I think you need to read my post again. I never criticised the boat just he stupy ugly paint job. Read properly before u post.

Take it easy now. If you want to discuss opinions, that's fine. If you have certain frustrations, that's fine, But keep everything here within a reasonable matter. Don't become edgy to people just because they say something about a ship you hate. Lars' post isn't even offending so there is no reason to respond like that.

And the creators deserving to "to rot in the depths of hell..." is a bit of offending as well.
If you hate a design you can show it here, that's where this topic is for. but that sentence is just plain unnecessary and unreasonable.

To your information, AIDA cruises are popular for families with kids due to the informal, colorfull and friendly design. That's what makes them different to other cruiselines. It is only reasonable the ship features such designs. Again, it's a matter of taste. But the creators certainly don't have to rot in hell for that, and it's most certainly not a reason to become so upset about it.

Hey, that actually looks pretty cool. But I agree, what is it?

None of them seem to be truly 'ugly'
Do you have reasons for each one of them to explain what in your opinion makes them look ugly.

Jake_Savage · « **Reply #1109 on:** June 26, 2013, 15:11:27 »

This thread is a matter of opinion. You might not find them ugly and that's fine. But it's entirely opinion based so i don't really need to back it up.

Rbsanford · « **Reply #1110 on:** June 26, 2013, 23:22:38 »

Lovely bows, I would love to see one in SSE.

larsdehaan · « **Reply #1111 on:** June 27, 2013, 09:32:41 »

I must agree with Jake, Those things are hidious.

Rbsanford · « **Reply #1112 on:** June 27, 2013, 16:26:38 »

Really? I think their voluptuousness is attractive.

Jake_Savage · « **Reply #1113 on:** June 27, 2013, 16:32:15 »

I respect your opinion but I think the size of hulls ruins them. If they had cut t down a bit they would be nice.

clanky · « **Reply #1114 on:** June 27, 2013, 22:03:06 »

I'm with Jake on this one, they all look pretty ugly to me.

Jake_Savage · « **Reply #1115 on:** June 27, 2013, 22:33:04 »

Quick fact : that ship which you think is the titanic (same with all archive videos and photos) is the Britannic not titanic. There are no photos of the titanic they are all the Britannic but pulled it off by changing name because they are identical.

Jake_Savage · « **Reply #1116 on:** June 27, 2013, 22:37:15 »

Both those photos are the Britannic. There are NO photos of the titanic.

Jake_Savage · « **Reply #1117 on:** June 27, 2013, 22:41:49 »

Even in 1912 they could change a name you moron. The press didnt cover Titanics launch because she wasnt the first Olympic liner. All photos were taken by passengers which went down with the ship very few photos of her sinking are still around. Many copies have been made though. I read this during my history a-level.

Jake_Savage · « **Reply #1118 on:** June 27, 2013, 22:44:31 »

My apologies for getting names mixed up the Olympic is the one I meant. Believe the A-Level history student if u wish but if u dont more fool you. I don't want to start an argument.

Mr Robville · « **Reply #1119 on:** June 27, 2013, 23:10:28 »

Alright people, let's not incite another endless argument about the Olympic class ships and figuring reasons why one hates it.

To end such potential endless discussion, here are the facts in a nutshell:
Titanic was part of a passenger liner series named the "Olympic class":
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olympic-class_ocean_liner
Named after the first ship; the RMS Olympic (1911), followed by Titanic (1912) and ended with Gigantic, which was later named Britannic (1914).
Olympic got scrapped, Titanic sank as well as the Britannic.
Many people confuse Titanic and Olympic because of their similarities in design during the early years.
If anyone thinks some conspiracy switched nameplates between Titanic and Olympic, go spread your hoax someplace else.

As you find paintings ugly i found a collection of ships for you!

Some have already been mentioned before but just for the purpose right now i will show them
Note: many of these pictures are from the ugly ships website

Although the last 2 were for camouflage

^^ pure greyish colour

and to finish off with a collection of yellow ships:

Captain Cadet · « **Reply #1124 on:** June 29, 2013, 17:26:05 »

The two ships in black and white were painted that way as it was World War 1 and that they could sail close to the enemy without being seen as those patters are camouflage from a distance away! Just some intressting fact
