Moby Dick Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 DISCUSSION I fully understand that Royalcaribbeanblog.com and Royal Caribbean aren't connected. However, I also understand that @Matt has a large following in several venues, to include this one. Therefore, I believe that Royal Caribbean monitors this site and others associated with @Matt. Doesn't it make sense that we post all the good and all the bad about Royal Caribbean here for the Executives of Royal, via their lackeys or themselves, to make future decisions base upon the temperature of the sailing public/Royal's loyal cruisers here and elsewhere that @Matt has a following? I'd like to ask @Matt if he has any indication or as fact that Royal does monitor this site and does communicate with him as to some of the comments made here and his feelings about them. I'm only asking because it would be nice to know that any positive comments, as well as the negative comments about Royal aren't being done in vain, except for being informative within this relatively small group.

smokeybandit Posted June 16, 2022 Report Share Posted June 16, 2022 I'd be shocked if RC didn't have someone monitoring this forum and cruise critic any of the major cruise fan sites/social media accounts wordell1, Moby Dick and JasonOasis 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I would hope that the people that could possibly be monitoring this site have much more intelligence than to get suckered in to the malcontent troll comments. But, I could be wrong!

tonyfsu21 Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 Adding to the conspiracy, it’s possible @Matt is an undercover agent for Royal Caribbean planting information on his blog to manipulate the cruising industrial complex…… SpeedNoodles, VirtKitty, RWDW1204 and 4 others 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pure troll posts are obvious. First post ever, usually a full name - but not one that sounds real, rambling post which sounds like they barely speak English.

I have a lot to say! I love cruising. I love to talk about cruising. I like discussions with most people. This is a form of entertainment and filling in the time for me. Do, I like to debate? That's a big YES. This whole thing keeps this old man's mind working. Is there a problem? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Believe it or not, I'm in and out and in and out a lot during the day. I'm also in a few other sites (mostly political stuff). I also try to keep this 70 year old body in shape by walking/running about 3.5 miles a day. On the day I don't walk/run, I do lawn/garden care of my 1 acer lot surrounding my home and my home is only about 1,400 square feet so its a lot of lawn and fencing to take care of by hand. I only have 3 trees on the property, the rest is grass. I type a lot and love it. DJI_0107.MP4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted June 17, 2022 Report Share Posted June 17, 2022 I have no reason to believe one way or the other anyone from HQ reads these boards. I'm well aware they read the main site articles fairly often. But that's the extent of what I know. Moby Dick and VirtKitty 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
