I think reviewing the comments and threads on TOTV really sealed my conviction to move to the Villages. I wonder if that was the case for many people. I hope TH and the Morrises know what a great sales tool this probably is for them. Did anyone else feel that way?

TOTV was also a major factor in the plus column for us....

Yes, same with me! TOTV absolutely sealed the deal with me making my decision to move to TV. If it werent for TOTV and reading all the excellent advice, tips and research and meeting such wonderful people and becoming great friends....I know I would have never made this move.
Now I am on my way to TV in a month, packing it all up, not even doing the visit thats how sure I am....and I owe it all to TOTV and great friends!!

Awwww Jeanne..You say the sweetest things!!!!!!!!!

[KathieI]

Me too.... Meeting the people in person on my second trip, sealed the deal!! Having these wonderful best friends is all I needed and I owe it ALL to TOTV.

Donna/Nonie/Bare/Barb/Mom2five, etc remember the first meeting..??? It was the icing on the cake (not the cake that almost killed Redwitch that was actually the 2nd get together, LOL).. Love ya all, thanks for making my life complete.

Yes, most definitely. It allowed me and the wife to do a vast amount of research to come up with our choice to buy and retire in TV.
And after hearing the history between TV and TOTV, I can not undersatnd why TV has a non-support agenda. TOTV tells the good, bad, and ugly. Things we need to make an informed educated choice.

TOTV was an important factor is our buying. We visited but were still uncertain until I found TOTV and felt reassured that my feelings regarding this wonderland were indeed real and shared by others. This morning we were riding in our cart and commenting on how truly blessed we are to be living her. My brother in law who lives in California would make fun of our living in a retirement community with silly golf carts scampering all over the place. Well, he came for a visit and was mesmerized by the quality of life as well as the beauty of the place and now he's a big fan and wants to return
ASAP. Unfortunately he has to get in line.

I agree. We try to be a good neighbor and supporter of The Villages. TOTV wants to support The Villages and what it has to offer.

[Ceafolks]

I agree with Jeanne and Kathie. And I bought a week ago today.

TOTV greatly influenced our decision. We had visited several times but the in-depth discussions affirmed our choice. No second guessing after we made the decision. do not understand why the developer does not recognize and promote the forum.

I moved here July 07 and joined TOTV August 07 so TOTV did not influence our move to The ********. However, TOTV has helped me make decisions on just about everything. This website has helped us find doctors, a dentist and has influence our decisions on all our home upgrades (solar tubes, gutters,
garage screen, to name a few). I have learned so much helpful info via this site. I love reading about restaurants and day trips. I check this site when I want/need to find out anything pertaining to The ********. I would be lost without it!

I can honestly say that I never found TOTV until after we had made the decision to move here. I cant believe that anyone would base a life altering decision on the writings of a bunch of anonymous chatters. To give credit where credit is due, TOTV is a valuable tool in the transition.

I would not call people that I have met in person "Anonymous Chatters", I call them friends.They may be that to you because you have not had the pleasure of meeting them. Many of the posters stated that TOTV was a factor not the only factor in helping them with their decision to move to The Villages.

I think most people have not met TOTVers until after they made their decisions. That does not mean everyone. Please accept my appology if I offended you.
