Favorite and Most Informative Vistana Threads

[jabberwocky]

I’ve been looking back through many threads in the Vistana forum and realize how helpful they were in making me understand what I owned and how to get better use out of it (and get a way better deal via resale).

I’m just curious, what have been some of the most informative threads that you’ve found particularly helpful in the Vistana forum?

You can filter the threads in the Vistana Forum by Views and Replies.

Outside of the 'Stickies'...
The 3 Westin St John Threads are in the top 4 for both Views and Replies.
But, I'd suppose that is only for WSJ Owners or those interested.

For me - Views from the Balconies
Most Impactful - The original Requal Thread by @duke

I find myself going to some of the more current FAQ threads more often when trying to respond to questions in the forum. The FAQ about Flex programs or the resort maps. Just easier to find all those maps in one place vs multiple clicks and searches from the Vistana.com Dashboard.

I went and looked at that original Requal thread from the sticky and it is good, but the program is more defined now with different pricing. It could use a refresh.

I am not necessarily a fan of monster "master" threads. Finding individual topics within a thread like the WSJ one is a bit of a pain where if there were multiple threads, a search of the forum would bring up multiple threads where you might be able to identify the subject better.

When I decided we might want to own at the WSJ, reading through those threads was indeed incredibly useful...the posts were 'Everything you always wanted to know about WSJ but were afraid to ask'. And after I read through them all I knew exactly which three or so follow up questions I needed to ask.

I actually wish more resorts had master threads...having to search through 57 different threads is fine if what you want to know about is searchable (e.g. Nawiliwili) and rather annoying if not.
