Browse Before You Post
Browse a topic first to see if your question has already been asked or answered by someone else. Also, many of the major cruise lines forums have a FAQ (Frequently Asked Question) topic that has been created by our members. Give that a try first. Browsing is your #1 best resource! Please post your messages in an appropriate topic so that you'll receive the best possible response. It is very time consuming to move misplaced messages that are in the wrong topics.
Anytime you need tostart a new thread on a forum, first make sure you are in the correct forum for your topic.Word your new thread titlein a way to helpthe members know exactly the information you seek.This greatly helps the membersbrowsing through the thread titlesand if theyknow the information,theywill post repliesto you.
Also, it is best to limit each inquiry message to onlyonetopicsuch as one cruise line, one ship,one port of call, etc. and of course, on the correct forum.You will get more replies that way. Be sure to mention the cruise line, ship, sail date or port in your inquiry message if that sort of information will help your fellow Cruise Critic members help you.
Be sure to check if there is an existing Cruise Critic Roll Call thread for your specific cruise line, ship and sail date. If not, feel free to start one!And don't worry about any responsibilities in starting a Roll Call thread.Roll Calls belong to everyone; there is no designated leader or owner. It does not matter who started the thread.Roll Callsare for Cruise Critic members on the same cruise. They get to know one another online before their cruise sothere will be all kinds of discussion in the Roll Call thread for their cruise!
