I would not be against them getting rid of Rita replacing it with a family are couple of Flats maybe a water ride. Just like it was before
 
See I get why people are not the biggest fan of Rita, considering what could be in it's plot of land, but honestly I'd miss it once its gone, it's my favourite ride there after reborn and wicker man.

People complain that the layout does nothing, but the sharp turns are equally as intense as nemesis (especially the turn over th13teen's entrance), and it provides great airtime as well on about 3 occasions, and it really is not that rough either. Albeit I'm 5'11, but even as a kid, I never had any issues with the restraints at all.

I feel like everything people complain about Rita, they turn a blind eye with other rides. Rough? Smiler is rougher. Short? Oblivion and Stealth are shorter.
 
Ideally the park should replace Rita in a similar fashion to Liseberg did with Helix and Kanonen. Build a new multi-launch an then remove Rita a few seasons later, that way they can open up Dark Forest with more supporting attractions and make the area a lot nicer to spend time and dwell in. If they removed Rita first, a lot of the public will be upset because the park will lack a launch coaster.

There’s nothing to indicate at the moment that the Accelerators sticking around are getting substantially more expensive to operate and it seems Rita’s issues this season just seems like normal extended downtime. The Stratas were only ripped out because they were exceptional in scale, something which Rita certainly isn’t.
 
Ever since Rita was hastily added to Ug Land the area has been horrendous. Its been discussed to death but I’ll never know what they were thinking adding a modern drag race to a prehistoric land. Its such a shame Ug Land was ruined and didnt last very long; I genuinely thought it was a really well done and fun area.

Dark Forest is one of the worst conceived theme park areas I can think of. To be honest, I struggle to understand how they even let it get past concept stage given even the name is basically just a variant of ‘Gloomy Wood’… it is one of, if not the laziest ideas they have ever put together.

And then given the fact over the years its been bodged into scaffolding and wooden fence post land, it is a total mess.

Rita has had its time, it does nothing exciting other than the launch and even that is kind of underwhelming now given there are better experiences to be had these days. Flatten the whole area and start again!
