Why would anyone want to do such a thing on a public forum? The proper place would be with the source of their frustration. That is where the situation can be corrected.
How about to warn new comers? To give them a fighting chance to know what brands are junk and what brands are good. Thanks to reviews and venting I did not throw my hard earned money away and bought a great brand that will serve me for many years.
Warn "newcomers" of what?
YOUR "perspective" of "quality"?
Your perspective of poor quality may be of the only one choice of the ugly wall covering print for the model you like.
Someone else may "love" that print but hate the layout.
Another one is one person hates a rear kitchen in the only size they want where others may love the rear kitchen but wish it was offered in the model they want.
In reality, the "Bad Brands" that get vented over is the ones that BUILD AND SELL THE MOST RVs.
This in effect skews the whole idea of trying to "warn" newcomers and muddies up the newcomers ideas and they just might totally avoid RVs or ones that they really like because of YOUR "OPINION" of what is "quality" and what is "JUNK".
Using reviews to mold your mind about things is a pretty sketchy way to live your life. It is easy to post shill reviews which run a brand down (competition) or put positive spin (manufacturer padding the happy accounts to gain sales).
Amazon is a good example of how this can get out of control, look around at the reviews, I take the top and best reviews and toss those out and read the MIDDLE REVIEWS. The MIDDLE REVIEWS are where the truth lies, not the worst or best.
Worst and best are way to subjective.
