Thorpe~Rocks Posted March 11, 2011 Report Share Posted March 11, 2011 I've seen many example of bad guests at Thorpe Park, but who do you hate/dislike the most? Examples could be chavs, queue jumpers, queue smokers, ect. Any good storys would be fun to read Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 alexander Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 Simply the 14-16 year old teens, they always seem to look like they own the park. With there swearing and pushy attitude.thank god I'm 17 then! Glad I'm not part of that stereotype Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 th13teen Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 Just before you think I am stereotyping I am not because I am 15 years old, I hate teenagers in general. It back me up my views because I just got back from a trip from thorpe park and chessington today! Full of annoying school kids! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 JoshC. Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 So, you hate yourself? I'm sorry, but I'm sick of this culture that think every teenager in the planet are knife-welding yobs who swear, drink and smoke continuously. If you add to that way of thinking, you are just as bad as the minority of these yobs and chavs in my eyes... Gggggggg 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Fred Posted June 30, 2011 Report Share Posted June 30, 2011 I like the getting angry at thorpe thing. Thing is, if they get solid evidence of queuejumping (accurate descriptions, more than one person/group pointing them out... people *actually* telling the hosts about it), then something will be done about it.Other than that, not much they can do.Oh, I also hate others munching the face off others. Unless I'm the one doing it. I'm such a hippogriff. Laelda_95 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full of annoying school kids!What did you expect on a day when most schools were shut due to strikes?And you are stereotyping...

0 JamieL Posted July 30, 2011 Report Share Posted July 30, 2011 (edited) This post will probably be taken as offensive by someone but hey...It does seem to be the large MAJORITY of the time, people who can't speak English (or a limited form) who push in front and queue jump...I visited the park on Thursday and had a run in with an Asian Family... We were in the queue waiting to buy tickets and they thought they could push in, simply because they had a push chair...I tried to explain that everyone has to wait and they said to me "Stop being racist"... When I had said NOTHING about their race and it had nothing to do with it until they made this comment.The woman continued to push past and actually ran into me and my friend with this push chair...On the same visit I had the same problem with Limited-English Speaking people on Tidal Wave, Colossus and Nemesis... Because I seem to be the only person that'll tell people not to queue jump they instantly pull out the race card...For goodness sake, this issue is making me racist!!!!- Rant Over - Edited August 17, 2011 by IanNem spelling Luke_A 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Fred Posted July 31, 2011 Report Share Posted July 31, 2011 I visited the park on Thursday and had a run in with an Asian Family...This. It's not racism, I think its just their culture really. Neither do they listen to instructions, and it's only usually the dads who will listen to authority, noone else will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Mr.man Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 When schools are there, they make the queues so much longer and when they are all wearing the same thing its cringey, but when I go on a school trip like that its okay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 coastercameron98 Posted September 2, 2013 Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 People who always think they know everything about the park and other parks and think they can prove you wrong when in fact they'd come up with some cocky answer to make you sound stupid for correcting them.

0 JoshC. Posted February 23, 2014 Report Share Posted February 23, 2014 Hear hear. Nothing annoys me more than a group of teenage enthusiasts swanning around any given park, acting as if they are better than the general public, looking down their snooty noses at anyone - especially the working class guests, and calling them "chavs" or pikeys. Of course, this is the few spoiling it for the many. From what I've seen, the majority of enthusiasts (teenager or not) are usually fine, and have a great deal of respect for the parks. There are the few who feels they have the right to break park rules (cameras on rides without permission, vandalism, be rude to people, etc.), but it is just the few.

I feel like queueline rules have become rather lax these last few years, I've only seen people being told to get off of the fences in the Vortex queue once or twice whilst I've witnessed a whole load

"I'm going to go online and have a go at people generalising entire groups of people by generalising an entire group of people myself!" Fantastic moral victory that.
