Bothofus Posted September 25, 2016 #26 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Just off the Allure this morning, from The President's Cruise (which was AWESOME). Michael Bayley stated that they definitely monitor Cruise Critic. He said they love us, they hate us, but in all seriousness that the boards here are constantly monitored.

laginog Posted September 30, 2016 #27 Share Posted September 30, 2016 We just got off the Freedom 9/11 sailing. While onboard, I commented that we had a room steward that had just started on the ship. We were in the Royal Family Suite. He wasn't even giving us the basics that we asked for, like ice, emptying fridge, a light blanket, replacement shampoo. I "complained" on here and at 9:30 that night, he came in with a bucket of ice, shampoo bottles & a blanket. So.....either somebody at RCCL is watching or a passenger passed it along.

Ocean Dancer Posted September 30, 2016 #28 Share Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) There is a current very active thread going on now over at the Celebrity boards. Celebrity's official posters light was on all day yesterday meaning he/she was " just" on CC, but by the content of the thread, it was being monitored. I have not been on Celebrity's boards today to know if the thread has been closed or removed. It was about Celebrity's new ad playing only after the debates on ABC and CNN. The ad in my opinion was anti Trump about breaking down walls and traveling the world. Most disagree, but since it is only being shown after the debates on pro Hillary channels, many think it is very biased. It is a brilliant move in my opinion which ever side of the wall you are on. Royal is Celebrity's parent co. Edited September 30, 2016 by Ocean Dancer edited to add the thread is still active Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted September 30, 2016 #29 Share Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) Having said that, I am wondering if RCCL posts on these boards. Have they taken a hands off approach to posting? Has anyone seen an RCCL respond in these forums? They have one official account they post from, but I've had a couple of crew members mention that Corporate sees what goes on here. The last, back in 2014 Elvis Pinto who was Activities Director on Jewel told us, corporate lets him know when his name gets mentioned. I was sure to post in my review what a good job he did with our Meet and Mingle. Now, I believe he has, or is about to take over as Cruise Director on Empress. He should make a good cruise director. I can see us doing one of those cruise in the future. Edited September 30, 2016 by BillOh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted September 30, 2016 #30 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I have been told by more than one crew member if someone posts a review and names names, management knows about it and will even put a print out in the crew member's file. I've heard similar things, but not specifically about a crew member's file. I hope so, I remember I forgot to fill out my WOW card for Anna from Spain who worked at the Next Cruise Desk on Freedom in 2015. We had a visit from the upgrade fairy which was nice, but it caused us all kinds of annoyances, she took care of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BillOh Posted September 30, 2016 #31 Share Posted September 30, 2016 And if they read these board, it's probably for a good laugh. Not for any research purpose. But, I'm sure you guys will discredit this post anyway. Oh well.... but, believe what makes you feel good. Sent from my iPad using Forums Given, the pure speculation flying in the face of other evidence and the condescending done, , its hard not to discredit this post.

CoachT Posted September 30, 2016 #32 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Royal Caribbean not online monitors cruise critic, but in the past has paid people to post favorably about it. It was all over the news years ago and I am almost positive it still happens! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was all over the news years ago and I am almost positive it still happens! Was it about 5 years ago an official group of "Royal Champions" was created here and it was so badly received it went away quick? My memory is really fuzzy with that one.

Rare shipshape sam Posted September 30, 2016 #35 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Can't compete with your background. However, FB, LinkedIn, instagram etc. have millions of active profiled members. So that data pool would be more reliable as the group is a larger representation of the markets for which the data needs to be collected for. But, i respect your expertise. Can I use your background to help me in my football pool? I'm in45th place out of 48 participants. I really need some data to help me[emoji857] Sent from my iPad using Forums Don't we all.

laginog Posted September 30, 2016 #37 Share Posted September 30, 2016 I didn't mention names on here but,....there are only 4 royal family suites, and somebody asked me which deck we were on. That narrows it down fairly well. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juksing Posted September 30, 2016 #38 Share Posted September 30, 2016 The last couple cruise critic mingles I have attended the CD always makes a joke of how much they like meeting the CC members especially as so many of us are such "good writers".
