a position of authority for a reason!) . Chessington I have seen from a guest point of view are **** hot on stopping queue jumping, TP a little less. And remember you are helping a lot of people out by doing this, ride hosts do really appreciate getting miscreants dealt with. This goes for everything in between queue jumping and violence in a queue, smoking, abuse, damage of property etc.As ever, if you have a genuine issue with the way it is handled (not like 'omfg Security spoke to him and didn't do anything' - Security have to take situations like this seriously), talk to Guest Services and ask to see a relevant manager from that department.And remember, stay calm, don't be the hero (leave it to the professionals) be polite and understanding to staff members, they're only doing their job!

Grab him by the balls and slam him against a wall with the force of a thousand suns.What my rant is? People don't have manners anymore. When was the last time you said thank you or please to someone?

WHY THE **** IS THAT BOY SITTING ON THAT LAPBAR WITH THE RIDE GOING ROUND?

No rides in general down, queues about 20-30 mins falling down to 5 after about 3pm, was how it went last week.

Just to point out the maybe obvious - whoever you are making that video, you have run a very easy risk and still are of being banned from every Merlin park and having your AP revoked from you.Just a heads up.

Raoul Moat's wanted level has risen to 3 stars!

I'm sorry Gemma but you come across as such a whiny and ignorant narrow minded girl.You've just posted a ****ing ****storm of posts ranting and raving about how **** 'xyz' is, yet you come across agreeing with Mark - who has a totally valid point which highlights your ignorance of others plight - even though it's pointing out how silly this ranting topic is.That's my rant for the day.

Did you clean it up afterwards K?

I started at McDonalds a week after my last exam when I was 15, by the time I was 16 I had worked my way up to floor manager by working so incredibly hard.Age means nothing, ability means everything.

Mack are the best manufacturer by an absolute mile, come on Mack..

Dan is right - when the fans are opened yes it does ruin the whole ride, there are a lot but it takes the temperature down.Genuine pity they are in such ill thought out areas of the ride!

Can we use to laymans terms please, people won't in general understand the concept of a 'green card'; and besides rides don't get green carded anymore, it's a board!
