<?xml encoding="utf-8" ?><div><p>I keep coming back and I even decided to pay for this for a month to test it out.&nbsp; What I find here is just a shadow of what MP reviews once was. It seems like everybody is gone and isn't returning. The website is hard to navigate and redundant. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would probably rate this a 3.&nbsp; At this point I'm just thinking about purchasing some cyber currencies and going to the other side.&nbsp; Gone are all the reviews and basically all of Orange County has been wiped out. The archives are missing nobody's posting in Orange County anymore and he used to be the Mecca</p>

Yeah this site has been dead since the revamp a while back it’s like they restored from an old back up and are missing reviews for years.

What data is here is all garbled up. It’s just not very useful. The UI is clunky not all the drop downs work it’s just not very useful. I think they need to give some sort of incentive to post here.

Did the original site just stop working? For me it just stopped working one day and didn't return for months.

I think the new site is some kids College assignment to create a website. I paid for awhile and would have continued paying but to much difficulty accessing reviews. I hope this site gets it together.

I understand why some longtime members feel frustrated if content they remember is no longer available. Losing historical reviews is disappointing, and rebuilding a community takes time.

At the same time, we're focused on long-term growth rather than trying to recreate the past overnight. While some legacy content was lost, we're adding thousands of new business profiles, users are publishing new reviews every day, expanding city coverage, and investing heavily in SEO to bring new members into the community.

Those new visitors are discovering MPR through Google, spending time exploring profiles, and contributing fresh content that will continue to grow over time. That's how communities are rebuilt.

We've also heard the feedback about the interface. That's why we now offer both experiences. If you prefer the original style, you can switch to Classic View with one click. If you like a more modern layout, that's available too. We want members to use whichever version they enjoy most.

Our goal isn't just to replace what existed before. It's to build a larger, more useful platform with better search, stronger business profiles, improved review tools, and features that make it easier for the community to contribute. We appreciate everyone's feedback, and we'll keep improving as the site continues to grow.

@asiankitty much difficulty accessing reviews.? expand we have a search link in the header and the classic version is now active. I find it easy to search for reviews. What specifically is the confusion with finding reviews?

What happened to all the great monger reviewers?? What made this website great were the Banghoes of the world and their great , detailed reviews. You are kidding yourself if you think this current version is great. It doesnt hold a candle to what it used to be and why everyone hasn't rushed back to RM is beyond me...I check back thinking they may come to their senses and listen to the mongers that made this website great but thats a pipe dream at this point.....

Definitely no longer look forward to attempting navigation here - outdated, historical work and efforts by so many are now extinguished...former site was such a great landing spot and community. This just isn't a fun place anymore and it provides very little value.

I've come back to see if this is working again, but it appears its permanently broken. I am giving up as it seems to be getting worse instead of better. And the odd part is they seem to want everyone to pay before its actually working correctly. Good Luck with that. -WH
