What's up with the Reviews Section?

jeffandbecky · 04-18-2007

We have this great Reviews tab at the top and there has not been a single post since 08/05. What is a real shame is that not one of us (including me) have posted a review of the Playainfo tours. Such a great place for new members to get answers, but so out of date. Instead telling people of "use the search function", we should be asking them "Have you looked at the reviews?".

the "reviews section" died a fast, painless death.
May she rest in peace.

Me too! On the other hand, you can find a review of most anything in the forums, though not as organized.

It's been mentioned before but maybe worth another mention.

Wouldn't a separate forum be great specifically for 'trip reports' including tours? We have one for food, all inclusives....why not trip reports? So much easier to find stuff.

James has a plan to deactivate the 'Reviews' section.

Hey, that's what you told me when we met Easter weekend at that "lost" afternoon at the Bucket.

Hi Cuz, nice meeting you too.

I just wondered why a feature that has had a lot of time and effort put into it was setting idol for over a year. Seemed like a great idea to promote the hotels/services on the Playadeal card as well as the tours.
