I think this is something you could do without manipulating existing posts. If you want it to be a "sticky" or create a new sub-forum (under this forum), then Admins would have to make the call & create.

You can always edit your own posts. So, if you create it, you can change/update it as needed. To reference existing posts, just insert a link to that post.

Example:

State #1

Honest David's RV Sales   
Honerst David's RV Sales

Dishonest David's RV Sales
Dishonest David's RV Sales


State #2

Weird David's RV and Old Ford Pinto Sales

State #3

Like above

For ratings, you could use the emoticons, such as:
Great
Good   
Fair   
Poor   
Awful   

assigning a numerical value to each and coming up with an average.

The original posts of members would have to be modified by them, should they wish to assign a rating.

If you have something else in mind, please feel free to give an example, so that I might better understand.

I'm going to offer a general opinion and the Admins are free & quite capable of speaking for themselves ......These guys do a lot of work (often behind the scenes) and shoulder all expenses of this forum. The forum costs the rest of us nothing and we are not subject to advertising when we visit. We all owe these guys a BIG thank you for all that they have done and continue to do (for free, as their time allows). Because of this, their life's commitments, etc., they may be a bit reluctant to take on even more; such as building and maintaining something like this.

So, my question would be: Is it important enough and/or do you believe strongly enough that you would be willing to do the work necessary to create & maintain it?

Well put.  However, I am not looking for another job.  I only suggested to the forum that such a table would be most helpful to us all.  I am not familiar or comfortable working with software or creating and maintaining same.  I think their may be others who read and post here that have a more extensive background in creating and maintaining this for all.  I would certainly offer my opinion on my dealership, and hopefully that would be helpful to others.

Thank you for your understanding. Perhaps someone will step forward who is willing to do this. No doubt, Admins have or will read this and will be happy to consider any offers. What you propose is not a bad idea....it comes down to who will do the work????

After your most recent post, I edited my previous post to include "Weird David's RV & Old Ford Pinto Sales" and "State #3" to demonstrate how it could be done.

Since we both seem to be in agreement, we just need someone to collate the expressed opinions and gather them together.  I don't think it will be difficult, just time consuming.  I think this is just a natural extension of what this forum offers to existing Rpod owners and potential owners.  On occasion, I see potential owners asking for some guidance in purchasing and or maintaining their Pods.  What better forum to help them than here.

 Would it be to difficult to maybe rate a dealer in diiferent catogories example according to their service and seperate their prices. Where one dealer may have low prices but bad service and another the opposite and another may have both good service and low prices.

Anything is possible.  Just depends on how the matrix is set up.
