After visiting the Marriott Vacation Club site, the site we time-share owners are directed to for all things ‘timeshare’, I provided the following:

With all that I am, with every fiber of my chumpy little being, with all my strength and all I can muster, I profess, and gnash my few remaining teeth over, my hatred of Marriott. I despise Marriott. I despise each and every one of those piss-ant hotels and resorts, the corporate elite properties, particularly those exampled as a ‘destination’. I hate each lair, each sucking so hard for a breath of stagnant air, each working at a reprobate’s pace to break the vacuum of inch deep feces and filth. [inappropriate comment deleted - DeniseM]

sincerely, Ted

That is one of the more interesting first posts I've seen; certainly one of the few posts, if any, to use to word reprobate.

DeniseM and Sue appear to have omitted the usual welcome to TUG in response to the initial post of a guest. Allow me to correct that omission.

Welcome to TUG!!:cheer:

Perhaps you would consider sharing the tale that prompted your post.

REALLY? Your first post and this is what you post? Oh brother, another Marriott "hater." If you seriously despise mother Marriott so much to send such a hateful note to them and then post it here for others to read, just stay the heck away from them. If you own MVC, sell it or give it away. If you have Marriott reward points, transfer them to an airline or other affiliated program, and never stay in another Marriott again. Seriously, I doubt they'd care.

[reference to deleted comment - edited - DeniseM] I'd ask what your point was but really? I don't care. You're rude and offensive - period.

I for one will not welcome you to TUG but admire DeniseM for taking a higher road than I do.

I will have to agree with JanT. You may have legitimate complaints regarding Marriott - this wouldn't be surprising- and your creative writing skills may be impressive but I also find your post very off:annoyed: ensive.

I wonder if this is the same "Ted" Tanner that is affiliated with AEG and the LA Live project? They have had extensive dealings with Marriott lately. I wonder if things are going sour with their relationship (or someone else is sandbagging it here). If you google Ted Tanner (or Theodore Tanner) and Marriott you get a lot of hits where the relationship is mentioned. Here is just one:

http://blogdowntown.com/2011/03/6175-aeg-set-to-announce-new-hotel-next-to-la

In fruther postings the "new hotel next to LA live" was to be a Marriott Courtyard

http://la.curbed.com/archives/2011/..._will_be_marriott_courtyard_residence_inn.php

If this is the same person (and I am only speculating if it really is or was.. it may not be as no details were given), I wonder what the goal the (offensive) rant was even trying to acheive.

I love it, Ted. Tell us more! I think that it's fine to rant as long as we are respectful towards each other. Welcome to TUG...maybe we can help you find solutions to some of the things you are so angry about. Maybe we can't, but please share...you might also be able to help others avoid whatever problems you are having.

one thing is for sure, they will never be accused of being a Marriott sales rep pretending to be a poster!

Troll is a term that comes to mind when we think of the OP. Posting responses only makes it worse.
