[times(and things) change]

This should just be part of the Cruise Critic post Saturday but I decided to do it earlier.

Lovedamships, and its "sister" website, Lovedamships Review and-by extension Cruise Critic- are-more or less-dead. Lovedamships isn't updated regularly anymore, and Lovedamships  Review hasn't been updated for 2 plus years.

I think a lot of it has to do with the people at Lovedamships and Lovedamships Review realising that they were-at times-mean-spirited. I know I said some not-so-nice things on my Cruise Critic posts(boy did I ever!) but I've turned over a new leaf. I try not to name names if I can help it.

Unless Lovedamships starts going again, I see Lovedamships Review staying dead.

I want to point out some of the shit that goes on, but as I said,I 'm not naming names anymore.But if someone from Cruise Critic  saw something they had written quoted(but without their name)they would know it was them.

The reason that Lovedamships Review was so weird is it was people criticising things that were(IMO) petty.

Not everyone knows this, so here's some backstory:There is definitely a hierarchy at Cruise Critic.A sort of "speak when you're spoken to" sort of thing, you know? That sort of mentality is what has scared people off of cruising with Holland America.Add to that, all of the usual sticking points(dress code, smoking, etc.) and it's a tinderbox. If you dare to deviate and ask what they think is a stupid question.. gone.

Well, I mean you could stay-it's not  as if the people posting are in charge of who gets banned or not-but after having your ass handed to you, you won't want to stick around, trust me!
