,I've certainly opened my eyes quickly to the 'culture' on TA.
I don't buy into TA themselves monitoring the board so closely, it is one of many on TA. It is in my eyes still the actions of a small few on there who report any opinion that they don't like. Even in the last couple of days there has been a heated debate about stray dogs that has resulted in deleted posts by TA and two closed threads on the topic. There is also a storm brewing over smoking updates. I mean come on on. How controversial are these two topics, and they are both relevant to negril and people who travel there. And a few posts saying the same thing as me regarding a certain few long time members who act a certain way..and then getting posts deleted. So lone voice I am not.... Schutzzie, I agree having an argument on here is very sad, but sometimes you can't just sit on the fence and let people have a dig at you. It is always desirable to take the high road, but sometimes you have to join people in the gutter too.

If anyone cares to read back in this thread as to whom actually started the digs you will see that it is Westender herself. Up to that point others including HDM were providing accurate information about Tripadvisor. Just keeping the facts straight. And Westender, FYI, it takes three TA members to report a post before it is reviewed by the TA moderators and then possibly deleted only if it is found to break the rules. I was a destination expert at one time so I know how things work. BTW I have not posted in TA since Oct. 20th. Prior to that you will find that I post very infrequently. I rarely even look at the site anymore. It's been several months that I have been part of deleting any of the posts. Don't be so narcissistic. I could care less about anything you have to contribute. You are a very insecure person.

When I popped over to the Maui board to ask a few questions, all heck broke loose due to my question about whether a particular area was a good place to stay for a first visit. So, it is not only on the Jamaica TripAdvisor board. Those Hawaii people went so crazy, it made me forget about Chik-V and decide to stick with Jamaica.
It was going to take too long to get there anyway. :-) (GinSha1 on TripAdvisor)

I hear the Cancun/Maya Riviera boards on TA can be especially brutal, as well.

Hi GinSha! Welcome I hope to see you here often!
OMG - the New York Board (go ahead...I know...its to be "expected"). The ranting and raving over apartment rentals gets downright ridiculous and it seems no one can ask a question without being condescended (is that a word?) to. "Once in a while you can get shown the light in the strangest of places if you look at it right..."

Hey folks,
Rather than relying on the moderators to have to come in and PM everybody about what is proper board etiquette, give warnings, make threats, etc, let's all try to dial it back a bit and remember that we encourage open debate about ideas and interpretation of "facts", but we do not like or want to tolerate personal attacks against other posters on the board. You are making a "personal attack" anytime your response to a post strays into making a statement about a person, rather than a statement about an idea or event that has occurred. Let's keep it clean. Thanks. -The management |
