    Well, haven't they just made SocialRewards a complete pain in the behind :(

    Instead of everything for each 'casino' appearing on one single page, you now have to tab through to specific sections within each casino :(

    ...tedious :/

    They did that sometime last night - yesterday early pm it was unchanged.

    This morning, as you say, requires a click through to each section within the casino page.

    Although annoying it has speeded up the page loading so maybe that's the reason for it.

    So annoying indeed!! Any negligible load-time decreases has been negated by having to click 6 times on each casino rather than quickly scrolling down to see if they're any new shares available!

    The cynic in me feels that SocialRewards has probably got quite popular (like MyVegas) and they are looking for ways to slow down (and perhaps put off) people who are after Vegas freebies!

    Can you not hold down the "Ctrl" key and open all the casino in new tabs, rather than go back and fourth? - I don't use social rewards so wouldn't know.

  • Perhaps we should start a new thread on Social Rewards, and all who use it could subscribe to it. Then we could post when there are new points available. Would save us all looking all the time. We would then only need to watch our own countdowns, as we would get email alerts when someone discovers new ones.

  • Well, that's us finally booked for September 2014. We fly out to Phoenix on the 5th. We will stay a couple of nights in Scottsdale, then drive over to the Canyon. Probably stay one night in Sedona or Flagstaff, then over to Laughin for one more night. Then up to Vegas on the 9th (which is my 40th OMG). Need to soften the blow somehow!

    Don't want to alarm you,but our first trip to vegas was for my 40th.
    Had 8 trips since then,and looking to book for first half of next year.


    Oh....the alarming part....it doesn't seem like five minutes since that first visit in 2004....this next trip will be for my 50th.:eek:
    And I worried about turning 40 :sad:

    My first trip was the year I was 40. Not for my birthday, just a trip. I'm currently in Vegas on my 23rd trip, 13 years later.
