Folks: I avoided posting the Charter yesterday due to all the info being posted about the tragic accident on the QM2.

Let me make it plain so that you won’t "loose allot" anymore. You posted the Charter and included your ad/sig line for no other reason that to expose your business to an international market of known cruisers who you want to sell cruises, etc to. I’ll give you a second and let that sink in. You used the Charter posting as your excuse to advertise your business. The Charter prohibits advertising. I’ll give you a minute and let that sink in. You have now established yourself as the Ultimate RTC Hypocrite Among TA’s. I’ll give you a life and let that sink in.

Response:

Hey Queenie: Maybe you should do some research before you insert BOTH feet into your mouth. . Seacruise is the first Cruise Chat Channel that was started in 1996. We are a non profit group that accepts no advertising or no money from Travel Agents. All moneys are free will donations from those on Seacruise. Seacruise agreed to keep the Charter and Post the Charter several years ago. As part of the Charter there is suppose to be a FTP site for reviews. Since FTP sites are pretty much a thing of the past http://seacruisereviews was born.     As a matter of clarification SeacruiseReviews (Steve) also posts Group Cruises submitted to him as one post. You see there was a problem with Spam on RTC and it was agreed upon that Seacruise would provide this service FREE OF CHARGE to those that use it in one simple message. We accept nothing in return, except a simple Thank You.     SeacruiseChat and SeacruiseReviews gains NOTHING.     We are doing RTC a service and if you had done some research on Google you would have found this out, but you didn’t. Now I am going to suggest that you visit the links I listed and tell me where we are a business? Also visit this link http://seacruisereviews.com/rtccharter.htm and read the top of the page. I hope this clarifies any misunderstanding you have on what Seacruise is or about.

Response:

Queenie: Sorry to disagree here with you but I think you better go back and do some research here BEFORE you open up that yap of yours. You have been famous for posting messages without ANY research at all, and once again you proved yourself again as a fool. Go back in Google and do some research as to why this came about and then maybe just maybe you will understand…..opps I forgot you will NEVER understand as you think your point of view is always correct.     I could try and explain how spam posts started to run amuck on here and how a change to the Charter was impossible. A compromise was suggested and Seacruise was asked if they would once again step in and help. We did and the problems since then have been kept down to almost nil when compared to other newsgroups. So you have yet to tell me how I or Seacruise make ANY money off of this? Either put up or shut up. Seacruise is proud to have one of the founding people of RTC as one of it’s crew. Sorry Queenie you are out of your league on this one. We are just doing as the majority on RTC want.

Nice tattoo … I don’t have pictures of mine. On one of our previous cruises one of our tablemates got a tattoo in Mexico … She missed dinner that night, as she was a wee bit intoxicated celebrating the new tattoo. Cathy

I made the mistake of inviting 2 girlfriends along when I had my last tattoo. They had both wanted one, but one of them was so freaked out by watching me that she’ll never get one. The other one waited 2-3 years and finally got one of her own. They are addicting. I’m planning my third … Cathy

I don’t need  to fight tooth and nail as you put it. Seacruise is doing a service for RTC and till we are told otherwise we will continue to do it. > Would you post the results again for all to see?

No need to, I know what the results are and most do here, why should I do YOUR research that you should have done before you stuffed BOTH FEET into your mouth again. Now I have asked you twice where I or anyone one else on Seacruise makes any money on this. You have accused Seacruise as being a business and I have asked you to show me. Since you can not provide any evidence I  suggest you shut up when you don’t have the facts. Sorry Queenie this is game set and match. Your out of your league on this one.

4. Provide RTC TA’s with the opportunity to abuse the spirit of the Charter with spamadvertising. Which brings us to crux of the matter. The Charter is a written, toothless document that is defined by the participants of RTC and by their show of (dis)approval of activities including TA spamadvertising. It is my take that the majority of RTCers are either apathetic to the constant spamadvertising, worn out by it or could care less about the issue. There are a few vocal minorities that raise this spamadvertising question and a vocal minority that fully supports the billboarding spamadvertisers like Goldenburger. So be it. Let the majority have what the majority does not address. The Not So Fine Art Of Google – Go To Top Of Thread http://makeashorterlink.com/?E29A321E6

Feb 23 2004 Carnival Ecstasy Phil Seacruise rec.travel.cruises (unmoderated) CHARTER Rec.travel.cruises is a forum whose purpose is to provide information and support to cruise ship travellers. Discussion might include (but not be limited to) the relative merits of the various cruise ships and lines, ports of embarkation, ports of call, shore excursions, cruise ship activities, cuisine, entertainment, cruise ship personnel, cruise ship management and the future of cruise ship travel. Discussions related to getting the best deals on cruises will be highly welcome. Such discussions might include early vs. late bookings, money back guarantees, cruise protection insurance, the use of general vs. cruise specific travel agencies and strategies for booking your own cruises. Any topic that relates to cruise ship travel and the cruise industry itself could be subject for discussion. In addition, discussion will be allowed on the history of cruise ship and ocean liner travel. Rec.travel.cruises will: 1.    Help the traveller make an informed decision in how to book a cruise without the pressure of a travel agent (travel agents are welcome to the group and are encouraged to participate in the discussion provided that there shall be no overt solicitation of business within postings). 2.    Provide the new cruiser with the benefit of the experience of veteran cruises. 3.    Provide the new cruiser with information as to what to expect once he or she actually arrives on the ship ready to sail. Such topics as cruise ship dress codes, dining room traditions, shopping, booking shore excursions and tipping are all topics that the first time cruiser needs to be familiar with. An FTP site will be maintained for related rec.travel.cruises files. These files will include a set of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s). Members of the newsgroup who go on cruises will be asked to write reviews of their experiences.

In addition, a comprehensive listing of all cruise ships and lines will be maintained as part of the FAQ’s. In summary, rec.travel.cruises encourages the free and open discussion on all aspects of cruise ship travel.

4. Provide RTC TA’s with the opportunity to abuse the spirit of the Charter with spamadvertising. Which brings us to crux of the matter. The Charter is a written, toothless document that is defined by the participants of RTC and by their show of (dis)approval of activities including TA spamadvertising. It is my take that the majority of RTCers are either apathetic to the constant spamadvertising, worn out by it or could care less about the issue. There are a few vocal minorities that raise this spamadvertising question and a vocal minority that fully supports the billboarding spamadvertisers like Goldenburger. So be it. Let the majority have what the majority does not address. The Not So Fine Art Of Google – Go To Top Of Thread http://makeashorterlink.com/?E29A321E6

Let me make it plain so that you won’t "loose allot" anymore. You posted the Charter and included your ad/sig line for no other reason that to expose your business to an international market of known cruisers who you want to sell cruises, etc to. I’ll give you a second and let that sink in. You used the Charter posting as your excuse to advertise your business. The Charter prohibits advertising. I’ll give you a minute and let that sink in. You have now established yourself as the Ultimate RTC Hypocrite Among TA’s. I’ll give you a life and let that sink in.

Response:

Hey Queenie: Maybe you should do some research before you insert BOTH feet into your mouth. . Seacruise is the first Cruise Chat Channel that was started in 1996. We are a non profit group that accepts no advertising or no money from Travel Agents. All moneys are free will donations from those on Seacruise. Seacruise agreed to keep the Charter and Post the Charter several years ago. As part of the Charter there is suppose to be a FTP site for reviews. Since FTP sites are pretty much a thing of the past http://seacruisereviews was born.     As a matter of clarification SeacruiseReviews (Steve) also posts Group Cruises submitted to him as one post. You see there was a problem with Spam on RTC and it was agreed upon that Seacruise would provide this service FREE OF CHARGE to those that use it in one simple message. We accept nothing in return, except a simple Thank You.     SeacruiseChat and SeacruiseReviews gains NOTHING.     We are doing RTC a service and if you had done some research on Google you would have found this out, but you didn’t. Now I am going to suggest that you visit the links I listed and tell me where we are a business? Also visit this link http://seacruisereviews.com/rtccharter.htm and read the top of the page. I hope this clarifies any misunderstanding you have on what Seacruise is or about.

Queenie: Sorry to disagree here with you but I think you better go back and do some research here BEFORE you open up that yap of yours. You have been famous for posting messages without ANY research at all, and once again you proved yourself again as a fool. Go back in Google and do some research as to why this came about and then maybe just maybe you will understand…..opps I forgot you will NEVER understand as you think your point of view is always correct.     I could try and explain how spam posts started to run amuck on here and how a change to the Charter was impossible. A compromise was suggested and Seacruise was asked if they would once again step in and help. We did and the problems since then have been kept down to almost nil when compared to other newsgroups. So you have yet to tell me how I or Seacruise make ANY money off of this? Either put up or shut up. Seacruise is proud to have one of the founding people of RTC as one of it’s crew.

I made the mistake of inviting 2 girlfriends along when I had my last tattoo. They had both wanted one, but one of them was so freaked out by watching me that she’ll never get one. The other one waited 2-3 years and finally got one of her own. They are addicting. I’m planning my third … Cathy

I don’t need  to fight tooth and nail as you put it. Seacruise is doing a service for RTC and till we are told otherwise we will continue to do it. > Would you post the results again for all to see?

No need to, I know what the results are and most do here, why should I do YOUR research that you should have done before you stuffed BOTH FEET into your mouth again. Now I have asked you twice where I or anyone one else on Seacruise makes any money on this. You have accused Seacruise as being a business and I have asked you to show me. Since you can not provide any evidence I  suggest you shut up when you don’t have the facts. Sorry Queenie this is game set and match. Your out of your league on this one.
