Ourusualbeach Posted November 26, 2015 #26 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Perhaps Royal should designate a section of both the Solarium and the pool area specifically for the chair hogs. They could even provide them with their own special chairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maryjaden Posted November 26, 2015 #27 Share Posted November 26, 2015 If he has a gold sea pass card then his conduct is acceptable. You can do anything you want if you have a gold sea pass card, its in the terms and conditions in font 2. Okay, let's not start picking on gold card cruisers. Some of us are very nice.......lol (and don't hog chairs)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark-Sheffield Posted November 26, 2015 #28 Share Posted November 26, 2015 As a Gold Sea Pass holder I cannot understand why the chair hog was mingling with the minions? Rather than annoying his fellow suite buddies in the reserved area ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare JamesEM Posted November 26, 2015 #29 Share Posted November 26, 2015 If it wasn't for the Chair Hogs I wouldn't have my great collection of books and sun glasses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't recall Indy, but Freedom is awful unless you are docked, and even then not that good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Who Cares? Posted November 26, 2015 #32 Share Posted November 26, 2015 While I don't like negative posts and complainers - I do not view the OP's post in that way at all. I got a kick out of it. I suspect the overreaction from some folks is because perhaps THEY are these type pool chair hogs that feel the entire world revolves around them? Bingo! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Who Cares? Posted November 26, 2015 #33 Share Posted November 26, 2015 happy sailing...... The more you people complain on the ship, the nicer the staff is to the non complaining, polite people that are grateful like me> Actually, the OP is NOT complaining on the ship (otherwise the chogging incident would have ended with the pool attendants taking the items and freeing the chairs). And I don't view the OP as complaining here.......I see it more as a form of live entertainment for us. Thanks OP! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sunset Glow Posted November 26, 2015 #37 Share Posted November 26, 2015 LOL no..i would never be so bored and miserable on a vacation that I had to log onto a forum and complain that while I was sitting comfortably doing nothing about... the people in front of me were hogging chairs. No ... dont see to much of me in that. Because I would never to it..... I try to keep my complaints to things that actually matter.. not something trite like a chair hog, elevator wait time, putting mayonaise on a salami sandwitch, or the guy in the bar not playing the song I wanted and ruining my vacation. ( all trivial complaints I have hear in the last 3 days) LOL happy sailing...... The more you people complain on the ship, the nicer the staff is to the non complaining, polite people that are grateful like me> I think you completely missed my poor attempt at humor. I thought it was obvious when I added the wink and smile but I guess not:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RAYSWIN Posted November 26, 2015 Author #40 Share Posted November 26, 2015 Final update... A family in the same row needed two more chairs so they untied the two towels and picked up the backpack and moved it to a lounger in the shade. I stayed to watch the "entertainment". After another 15 minutes he was back... Started looking around agitated. Spotted his backpack, picked it up and meekly went back to his gold card reserved seating at the main pool. The two men in "his" chairs were both over 6'. If ladies had taken them it could have been interesting! Very happy with the conclusion!! I guess I offended some "guilty" readers.... great entertainment!!! All is well!!! Independence is a wonderful ship with an amazing crew. Sunil in the diamond lounge is the best!!!!👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaAtlCruiser Posted November 26, 2015 #42 Share Posted November 26, 2015 I for one was entertained by your post. The ones that were offended may be the ones guilty of being chair hogs themselves and that is why they missed the humor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilotboy1985 Posted November 27, 2015 #43 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Since we are on the topic of chair hogs. I need some clarification on what a chair hog makes. If I were to put my towel on a lounger with my flip flops under neath the lounger, and then go in the pool/hot tub for 30 minutes, then Go back to my lounger and relax and the repeat the same cycle about an hour later, does this count as a chair hog?

No, that would not be a chair hog. A chair hog is someone that arrives at the pool early in the morning, lays a towel on a chair and then disappears. They come back hours later to "their" chair. I don't consider people using the pool or hot tub that have their towel on a chair in any way a chair hog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare John&LaLa Posted November 27, 2015 #46 Share Posted November 27, 2015 According to some on CC it would. Yep, I was deemed a chair hog since I got there at 7 and stayed till 1. Never really took my butt out of the chair the entire time. Apparently that is not fair to the late risers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
