Should Carnival Enforce Formal Night Attire?

[jpg1747]

I think they should. I have seen people in shorts on Formal night, that is just rude.

 

 

Rude to whom?

 

I'd rather see people informally dressed and on time then all dressed up and late.

[Chigirlcruzin]

Chigirlcruzin or scapino I don't know what or how you did it.......but from post 89 and down it shows Mammaskittles and my quotes are incorrect. I believe you are quoting wrong......

Everything is screwed up LOL!

 

 

Did this quote correctly! LOL! That's funny! Just like cali's "twin" dogs:)

LOL! I started reading the quotes and I'm like *****:confused: I didn't say that LOL!

Too funny!

[Calicruiser101]

What dogs:confused:

 

 

Ok, you scared me at first:eek: Then I saw the rest of your response. It has been pretty nice around here, but very windy. I am sure we are going to be put on some sort of fire watch pretty soon. Can't believe Tahoe, so sad.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Kidding! We are finally seeing the same thing LOL! Good talkin to ya....Ya been enjoying our great weather?

 

How is your weather?

[hdawson]

JPG. Are you saying those that respect the dress standards are normally late to dinner? I dress appropriately and am quite anxious to get to dinner.

[Kurbanfan]

How is your weather?

 

I thought you were down here in S. Calif. like me.....Are you up the

coast:confused:

It's been nice and warm here. Have not had a chance to catch the news what's happening in Tahoe? Fire?

[Calicruiser101]

I admit I tend to run late for most things that I do, however dining is not one of them. Plus travelling w/ my Dad he is always on time. Just because some people dress up does not mean they are going to be late for dinner, not sure where you made that connection? Not to mention, I would prefer to see someone dressed up and running late then someone who didn't bother to present themselves in a manner that was acceptable in the dining room.:rolleyes:

Yes, I am up from you, Monterey. Yeah, nasty fire in Tahoe that has claimed around 200 homes. You all are always on fire or so it seems. I have a good friend in San Pedro so whenever I hear L.A. is on fire my ears perk up.:eek:

You say that formal wear is their rule? Do you follow all the rules? Do you drive over 35 in a 35 zone? Do you use your cell phone while driving when it's against the law? There are many more examples but I think you get the point. All i'm saying is if I am dressed VERY nice without a jacket and tie, what the h..l do you care. You're only answer has been, "It's Carnival's policy/rules". I have been to the best restaurants throughout the world and when a jacket and tie is appropriate, I wear it. A Carnival cruise is NOT that venue, for me. And if it is for you, I respect that.

 

 

And you are not the only one on the ship. Unfortunately some people no longer see the world as a place for we but for me. Rules and laws are created as a way to make life less chaotic and/or barbaric. If we all followed the rules we would all know where we stand, what our options are, and what we need to do. It is when you have some jackabee deciding that "I don't want to so therefore I don't have to" -- doesn't matter what anybody else thinks, needs or wants. And that sets up the thought process for some other people that feel "if he doesn't have to then neither do I" so on and so on and so on. Then all the rest of us who are rule followers just trying to do our part to be fair to all by doing what is set before us get screwed.

we just posted a second apart, i think. that was wild.

Monterey is beautiful! Yes it seems we are always on fire LOL! Not much rain again this year I think we are in for another bad season......

I guess I better go catch up on the news....very sad about Tahoe...

 

 

Now back to our regular program:eek:

Go ahead everyone fight it out!!!!

[Kurbanfan]

Hey girlfriend! Boards all screwed up. It shows quotes that I didn't even quote LOL!

Hey True, I haven't been on too much in the last few days either. Had a huge 40th B-day party for my sister. Wow, party planning, caterers, etc. is very tiring. Glad the computer is working again, I can't live w/out my laptop, especially the amount of time we all spend on here. Glad your bro made it out safely. My parent's used to own a cabin there too but that has been years ago (when I was growing up).

So what are your thoughts on this most important question? Dress up, dress down, enforce, not enforce, be late, come early?:D

[PrettyLA]

It should be required. I don't get what people don't get about the word REQUIRED. If you don't want to wear that kind of clothes, go to the buffet.

[Calicruiser101]

Hey girlfriend! Boards all screwed up. It shows quotes that I din't even quote LOL!

I know I have been having that problem and I did see where all your quotes were messed up. Oh True, I can actually see my "twins" now, how weird is that?

[Chigirlcruzin]

Hey girlfriend! Boards all screwed up. It shows quotes that I didn't even quote LOL!

 

Happened to me too! I was reading along, and "I didn't say that!"

FYI, the boards are messed up, and Scapino said what you quoted, not me:) . I agree with you 100%. Does it really affect my cruise, no, but if you don't want to dress up, there are plenty of other options - on Carnival, on other lines, on land.

 

Edited to add: and Scapino didn't say what I quoted. What is going on here?

[truecruiser]

uh-oh. that sounds like it cld be a wee bit of a problem. yikes. thanks for the heads up. nothing quoted was that bad i hope.

glad the party went well. yes, the lap top is my nightime and poolside sign-in vehicle, LOL.:cool: don't like to be stuck in the home office all the time.:D

 

re: the last part of your post, shhhhhhhh, don't tell anyone, but i haven't read the thread. i just saw you guys were on it and wanted to say hi and test my 'puter. :D :p BTW, i am not a computer guru, so i am quite proud of myself for just figuring this out w/o help *pats self on the back.*:p

[hdawson]

Wonder how many of those that don't want to dress appropriately for the DR but won't consider the buffet, eat breakfast and lunch in the buffet. I've read many posts that the food in the evening at the buffet is very good.

[Kurbanfan]

Happened to me too! I was reading along, and "I didn't say that!"

 

I can't figure it out. I think Scapino screwed it up somewhere LOL!

Oh well I think the thread is dead anyways.....

[truecruiser]

I know I have been having that problem and I did see where all your quotes were messed up. Oh True, I can actually see my "twins" now, how weird is that?

 

LMAO!!!:D :p :D you can???? sheesh! it's about time the mods let you in on the joke! (kidding).

 

it was so wild that you cld not see them all of those times. still don't understand how that cld be:confused:

holy cow! who's on first? LMAO. so was it scapino's quote?

 

too funny, but this is a dangerous thing. someone will end up flamin' for something ya never said b/c everyone sees it as being quoted from you.:eek: :eek: :eek:

[river_sand_bar2]

Hey this might be kinda fun...who said what when and why..
