Never going there again!

Shame I've heard nothing but complaints and borderline disturbing stories about how poor Indiana Beach is, because I've yet to go and at least they have Cornball...and it's so far out of the way, even if I go to HW looks like it's a 4 hour drive from there, a 4 hour drive from CP. No convenient way to ever go out there. I'd love to ride cornball and just knock the park off to do so and never go back but I never see myself going. Seems it'd be a huge drive just to ride one coaster as many times as I possibly can and I'm not that much of a cred whore!


I do have to admit, SF:NE was quite underwhelming, crappy and really Bizarro was the only reason worth going. That said, it's just one ride, I probably would not go back there if it wasn't for WC now. But yeah, it's like Great Adventure, there are the 2 or 3 (though I can easily live without KK now) coasters that lure you, and anything else done is out of necessity of being there.
 
I haven't been to Adventureland since I worked there in 2008 and I don't think I'll go back again unless they get something REALLY amazing. I've seen how badly managed it is & I know from experience how little they train their rides staff. It's also way overpriced. Better to make the three hour drive to Worlds of Fun.

Oakwood and Lightwater Valley. Didn't really enjoy the majority of the rides there. Drayton Manor's a bit of a dump too, but I'd make the effort if they got a cred.

Lol ok £20 pre-booked tickets swayed me and I'm off tomorrow. 2 coasters since I last visisted too, that's my excuse.
 
Not saying I would never go there again cos I'm sure I will be, but pleasure beach is boring me I have been there that many times, plus EVERY single time I come home from there I have a headache
 
Wild Mouse just never gets boring though at BPB.
And with the new Wetherspoons next to The Beach,
you can end up with a first class headache for less than a tenner.
Three bars over three floors,
they just need to convert the glass lift into a drop ride!
 
La Ronde. Probably the most nastiest and most abandoned SixFlags. It has 1 decent ride (which made it on to my favorites tbh) but because the park's status, I don't see a return any time soon.

Fantasy Island is a dump...... They always close their two main coasters and even the beast.


Seconded, if it counts as a proper park.

I don't even have the Jubilee Odysssey/Odyssey cred.

(I assumed you were talking about the UK one, if not then I'd like to add it to the list!)
 
There are so many dumps out there that to even think about listing them all is too burdenous.

However, I would go back to any park with a new cred - even Chessington.
 
This is a very easy one for me: Sucks Flags Tragic Mountain!

Had I not had a few spites (expected at such a massive park) and had they not just built a gorgeous-looking RMC I would not set foot in this park again. Stupid high admission price, the park is hideous, the rides except for Full Throttle, Ninja, Untwisted Colossus (RIP), and maybe Riddler and X2 were appalling, the food was disgusting and overpriced, the service and operations were ridiculous, and the clientele that I got to share the park with was unbearable. They have a lot of credits but it stops there, if you go to this park you have to work for your credits. I didn't even have fun that day. I couldn't even get a free cup of water without spitting it out because it tasted like pool water.

This park is like an enthusiast hazing ritual. It's horrible, it has a lot of creds, and everybody should be put through it to be considered a true enthusiast. :p

Off topic I know but I actually went to the new Wetherspoons last week and was really impressed by it, espeically when we bumped into the old Bar manager of my local working there =), really really nice Burgers but a little pricey for a weatherspoons
 
After tomorrow, I'll never go back to Six Flags Over Georgia. Disgusting clientele and gross park. They'd have to get an RMC for me to ever think of stepping foot in there again.

Magic Mountain is amazing what's wrong with you XD

For me it'd probably be Heide Park, it's just too much money for such a bland place. Although I'd obvs go back if they got another cred.
 
I can understand not enjoying SFMM if you only go for one day because there are SO many coasters, which would be stressful to try and cram in. You would really need at least two days (or maybe even three or four <3) to enjoy yourself properly.

There are quite a few substantial parks I wouldn't revisit (unless they get a decent new cred):

Legoland Windsor - I still haven't got the Dragon's Apprentice cred but can't be arsed because I hate the place.
Bon Bon Land
Walibi Belgium
Legoland Billund - to be fair it's a nice park, but I don't crave to go back there at all.
Lightwater Valley
Chessington - If they don't get any decent creds in say the next 5-10 years though, I would probably revisit.

Most American parks I wasn't fussed on have gotten new coasters since my last visit, so I would go back to them.

There are probably a couple more, but that's it for now.
 
After me recent US trip my "worst park" pick goes to Kentucky Kingdom.

They have two great coasters but the operations and staff is the worst I have ever encountered. Coaster ops were glacierous and while it was a slow weekday in the park Lightning Run had a 40 minute line. In the restaurants the offered craft beer on the overhead menu but not one employee was knowing about it and they got quite irritating and implolite when I pointed it out on their menu - than further on the cashier needed over 10 minutes to service 5 people - so all food was cold. Overall most staff looked bored and even like they were forced to work there.

No, thank you - never again!
