  1. Id argue that the rose coloured glasses version of Scooby is one that hasn't existed for at least 10 years, I'm not making excuses for that. But what I'm saying is what is there is better than it has been in 10 years, and from what I've seen it's still being improved. But if as soon as the park makes one improvement all they get back is "yeah but its not improved ENOUGH so stuff you, its still crap" there isn't much incentive for them to keep going is there. It's kind of like the person who stops buying live export meat or caged eggs but still get's screamed at by an extremest Vegan that they are still a murderer, they are kinda "well stuff you then, I care nothing for your cause". I'm not saying the park is perfect Disney, I'm saying in the last 6 months I've seen remarkable improvement so they should be encouraged not put down for this.
  2. @AlexB Man sometime you just sound like such a wanker... and sometimes is maybe being generous... I am/was one of the hugest critics of what happened with Scooby. It was a travesty that it sat open for so long as a dark warehouse, and yes the 'next gen' stuff is a joke. My point was they SPENT the money, they didn't just leave it like Dreamworld did, and are spending again because management have seen it's not up to scratch. You complaints are really quite small nit pics, two lighting issues, hardly make something a complete pile of shit. I'm not passionate about something I'm involved in, I didn't build the theming for Scooby, I'm simply saying if you cry wolf and say that something that is pretty much good is a complete pile of shit, how would anyone listen to you when you have a genuine critique. As for Wild West... dunno where you get this idea that every single staff member in the park is some kind of dumb asshat but did you perhaps think that photo was taken on one of the biggest, hottest days of the year at the park, and normally no bin is required there, but after all that mess was dumped they added one. I know no more than you do, but I don't jump to a conclusion that everyone is a lazy dumb ass. We have no proof that mess existed a day before that photo was taken, so how do we know the park didn't see it the same time we did? How do we know it wasn't cleaned up 5mins after that photo was taken? I strongly suggest you just stop visiting any Australian parks altogether because it's clear they do nothing bad aggravate you and hold you in contempt anyway.
  3. That's only a joke right... its someone messing about not an actual beyond awful no place in a theme park show?
  4. Hmm is it though? The 3 projected parts are proper shit, there is no disputing that, and hopefully they get fixed up too but otherwise the ride is pretty much the same as it was originally, sans big laser show. So if you’re saying the disco room is now ok, is the ride overall a total pile of shit? After all despite some mistakes they spent millions to rebuilt all the theming back to how it was albeit safer. Where as DW simply demolished log ride theming, and now look to close it all together. Which one is really showing ‘contempt for guests’? And I’m not sure how the park seeing a problem (who cares if it’s on Parkz or reported by a cleaner who found that mess at the end of the day) with rubbish and adding more bins can be turned into a BAD thing?
  5. If there’s gonna be a nice themed outlet could we perhaps not have the ghastly generic coke fridge?
  6. The barriers and tape are for a few busy days. there has always been an outdoor queue. Enthusiasts don’t know what they don’t know. But that doesn’t mean their viewpoint should be “the park are lazy assholes”. As for debates about fire exit safety. Let’s just assume that QFES know what they’re doing more than some enthusiasts, regardless of how long their list of knowledge credentials is.
  7. Or perhaps you have no idea what your talking about and maybe QFS re assessed the building after the park down the road killed 4 people and reduced the capacity of the queue area to half? Just perhaps. Or maybe it’s as you’re right and the park is just too lazy to move a table...
  8. I don’t understand what it actually is you are wanting them to do here?
  9. But for a 20 million investment they ultimately ended up with a worse attraction than it replaced which fatal story/theming flaws, less capacity and not as family friendly. So I say it’s not worth the money. You could plonk that same ride on an open pad and it would be just as good.
  10. I would say they bought the ride prior to changes in requirements for safety systems and now have to try and go through a whole bunch of hoops to bring up the ride they’ve brought to meet the new requirements.
  11. Omg that’s funny. Do we then assume accesso have only sold two of these?
  12. Are we forgetting the previous ride which was over a year late?
  13. No discount but it means you don’t have to wait the usual 3 off years for a production slot. Dreamworld definitely jumped on someone else’s misfortune with this one. You can’t get a coaster in 12 months normally. Great move by them.
  14. Let’s be honest here. NO ONE is Goggling “Village Themeparks” anything 😜
  15. Nor have they posted or advertised telling everyone to go and get the app and use it. Just because a couple eager enthusiasts went and grabbed a copy of the app doesn’t mean they’ve botched anything.
  16. Do you mean the last little drop which has the large projection screen? I agree a better effect to mask the drop should be put back here. The old lush tree theming was good in here and maybe something could be done along those lines.
  17. Yeah I read that chart about like 3 more times to see where I’ve missed it. It definitely says 5pm in every box.
  18. I’ll never understand the open early rather than close later thing.
  19. Well there is no law against having a vivid fantasy imagination
  20. Wow 🤦‍♂️ it’s a smoke machine powered by a mixture of glycol and water. Fire restrictions don’t affect it.
  21. Yes, they will. And this is the point option B is not actually an option. They won’t replace it. They will simply shutter it.
