I dont like seeing parks remove negative comments, it looks a LOT better if the park actually respond to them.

And that last complaint you posted coolskin, what a joke, PWH is crap because a cash register and ORP's weren't working....?

Though it does appear that the lack of discount vouchers is hurting them, as the price seems to be the most common complaint.

The lack of updates is a worry as last season we had them near enough daily. I guess its not concidered good business practace to say "this is how crap we are today" which is basically the situation when you have at least 2 of your biggest rides out of action.

They wouldn't need to put it like that though, just a simple message like "Due to circumstances beyond our control, Enigma and Tude Traveller will be unavailable until further notice, maintanance issues etc, too busy over winter etc.".

To be fair, the users that comment on Youtube are about as intelligent as a fishcake.

However.... rides do break down, there is nothing we can do about it. Last June we got stuck on Collossus' lift for nearly an hour in heavy rain, it wasn't fun, but I survived, got over it, and enjoyed my day.

Due to the actual chances of a ride breaking whilst you are on it, then you have to be quite lucky to get stuck on one. I've never got stuck on a ride, unless I was hanging upside down then I wouldn't actually mind it. :/

Anyhoo, that's beside the point. As for the lack of updates from the park; I think it tarnishes their image more by not informing potential guests of ride closures. I'd be pretty peeved personally. I only know the rides are down at the moment due to being on here!

yea ive got stuck on the coaster at gypb, the pilock driving breaked too much and we just came to a stop at the top, also been on snakje in the grass where it got to the top of the lift hill then decided to go backwards all the way back down lol

I use to open the bar on the rattlesnake, made the drop more fun.

^ There isn't electricity running through the track on SITG... What makes you think there is?

Oh right, I see.

They couldn't get sued if that happens anyway. If you walked in a road and got hit by a car, you couldn't sue them for it as it was your fault.

I can't see why pleasurewoodhills wouldn't let people on ride purely by how they look!

Then we get into the situation that Thorpe Park placed themselves in last week...

Just because a group of young people walk up to a ride does not mean they should not be allowed on the ride. It's unfair to the majority if a small minority have done something bad.

Its been the situation since i worked at PWH! Its fair enough as far as i'm concerned, why the fudge would groups of teens want to go on Fairytail?

Visited today and have to say very disappointed ticket price is really high for what you have...no new attractions as the jolly roger is basically renamed as it was the mega drop. Nothing new waste of money and having to pay 3quid each for 2 of the attractions....waste of money well and truly disappointed

Posted 40 minutes ago on their fb page, plus a newer pic of the ponies as it was grand national yesterday

I know you shouldn't judge everyone by the few, but its better to prevent potential damage to rides and/or distress to other guests (through the bad behaviour) by restricting 'teens' on such rides.

When i worked at PWH Peter Hadden had to pay several thousands of pounds to repair what was the Undersea Adventure ride after a group of teens had got out of their boat and caused loads of damage.

 Undersea adventure ride ?

That is actually hilarious. No wonder we Brits have the reputation of being moaners when there are idiots like that about. No new attractions?! I wouldn't blame PWH for deleting that comment.

What a moron.
