The information is there. People can use it as they see fit. They can use it smartly----or less so.
But people who are far to trusting or who do not read well or with a critical eye-----I do not see how any forum is responsible for correcting this.
I also find no evidence the review system there is rigged as you claim. Any review system can be abused by those who are determined to do so. So I always that that into account when I read. But on the whole----solid reviews by well meaning guests---even if I disagree with their review.
ReconDoc:
I agree with you. And yes, I clicked through the links fti has posted. It's true there are (some) fake reviews. But generally, Tripadviser works well for me. Starting a "vendetta" against TA doesn't sound fair to me. BTW, I believe fti is smart enough to differentiate fakes from honest reviews.
