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 villager’s 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.

Roundabouts (could be included in your #2)

General MMP
- Are they golf cart paths
- Which side to walk on
- Should bicycles be allowed
- Golf carts speeding

Dogs in restaurants (or at squares)

Not a fan of dogs in restaurants

No one mentioned "The Developer is greedy and The Villages needs to stop growing!"

What about "they" "promised" 3 movie theaters, and we only have one.

What else did I forget?

You forgot the “kill all the 🐊 gators” strings…

At least no dog poop threads.

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???

Contractors using pool bathrooms.

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%
