JLMoran Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I'm definitely closest to The Ghost, although I do interact at least a little with the crew when I get the chance. Never qualified for The Newbie, I learned more than enough here to not really be at that level he described!

JohnK6404 Posted May 1, 2020 Report Share Posted May 1, 2020 I guess both my wife and I are hybrids of the Ghost/Regular/Vlogger... "Ghost" is too extreme... maybe somewhere in between. We are friendly, appreciative, respectful, and interact with the crew and have a good time, but we do not go out of our way to interact or distract the crew. Not quite a "Regular", and you certainly would not want me to take over as Captain, but I am a big researcher before I go on any cruise! I like to know as much as I can before I step foot on the ship so I can relax. We learn so much here on this blog, on Facebook and on YouTube. I joke with my wife that by the time we board the ship we already know the layout and technical specs by heart! Not a "Vlogger", but an aspiring blogger for our forum/blog, LOL... love to share our experiences with everyone and truly enjoy reading and learning from others!

RCIfan1912 Posted May 2, 2020 Report Share Posted May 2, 2020 I'm more of a ghost I guess. I don't want to make any scenes, or annoy anyone, especially crew. We do the things we like to do, we realize there thousands of other people on this ship and we are no more special than anyone else. We do enjoy talking to the crew a little bit but they are busy and we don't want to be a pain to then. We are always pleasant to the crew because they are incredible people for the most part. Now as far as other passengers go, well that is a totally different story. 99.5 are just fine but there are those few, those dam few that are A-holes and think the ship belongs to them and the crew are their slaves. I explain it like this, there is usually 2-3 times on a cruise I want to turn around knock a passenger out for mistreating a crew member. Boy that steams me!

Neaxan Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 Guess I'm a mix of Ghost and Go-Getter. To be fair, crew on German cruise lines just isn't very chatty. Good morning/day etc. usually sums up the conversation so being on a Royal cruise was a steep learning curve. Go-Getter could be anyone, FOMO is a real thing On Symphony I had a spreadsheet to make sure we went to each restaurant and bar at least once. I think we only missed Jazz on 4.

ellcee Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 More of a ghost but Cafe Promenade and pool servers learn my name VERY quickly on every cruise I've been on and there are always a couple who seem to tend to me. I mostly love it but the introvert in me dies a little that I can't hide and the other side of me loves the attention. (I'm an extroverted introvert).

Ampurp85 Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 I am definitely a ghost, I like to be left alone.....but I have been rocking purple hair for about 4 years so i tend to stand out a bit. JLMoran 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
