We used to be able to give our opinions of teachers and we used to be able to see if certain teachers were bad choices. Even if there were some students that made terrible comments, we'd just ignore them and be on our way with our happy little reviews of the teachers we're gonna pick for our courses. Now, this website is absolutely useless due to the fact that they basically erased their entire database of reviews, and due to the fact that we can't see other people's comments on them. At first, they made the terrible decision to remove the teacher's power to comment. Teachers then couldn't respond to constructive criticism OR wrongful criticism. Then, there were students that publicly shamed teachers by taking advantage of that. Good job RMT! Instead of requiring an account to review teachers and to comment and instead of banning those accounts that were verbally abusing teachers, they completely removed all reviews because they couldn't make a better decision sooner! This website used to have some good and some bad. But, in the end, this whole website turned into a dumpster fire because of one terribly late but also terrible decision.

Also, even if people start making reviews and it comes back to life, their attempt at removing biased reviews turned into a forced set of specific questions that you'd answer. What is this, censorship? Even if your reviews come back, no one's going to know any useful details about the teacher.

For crying out loud, even the teacher search bar disappears at times. The revamped website has terrible design, the old one was old but still very well made and compact. I think the business decision behind revamping the website was because they didn't see that they already had something great, they just needed to put extra effort to find a solution to bad students saying bad things. Now it looks like the front page was a pre-made website from a free website-making service. Good job guys, this website is terrible now.
