Kapn Jonah: Done! However, you quoted me, and I can't edit ANYTHING about THAT. Will you delete?

The first time my wife saw a radar arch on a boat, she called it a "rollbar"

Hello people. I am so bothered about stens of some certain cruise ships. I want to hear your opinion of the sterns below. My opinion is that Princess cruises were drunk while doing plans for this vessel, or the shipyard... dunno. But thy make me feel sick. They are the most DISGUSTING cruise ships in the history of civilised matitime!!

No, no, no. The designers weren't drunk at all....one of them sneezed while doing the plans.....*see that upper deck of the stern, James? aa aaa aaaaaaa aaaaaaaachooooooooooooo!!!!! woops....will that design do James? even though it is slightly bent?*

Yes I know thats what I heard. By the way I like your sig, Aidablu, I sailed on her on a med cruise this year as shes now Ocean Village 2. lovly ship.

im glad you think she's a nice ship, as she was my first love

, but can tell you the ocean village cruises, will be closed by dec. 2009

and Ocean village II, and her sistership Ocean village, will be joining the P&O's fleet in Australia and be named Pacific Jewel $:-\$ .

so now she's even further away

and im also glad you like my newly made sig, hehe

Ughh...It ruins the ship...Maybe the spioler is a handle to make it easier for god to send the ship to davy jones's locker!

Microsoft,

First off; You are entitled to your opinion, as is everyone else on this forum.

If something is ugly to you, then it's ugly to you, easy as that. But I think you could have expressed your opinion a bit less rude, to be honest.

Try to express yourself a bit more respectfull towards others that might like these designs, and/or are actually involved with the process of creating these ships. They deserve better than being mocked, don't you agree? Calling them drunks, and making fun of the design process and so on, is disrespectful.

Thanks for your understanding!

Regards,
Fred

hmm? The whole reason I posted this topic is to see what everyone thought... I, yet again, am confused

Mad_Fred · « **Reply #33 on:** November 12, 2008, 21:39:53 »

Yeah it's okay to have such a topic and it's okay to get such a discussion going. But calling ship designers drunks and mocking them a bit because you don't happen to like the looks of those ships, that's not very kind to those people that work really hard to create these ships, both on paper and for real. That's what I mean.

Nothing wrong with opinions, but I'm not keen on strong terms like 'disgust' and such. And just because it's not goodlooking to you, doesn't make the designers 'drunk fools', that's my point.

Regards,
Fred

Instead of being confused you should moderate your original post to remove the offensive and untrue statements. As one who was involved in all aspects of the design of the Grand Class cruise ships I can assure you that there was no one, at any meeting in any country who was drunk. The people involved were and in many cases still are highly respected and motivated members of the cruise/ship building industries and will be quite surprised when they learn about the unmitigated rubbish which VStep allow on their forums.

Mike, I think the very title of this topic invites the kind of comment weâ€™ve seen from Mickeysoft and others.

Cruise ships make a lot of people sick, but thatâ€™s usually from eating the food, or failure of the roll stabilizers.

SS Norway after her second refit like in your picture was really ugly, worse than the princess ships. However not as ugly as this, the planned NCL F3:

If you looked at the site those pictures came from you'd see that those aren't even the official desighns for the F3's. they say and I quote "NCL have not yet released an official image of their F3 ship. However, this image below has appeared on the internet (source unknown). Is it a genuine image of an NCL F3 or is it a fake created by somebody good with Photoshop? Is it an early ship yard â€˜conceptâ€™ rendering or is it the final design? I have no idea if it is a â€˜realâ€™ rendition or not."
Once they come out with the offical pictures you can bash the ships all you want but don't do it before they even come out with the offical desighns!!!!!

Personnally i don't like the desighns either and i would excpect more form NCL looking at some of there other ships (Except Pride of America of course

) Especcially after sailing on the Norwegian Sun (See my icon) and exsperincing there "freestyle cruising".

Hey microsoft

I've been to a visit on the Star Princess (sister ship to Golden Princess, and grand Princess), AND BOY OHH BOY, those ships may not be as beautifull on the outside, but have you ever heard of innerbeauty, DAMN she's nice inside, and if you realy want to seee ugly ships, i don't believe your in the right spot $:-\$ $:-\$ , because from my point of view Even the Mighty SS norway, was a beauty.

BTW. have you ever been on those what did you call them "ugly" ships. as writen above, they are pretty nice inside..

Theres no ugly ships in the world, But there might be ships that you don't like as much as others, BUT no ugly ships...

Just my thoughts as a cruise ship spotter/lover..

Microsoft,, my post deleted. Thank you for changing your original one, it is a worthwhile topic for converstion providing it it worded correctly. Now I have no problem with it apart from the fact that it is still quoted in 2 other members answers. Perhaps you should PM them and ask them to remove the quote?

Perhaps you should have named this topic "Ships I don't like"..

Great, I, do not have any problem with my origional post. I stil;l haven't forgiven you for insulting me. Its a NICKNAME, Chaps, the whole point of it is to tell you what to call the user. If it wasnt, we could all just be called "forum user" and thats that. Your deleted post was one which was much offencive than my origional one. So I don't mind the quotes.
