Rofl please don't tell me thats a real sign.

[Student0374]

Will be next time im at Alton Towers, im going to stick it onto the current signs which says they are concerving water supplies because they are enviormently friendly!

Yeah, more like their concerving their big fat profit.

[-Soph-]

Mmm I agree.

That stupid "Conserving water supplies" thing has taken the fun out of ripsaw :l

As if they care about the environment, As you said, More like the money.

Lol at the sign and as for alton towers, i have visited quite a few times and will not be visiting any more after the apauling behavior and lies about caring for the environment i mean what the hell are they talking about they just want more in there bank accounts, gets me very angry to discuss this kind of thing so i will end this post here :@

[-Soph-]

I'm still going to go.. Hell yeah.

But its just.. Slightly annoying how they are cutting down the water.

And adam, Your photoshop skills are surprisingly good if you made that.

[Student0374]

Water?

It's gone far beyond water, and far beyond a joke.

Alton Towers are SERIOUSALLY de-creasing ride operation times..

Some rides will open late, and some will close early. (The main attractions, supprise supprise..) Hence why Alton Towers ARE concerving money!

*Skyride and Monorail: CLOSED during weekdays until 20th October.
*Flume and Rapids: Opening at 12 noon during weekdays until 20th October.
*Air, Nemesis, Rita and Oblivion: Operating at reduced capacity between 9am - 11am and 3:30pm until ride close on weekdays until 20th October.
*Submission, Enterprise and Corkie: Opening at 12 noon on weekdays during September and October.
*Bob the builder shows and Cred Street Playground: Duel operation until end of season.
*Hex: Closing 1 Hour before normal ride close during September and October.

Note: These are already in place.

Oh yeah I heard about those earlier, im annoyed because I was planning to go on a weekday.
Its silly if you ask me.
theyre acting like on weekdays they get about 100 guests, Not the thousands they do get, enough to make more than a tidy profit.

And the skyride and monorail.. Wth? I don't want to walk around all day?

[Student0374]

Reduced capacity is fine, but not opening until bleh part of the day is stupid.

And the skyride and monorail, erm excuse me Tussauds, THATS PARK TRANSPORT?

[-Soph-]

Its not as if the skyride and monorail doesn't have loads of people going on it, because it does!

i don't like the idea of the rides closing early and opening late either.

You go to a themepark to go on rides, Not to walk around all day waiting for rides to open..

Adam, I thought you loved Alton Towers?

[-Soph-]

His love has been shattered.

[Student0374]

Adam, I thought you loved Alton Towers?
I do..

Nothings perfect, and this is one of the things that is really annoying me about Alton Towers and Tussauds.

I hate to say this, but Alton Towers is very quickly loosing there spot as the UK's number one themepark -Rolls eyes-.

[-Soph-]

Bah, I'm sure it will get up to standards again though.

Maybe a fresh start in the new season?

Losing it's spot to which themepark though :p

I'll give them until next season, if all the things that are wrong have not been sorted (Yeah Tussauds know whats bugging all us enthusiasts) then I may have to reconcider my love for Alton Towers...

Thorpe Park is going to take over Alton Towers number one spot, and I think i'll turn into a Thorpe fanboy too...

HMMM?

Edit:

Tussauds Thorpe Park. (www.thorpepark.com)

Towers, you need to sort it out our your going too loose ALOT of valued customers.. Yeah, the annual pass holders pls.

[-Soph-]

Yes I could see thorpe park taking over.

Surely all of this water and ride restriction thing will all be gone by the next season?

Anyway goodnight :)

Water thing doesn't really bother me, I prefer not to get wet on Ripsaw.

Does kind of spoil the Nemesis (Best themed ride in the park may I add) theming.

The only thing on the ride restrictions that are bothering me are the park transport.. My dad who is disabled cannot walk around Alton Towers, and relys on the Skyride.

Infact, im writing a complaint it's stupid.

[Mentor]

i dont think the semi pink water trickling down nemisis is a particaly big loss? have they removed it from the long fluime/rapids? as that would kinda be a problem... espacly on the rapids lol "/

Transportaion thing is stupid, luckly im over there on a weekend... 2 more weeks :D

[Student0374]

I was going to go on the train on Friday, but I think i'll give it a miss now..

Thats what makes the ride about 10x more fun.

I didn't find it that good when I went on it the other week without the fountains on.


have they removed it from the long fluime/rapids?

They haven't gone that far..
YET.
