Rules & Recommendations
Recommendations:
Keep your review simple. Avoid including too many facts and figures about the ship or the ports unless it is vital information pertaining to your specific cruise experience.
Create your review in your favorite word processor, format the paragraphs the way you want it to appear (do not indent or use bullet lists). Spell Check the final document then "Copy and Paste" your finished document into the Review box.
Do not put in a title at the top of the review. That information is taken directly from the input boxes.
Don't spend a lot of time creating exotic fonts, indenting, etc. All reviews are converted to standard ASCII text when submitted.
Rules:
CruiseMates reserves the right to publish in whole or part, in any media,
any review submitted by this form. The author shall receive credit by the
name inserted above in the form field "written by". By clicking the button
below you assert that you are the original author, and you indemnify
CruiseMates from financial compensation for publication of this review.
Please read our User Agreement for more details.
ALL fields must be completed to process this review!
All reviews submitted MUST be a complete review! Submissions that provide links to other web sites that contain the review will NOT be processed! Do not include links to other web sites as part of your review. Exception: A link to a related photo gallery is acceptable.
Please try to limit the length of your review to 2000 words or less. (Please do not submit any review in segments i.e. Part 1, Part 2, etc.)!
We do respect your right to post a negative review, and we do not censor, edit or re-write negative reviews (except for grammar or technical details in some cases) - however, a one paragraph statement about your cruise experience or a complaint about your travel agent does not qualify as a review. Such statements belong in our message boards, not in the cruise reviews.
Do not combine or do comparison reviews of different cruises or cruise ships. All combined reviews will be rejected and the author will be notified. This includes "back to back" cruises on different ships. Associated links will be provided upon request for "back to back" cruises.
Please format your posts to look like traditional Funk and Wagnall's English. That means employing capital and lowercase letters in a traditional manner. . . neither all caps, nor all lowercase. Using all capital letters is known as "SHOUTING", making the message difficult to read and a eyesore.
Most submissions are posted "AS IS" but may be edited.
All reviews are listed by ship in Cruise Date Order, not date submitted.
Do not submit the review in HTML or with HTML code embedded. The embedded code has to be manually removed to make it compatible with our format. Please summit review in Plain Text Only!
