Disneyland visitors have urged other guests to be mindful of their behaviour while visiting the park, revealing how breaking certain unwritten rules is 'spoiling the experience for everyone'.
Anyone who's visited a theme park in the last couple of years will be well aware of the fact that it can be a pretty stressful situation.
From spending hours queuing for popular rides in pouring rain or blistering sunshine to spending a fortune on overpriced food and making sure you're not in violation of theme park dress codes, there's certainly a lot more to it than just enjoying the rides.
However, there's certain things we can collectively do to ensure that our day, and the visits of everyone around us, go much smoother... which is apparently something that not everyone has gotten the memo about.

In a recent opinion piece for the SFGATE, writer Katie Dowd took umbrage with the number of people who feel the need to shout their way around Disney parks, at the detriment of others.
"No one comes to Disneyland with a dream of hearing random strangers recite voice-overs," she wrote, adding that not everyone will have heard the monologues before and don't need it spoiling by the person next to them.
The behaviour is perhaps something which is unique to Disneyland, with numerous rides having the USP of being an immersive experience which aims to make you feel like you're in Pirates of the Caribbean or Frozen.
Which will, of course, be something that is ruined by someone having a catch-up in the car behind you or spending the whole time screaming obnoxiously loud.

Dowd isn't the only person to have complained about the rise in selfish guests walking through the gates of Disneyland parks either, with numerous Reddit threads dedicated to discussing the unspoken rules and etiquette of the park.

"STOP TALKING IN PIRATES," wrote one visitor in a thread on the subject, adding: "I’m not interested in hearing about your next vacations coming up. I’m trying to get into the ambiance."
Having a natter about your life in the Pirates of the Caribbean ride appears to be a transgression made by many visitors, with a second person adding: "There was woman behind us on Pirates last night filming at full screen brightness. I don't think I've gotten a Pirates boat in the last 2 years that hasn't been ruined by somebody talking the whole time or filming."
Other common faux pas included: reciting ride monologues word-for-word while other people are trying to listen, abruptly stopping in the middle of walkways and excessive filming/live-streaming were also high on peoples' lists.

Although I'd argue the above are applicable to daily life and not just Disney theme parks.
