Used to be very helpful/reliable for suggestions for honest trades people, and yes, we'd meet in person at Crispers in the Publix plaza on 466, always on Fridays. It's changed a lot, especially how if ones asks for a recommendation to have something done, now seems it's more paid recommendations (??), or false recommendations from made up sources. Don't know, maybe not, but the whole "tone", the way people communicated with others changed.. guess everything does.
Some of the people I met in 2007 at Crispers are still on here but seldom post any more. From what I understand they are on Facebook sharing with their Friends on there about stuff.

Unfortunately, many from TOTV in 2007 passed away.
