I think I've been on cruises with these people. They're the ones who take about 3 or 4 towels for each chaise that they are "saving" and come back after the rest of their pack has gotton out of bed and have gone to breakfast. So for several hours chairs are there but not for you. I don't think posted signs would have any effect on their ignorant behavior because signs are posted everywhere on a ship that chair saving is not permitted. You are forgetting that rules don't apply to these special folks.

Since it seems that there are more of us than them, why not form a posse armed with scissors to cut the ribbons and sit in the chairs. The "chair hogger" would not be able to rouse a half dozen of us from the chairs and their ribbon would be useless when we got up to free the next group of saved chairs. It would send a loud and clear message that we all have the right to participate and we're not going to take it anymore.

I'm not even there yet and I find it so annoying that even in T.V., the nice people who respect everyone and know how to behave finish last.
