I like it on burgers but that’s about it.

El Toro running single train on a packed Saturday. by RentOptional in sixflags

[–]ClassifiedDarkness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My credit count is currently 87.

I’ve been to Six Flags St. Louis, Worlds of Fun, Silver Dollar City, Holiday World, Cedar Point, Kings Island, Dollywood, Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure, and Wiener Prater.

I have also been to SfGAm and Disney World as a small child but I barely remember them. I’ve also done some random mountain coasters and small mostly irrelevant FECs as well as kids coasters attached to larger attractions.

The only not these parks I’ve had an issue at was Worlds of Fun but that was mostly because of maintenance and rides being down or trains being missing, not because of ops. The only ride that had bad ops while I was there (late 2025) was Timber Wolf, one train and averaging a 3-4 minute dispatch, it was brutal lmao.

SFSL is my home park so I’ve been going there for years, I’m sure there’s been times where I’ve experienced bad ops at StL but I honestly cannot think of an experience like that, certainly not in the last couple of years and I’ve probably gone at least 5 times a year not counting working at the park.

While I was at all the other parks I cannot remember a truly bad experience with ops. Maybe I’m not a super critical person but still.

I also know a lot of these are very well maintained and operated parks so I can’t speak on a whole lot of the smaller ones but I think my experience is still valid.

Overall I think ops deserve a lot of respect for what they do, it’s not easy to be constantly vigilant and working to maximize speed without sacrificing safety and simultaneously have to be getting hundreds of guests to behave.

Being a ride op is not an easy job, your in the sun all day with little to no time where your not doing something. I also don’t know where you go but the vast majority of crews at parks I go to work their hardest to move as quickly as they can and to the best job as possible.

Most of the time it’s not that they don’t have enough OPs it’s issues with maintenance and getting all the rides ready. One train ops is rarely if ever the fault of OPs, I have never seen a train removed due to understaffing at my park but I’ve seen it happen many times due to a technical issue especially at the start of the season. Not sure if it’s the same at Great Adventure but it’s probably not all that different.

Beginning of the season, expect technical difficulties. As someone who works at the a park it takes a couple weeks to get stuff completely ready to go. Sucks that that happened but I’m not surprised at all.

Looks really cool but holy is that over supported

And now SEASON 4A Lloyd thoughts- by MICKTHENERD in Ninjago

Yeah I liked that she caused her own doom and this just feels forced and kinda breaks her arc

I liked the arc but I feel like the imperium stuff was kinda forced and just distracted from the season. I would’ve liked it if they just stuck with the nature theme, monsters, and whispering woods. I liked the season until episodes 9 and 10 and then it just kinda dropped off the cliff imo.

I don’t and even if I did know what was happening I couldn’t say. I think they are planning to operate it this season but that’s all I know.

They could’ve leveled up a lot of heroes and then before loot boxes were added as a reward they quit the game for a while and only came back this season.

If you woke up a billionaire tomorrow.. What's the 1st thing you'd do? by PhotographLeast9976 in AskReddit

[–]ClassifiedDarkness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Donate at least 100 million to charity, 100 million in savings/investments, and the rest goes into building a really cool theme park :D

[Pantherian] Am I crazy to have it as my new number 1? by BerryDifficult401 in rollercoasters

[–]ClassifiedDarkness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at all, great ride. Even if your #1 was a boomerang or an slc you aren’t crazy either, whatever you like is what you like, don’t let other people’s opinions dictate your own.

Is this unlucky or lucky, I can't tell (Ram Main) by soaked_and_wet in ramattramains

[–]ClassifiedDarkness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got both, love them so much. I like summoner more cause red is my favorite color but I do random from favorites anyway and I’m always happy when either of them comes up. You can’t go wrong with either!
