Because if they posted their position...just like when you are a parent..if you open your mouth and tell a kid what to do...you had better be ready to take it on.
Which in the case of The Villages may mean just about anything including having someone sue you, hit you, or God knows what.
My opinion of the rule makers here are that they just try to stay out of confrontations. The signs would take a bit of the warm cozy out of the squares if you look at it from their point of view.
It is not just here in The Villages that these things happen. Saving seats is an accepted behavior in some parts of the country and people bring it with them.
You cannot legislate fair dealings. People are sometimes selfish and uncaring and will find a way to get around any rules or signs.
