I have been able to get a great deal of useful information from TOTV in the 2 years I have lived in The Villages. For that reason, I intend to continue to read the posts nearly every day.
What I have noticed is that there are a few posters who frequently post comments which they believe are humorous. Once one of these post appears in a thread, it is not uncommon for a few more posts to be reactions to the "humorous" post and the original topic gets abandoned unless someone gets the discussion back on track. If it is a topic that I am interested in I find it frustrating to see these off-topic posts.
It has been suggested that one can block the posters if you do not want to read their posts. The problem with that is that some of their posts are on topic and quite informative. I don't want to lose the ability to read them.
Finally, when someone attempts to make a humorous post, they may want to keep in mind that not everyone shares their sense of humor. Just because some may comment that they think it is funny, does not necessarily mean that they are speaking for the majority of TOTV readers.
I apologize if I have offended anyone, but I wanted to express my opinion for whatever it is worth.
