I think the original post was an abuse of this forum...as do a lot of others...but I question why, after making the decision to remove the original post and threads, YOU REPEAT THE ORIGINAL POST ALMOST VERBATIM???? DUH...Why did you remove it and then QUOTE it? You just RE-Posted it!!
You asked for a vote on whether or not to allow commercialism on this site. My vote is absolutely NOT. IF Properties of The Villages wish to advertise their homes for sale or their latest incentives then they need to PAY YOU for advertising space, just like someone using them as their Realtor must PAY THEM for THEIR services. This is only fair.
I would, however, like to suggest that there be a special forum for members to list items for sale in or to offer services to barter. There is a lot of talent here in TV and I would be willing to sew for someone who offered a service that I was in need of. Do you know what I mean? If someone has golf clubs for sale or a set of pots and pans...I personally think this would be a good way to do it. Perhaps you could charge a nominal fee for this service like say a $10.00 one time insertion fee. It would sure take away a lot of income to the Daily Sun Classifieds...who charge an arm and a leg for advertising and then won't let YOU put one in for TOTV. I would also like to see a Forum specifically for FSBO homes. This too could be a nominal one time insertion fee.
