    I used to love this site but gave up on it years ago when they redesigned it in a way that made it less useful to me. Since my login still works and I’m in the neighborhood I thought I’d ask it here.

    How do you use the current site to plan your road trips?

    In its previous incarnation I saw a map with multiple places marked with pins. So I could visually estimate how long a detour off of I-95 (for example) it would be to get to Sweatman’s BBQ. Then I could go hit the restaurant review to find out that they were/were not open on the day I was passing through. (They weren’t.)

    How do you do it now?

    Thanks

    I’m guessing you may be referring to the guides and reviews rather than the Forums? I don’t use that part of the site much but when I’ve tried to, I find it very tedious.

    If you are talking about the Forums, be aware that they’re all screwed up. Threads are not in chronological order and quoted passages are not distinguishable from replies and pictures are missing. This applies to anything posted before early December, 2019.

    We got punted over here in December and left with this mess; the owners say they’ve done all they can for us.

    Traffic is way down here. If you don’t get more help in a few days, try posting on the Facebook page (link through the icon above). That’s all the owners care about anymore; maybe they’ll have some tips.

    But glad you stopped by!
