I believe that the owners of DR1 would be liable for slander, if any occured.
In theory, I agree with you, that I would like to know who the scam artists are, the restaurants that poisoin you, etc, but we do have a network of DR1 members/friends, who look out for each other, and if a member needs info, it can be done in private by PM.
You are absolutely right.
Like I said before, just because I don't like a place, that does not necessarily means that "Joe Smith" would not like it.
For instance, I started a thread about the Best Empanadas that I have ever had and a member PM'ed me a few months after, telling me that I was full of crap because the Best Empanadas that HE had ever had was in a place in San Cristobal.
I will say this, whatever is posted here about being "Best", I take it like a grain of salt. I will be the judge of it after I have a taste of what he/she described as "Best?.
Rockys' ribs are supposed to be the greatest ribs and I have no doubts that they are(how can so many members be wrong?), but I will only find out if they are AFTER I have a taste of it/them. I am long overdue to visit my home in Cabarete and maybe, when I visit La Romana with Louisa on April, I will have me some of them "ribbies".
With all fairness, instead if "The Best", it should be "The Best According To.."
