Community standard is not staffed to do this.

My wife and I refer to ourselves as rule obeyers. That said, we would never troll neighborhoods looking for rule violations to report. So I find this kind of conduct rather disheartening. Do trolls obey all rules? Do they come to a complete stop at stop signs in a golf cart in a neighborhood? Do they never exceed the 20 mph golf cart or any speed limit? Do they ever make a rolling stop in a car? Do they always use their blinkers when changing lanes? How would a troll feel if someone followed them to report any traffic violations? It really is the same principle. I just can not understand the mentality of why someone would want to do that? A feeling of power by a disgruntled person who has none?

We need pictures and videos of these Sasquatch Trolls to prove they exist.

I tend to agree. Yes, everyone should abide by the deed restrictions they agreed to, and yes, the system allows for anonymous complaints. However, it just seems fundamentally wrong for miserable people with nothing better to do travel from village to village and report what they perceive to be violations when it in no way affects them. If there is a problem, it is those directly affected with having to see it or worry about property values---the neighbors---to report it, not some old biddies. Even though the end result may be the same, it just seems different---kind of like getting a speeding ticket because a LEO pulled you over vs. getting one in the mail because a traffic cam caught you. And to those that have defended these trolls, ask yourself----would you arm these "ladies" with a radar gun and camera and let them report traffic violations?

that you don't think those two ladies are doing what others wish they'd do. Anybody that thinks people that want to hold people accountable for their actions are bad are the actual problem. I'd rather have "busybodies"(otherwise known as responsible citizens)doing what they do than have people ignore the rules, regs or deed restrictions that we all agreed to when they moved here.

The people that ignore the restrictions are self serving, egotistical and narcissistic. They could care less about anyone else.


You go two ladies and anyone else with the cajones to help enforce the regs. Most of us know by now that if someone doesn't point out a house that steps over the line that is set that nothing will be done.

If a person or people don't like it....move.

Photos or it didn't happen. You do carry a phone with a camera don't you ? You'd think a photo of BigFoot or the Loch Ness monster or the 2 infamous never seen live before gray haired ladies in a golf cart with a clipboard would prompt a live video and dozens of photos.

Or maybe it was just 2 ladies driving in a golf cart on a nice day? Or is this just another click-bait topic? Yep, this should be good for another 100+ posts!

We sadly tend to think the worst of people. We just had our home painted. Rather than trying to deal with color swatches, we drove around in our golf cart and made notes of homes we liked. A red golf cart-yup. A guy and a gal. No clip board-index cards.

Beware, we will be out again wife wants to have the drive painted.

Sadly, some people have to much time on their hands.

Far as minding each others business. Years ago I met an elderly disabled lady, who was wheelchair bound. Some neighbors issued several complaints that her wheelchair ramp needed paint. Another neighbor came over with a grill and had volunteers paint her ramp after asking her for permission.

All, including the TROLLS if they exist should wonder.

I am not religious but the bible says something like let he without guilt cast the first stone. I will bet those two IF THEY exist could find something at your place.

Beware of what you wish for.

Our neighborhood social club sponsors a scavenger hunt every couple of years in different neighborhoods. Great fun and a way to learn about different villages.

I am a new Villager and the idea of a Scavenger Hunt sounds awesome!!

It takes NO cajones to anonymously inform on someone.

I have no problem complying with the restrictions. If a neighbor doesn't like what someone had done to their yard that violates codes and they report it, I have no problem with that. If no one in the neighborhood has a problem with it, then it isn't the concern of anyone else.
