Krazy Kruizers Posted October 31, 2018 #56 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Oh -- we loved the Flintstones!! Barney, Wilma, Barney and Betty Rubble, Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm, Dino all living in Bedrock. Maybe if we had Dino in our back yard, we would not have so many deer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to believe but hey have their usual CC ID and this alias appears when they have a particular issue they want to vent . An issue they don't want associated with their usual name .

Many members with high post counts also contribute a lot to the forum (beyond just a count). My bias is to give greater credence to those with high post counts . It's not a foolproof system . 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare MicCanberra Posted November 1, 2018 #62 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I suppose the OP can see how it is fairly easy to accumulate posts just by discussion and banter on a thread well and truly after the question has been answered. https://www.google.com.au/search?source=hp&ei=QrHaW4j9F82-9QOX7IOwAQ&q=flintstones+theme+song&oq=flintsones&gs_l=psy-ab.1.4.0i10k1l10.1664.4246.0.33105.10.10.0.0.0.0.306.1721.0j2j5j1.8.0....0...1c.1.64.psy-ab..2.8.1712...0j0i131k1.0.YhBvjNEIF8Q Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is not permitted on CC and ?? maybe? ips address attached to duplicate post names would give it 'away'? Though, two adult persons in same house using same wifi/ device would have same address but it would be 'legal' as they are two individuals, each entitled to have an account Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted December 8, 2018 #64 Share Posted December 8, 2018 However, I agree there likely are at least f ew cc'ers. who, through the years I have been on cc, I strongly suspect posted under more than one i.d. One of whom had been posting in the fairly recent past months but I've seen no posts from them lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wwcruisers Posted December 8, 2018 #72 Share Posted December 8, 2018 (edited) I too get annoyed by the dismissive "Well, at least you got your post count up !" type of reply. It makes me wonder if that particular poster can even do simple math. I've been active on these boards for nearly nine years now. That's not nearly as long as some folks -- but definitely long enough to be pushing 10K, with just a few posts each day! (But Shhh.... don't give away our secret: that you win a free cruise, when you get to a GAZILLION posts! 😜) Edited December 8, 2018 by wwcruisers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been guilty of the "Thanks for the review" comments or a simple one or two word reply to a post. It's just a way of contributing to a thread. I've written reviews here in the past that have generated very few responses and it makes me feel like I shouldn't bother. Any statement from someone actually reading my review is appreciated. For this reason I always try to comment on someone's review thread. I know how you feel. There was a time when I did "live" threads and spent a fortune on the Internet as I belonged to 3 sites at the time. Got some people following but certainly it wasn't worth the money. The I switched to do a review when I got home -- got some nice responses but still not worth the effort. So I don't even do that anymore. Like you I do follow some people and their "Live" reports and do make comments. I appreciate those people who take time out from their cruises to write their daily (sometimes more reports in a day) and post pictures as well and I will make comments on them. I have even learned how to post pictures and do add from time to time pictures there and make comments on other posters pictures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare puppycanducruise Posted December 9, 2018 #75 Share Posted December 9, 2018 When I first joined Cruise Critic, I noticed a certain poster who had 70-80000 posts, and I thought, "wow, I bet this person has a lot of knowledge to share". Now that I've been here a few years, that poster is still posting some terrible information, and I think "wow, that person hasn't got a clue". Post count doesn't mean much. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
