Tranquil Waters Posted January 11, 2011 #1 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I have it all figured out. Cruise Critic got RCI to postpone the announcement. It is a case of influence peddling (or some corporate sneaky doings). CC provides tons of advertising for RCI and RCI advertises on CC and supports CC Meet & Mingles. They are definately in each other's pockets. :rolleyes: Soooooo....... given the amount of time and posts that have been devoted to this issue - think of the advertising for RCI and the "activity" that CC can show to other advertisers to justify a higher cost for said advertising. The longer RCI and CC can drag this out the more money they each can take to the bank. :eek: We are being used I tell you, used! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeaBaby Posted January 11, 2011 #11 Share Posted January 11, 2011 On second thought, I think RCI head office staff are amusing themselves with this. They plant a mole on cruise critic, start a rumor about C&A changes, take bets to see how many threads/messages there are on this one subject, and laugh themselves silly during their coffee break!!!:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coralc Posted January 12, 2011 #18 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I guess I must have missed it,R they changeing the date for the changes to C & A? Yes. The new rumor is that the rumored announcement date is changed. Hi to you and Connie. :) Well, phooey, I guess I will actually have to do some computer work & paperwork tomorrow. Oh well, I'm sure it will be appreciated by my employers. :D:):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehfl Posted January 12, 2011 #19 Share Posted January 12, 2011 OR....maybe there never was any announcement...could have been just another rumor started by a bored person on CC. It seems like there's a rumor started every week on here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tranquil Waters Posted January 12, 2011 Author #21 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Make sure you use a loop to check that diamond for inclusions.;) Only in this case inclusions would be a good thing. It is the exclusions that one has to worry about. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfcathorse Posted January 12, 2011 #22 Share Posted January 12, 2011 hey PH8, remember at the Captains Q & A session on Radiance in December that the hotel director Clunis was asked about the changes and he said (and I quote verbatim) "changes are coming next month but I don't know the details". I think they had to delay the announcement because the IT guys couldn't get the software to work right on everyone's cruise history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

not2old Posted January 12, 2011 #24 Share Posted January 12, 2011 I do recall that...........oh well,something or someone has held it up,I guess...... It's only my non educated guess, but I think there won't be an announcement when the changes happen. We will go onto the "new & improved" website and the changes will have been applied! Just like the nightmare of discovering their newly designed website... JMHO! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcur Posted January 12, 2011 #25 Share Posted January 12, 2011 Maybe CC asked RCCL to postpone when they realized the traffic on the CC web site for people changing ALL THOSE SIGNATURES to days/nights at sea instead of just cruises!!! :eek::eek::eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
