do you talk like everyone should know you on here?

Rules? There are rules to how we discuss? I do like to talk about Sally now and then because she is a babe. But I don't like to use our real names because I like to go commando now and then and people who know tend to stare.

 

It's complicated.:o

Also disrupting to the Community is Thread hijacking which is the act of trying to steer a web forum discussion thread off topic by discussing a subject entirely unrelated to the original topic...."

 

Op never said a word about Thread Hijacking -- just sayin. :D

 

I agree that forum rules should be followed. I just don't think what the OP asks about should be considered a disruption to the community. But then, like some others, I don't understand the issue, so could be missing something I suppose.

Because:

 

Making your way in the world today takes everything you've got.



Taking a break from all your worries, sure would help a lot.

Wouldn't you like to get away?

 

Sometimes you want to go

Where everybody knows your name,

and they're always glad you came.

You wanna be where you can see,

our troubles are all the same

You wanna be where everybody knows

Your name.

 

:D:D

If you post A LOT maybe people might start to learn your names.

 

I don't get those who tell people on here to say hello to a certain crew/staff member weeks later. These crew/staff are dealing with hundreds of new people per sailing. You really had to have made a big impression to be remembered 2-3+ weeks later just by name alone.

luckyinpa, I think many do it to be courteous. It's always a nice way to start things out IMHO. I do the same on e-mails while some don't.

 

Some of us have actually meant many people from CC through our travels.

 

Not a high percentage since CC population is so big but I am sure I have met a couple of thousand people from CC over the years.

Indeed, yes, Keith . I have had the pleasure of meeting a number of CC posters on various ships through the years. I met one lovvely couple frrom Boston (my home) with whom I am still in touch. We spoke on the phone last week.

 

I have met ships' officers because they recognized from my posts enough informatiion they guessed my name on the manifestt when t I had posted I was sailing their ship on a given d ate. :)and introduced themselves. I have always treasured those meetings. :)

I've been on CC so long, that I've met a number of CC'ers.

I do sometimes get the feeling that some posters seem to be posting simply for the benefit of their friends on the site, but I also respect that there is a core group of long time members who have put in the time to make this site what it is, and if they feel like they can run the place, then who am I to stop them!
