Some days discussions are more interesting than others.

Of course it’s getting boring. Who wants to listen to the same four posters argue about the same things day in and day out. Then you have a few others that feel compelled to post numerous replies in every single thread. This place was much better when it was actually about The Villages and not current events. There are so many other forums more suited to that.

Just a general observation. Might have something to do with the fear users have of posting the “wrong thing “ and getting scolded or timeout. ———— Sorry I dozed off for a minute there

This may come as a shock to many here, but it is not necessary to read a post you find boring... or even an entire section - Like Current Events.

Please help me out here, because I looked over about 20 threads and I could not find a single thread where an individual posted on every one of them. Maybe, you did, but I think you missed one.

This site mainly caters to TV.
It's a retirement community.
Subjects usually are restaurants, golf, healthcare or complaining about parking, snowbirds and taxes.
If you're looking for more uplifting topics there are plenty of sites on the internet.
