In earlier posts, I have suggested that those critics who think that the class action against the Developer was unjustified can cleanse their consciences by refunding, to the Developer, their prorata share of the settlement proceeds. To the best of my knowledge, none of the critics has done so.

I am of the belief that this place would be just as good if not better without this lawsuit. I see that as this place has grown, it gets better, as the knowledge of just what is best is presented, it is added. If the developers were greedy we would see evidence of it. I personally think this is an impossible situation that is working wonderfully well and I am hoping the developers will stay and build until I die for that very reason.
And I say that some of this attitude against the developer is somewhat politically motivated because of his large contributions to one of the political parties. One of the posters very involved in this discussion has placed a notice of local meeting for the political party that was not given the large contributions.
