Cruise Reviews vs discussion topics

[Steerpike58]

I see that Cruise reviews are different animals to regular forum posts; you can't comment / reply to a Cruise Review, it seems.  I've read several cruise reviews that make misleading statements, but there's no way to correct or challenge what they said.

 

Also, it seems the cruise reviews are organized by 'ship', not itinerary.  That is - you have to enter your ship as the primary element of your review.  I'm more interested in providing a review of our itinerary, not the specific ship that happened to be in service that week. Is there a place to discuss (forum style) specific itineraries?

I see now that several people are posting their cruise experiences in the various forum areas (like "River Cruising"), so I guess there are formal 'reviews' that have a different structure and then there are posts that are effectively reviews.
