I think December & January weather in The Villages, knocked that off table for a while. It'll be back.

Nothing about how much people don't like Snowbirds or how much they ruin everything with crowds and lack of sophistication / understanding of traffic when "in season?"

Snowbirds should just be required to pay their Amenity Fee & Taxes to support the "one home residents" ... and not show up in The Villages.
We hardly need a whole thread for that subject. Those 15-20 words say it all.

Bikes, and why are they entitled to ignore any and all stop signs. No worries on speed limits, or driving between car lanes at stoplight to get to the front, to slow everyone to a snails pace.

You forgot blowing through/around an entry gate with limited visibility from the MMP crossing at full speed where a golf cart can only see if the gate is up or down. Kind of like cycling Russian roulette. The gates are there for a reason!

I love these kinds of threads. Love reading villagerās thoughts about TV, and their personal experiences here, both good and not so good.

On my drive home I always pass a house with a sign of a dog doing its thing warning not to poop on their lawn.
I always thought it was cute, but they should also add to the sign that there are cameras focused on the area.
These cameras are so cheap these days, if I had that problem, I would install one.
Maybe that would make these people think twice.

Actually, it doesn't make the top ten, but there are threads about people posting without reading what has come before.
Can anyone find a post that fits that bill???

Cars and golf carts going 40 MPH in a 20 MPH residential zone. And how to drive in roundabouts. And bicycles not stopping at stop signs.

Along those lines, here are two quotes from 2 different posters on the TOTV improvement thread:
"I would say it should be incumbent on the reader to take the time to scroll AND page to see what others have said. If you aren't willing to read what others have written then why do you expect others to read what you are about to write?"
"If you're in a hurry, maybe read faster or learn to skim? Or don't read a thread at all until you know you have time to dedicate to reading it."
I AGREE 110%

I am guilty. If just starting a long thread I do not read the entire thing before posting. Have to consider this in the future.

I'll go to 120%.
Probably won't ever happen. People are too lazy and think their comment is too important, to waste time reading everyone else's and delaying their words for 3 minutes.
