I have been ignoring all this Beta stuff. Yesterday I received an email asking me for permission to put my reviews somewhere or other. Why is FlyerTalk intent on changing something that works perfectly well? I will continue to ignore this and if I find I can no longer post, then I will no longer take part in FlyerTalk, which would be sad.

While I happily gave permission for them to do whatever they want with my hotel reviews, I'm going to wait and see how it goes before posting in a new format. No point in judging a beta.
But I will say that no amount of glitz and glam can replace good creative writing.

EDIT: The message you got was unrelated to the review format. What you posted was caught in our spam alert filter and added to the moderator queue, where it was then approved. Posting the same content on FT in any format would have the same result.
