Room Reports

How many people supply information for room reports in the
DVC Frequently Asked Questions link above

I've filled out the room report after each trip. The problem is, they "fall off" the site after a few months so they're not that great of a resource.

Far more helpful, I think, is the work InstImpres has done to accumulate information about the various DVC rooms. Just my opinion.

Oops! Thanks for the reminder. ANd I'm usually the one reminding everyone else. Sticky note on my computer to do it TODAY!

 

[InstImpres]

I've opted not to use them for several reasons:

1) They take a long time to open on my computer for some reason (I am on cable modem and threads open in under 2 seconds but room reports take an avg. of 35 seconds)

2) There is no way to view them as a whole, you must look at each individually

3) They don't provide a lot of the info I am looking for unless the person entered many comments (Dist from elev., view, hand.. etc)

4) They drop off after only 4 months

That said, I did many months ago have a post asking the web masters about it. The answer was it didn't get enough use to warrant a format change. If the usage went up, it was something they would consider. I than put out a plea for reports to no avail. That's why I started my own reports.

Thanks Sandy that's why I was asking.
I think yours are great and I use them all the time.
I have a fast link on one machine and a slow one on the other .
Sometimes I have to use the slow one (when my daughter is playing music dvd's of "Westlife" ) and it frustrates me .
Thanks for all your work.
