Please take a moment and read the information below.

Some of the issues we've been encountering lately are:

Be civil, no personal attacks, flaming, or insults. We may attack ideas (politely) but we do not attack the speaker of the idea. Be careful with your words, there is a point where being direct crosses a line into blunt, in-your-face hostility. Please, report bad posts instead of engaging in flame wars on the boards. Insulting another member or a moderator will not be tolerated anywhere on this website. This includes Direct Messages and Reputation Comments.

Our opinions on a location or issue are just that, opinions. Highly subjective. Personal preferences. Quirks, even. Leave wiggle room for dialogue, others may not see things the same as you, or been there as long as you, and any one of us can be wrong. Pouncing on someone you disagree with runs contrary to the spirit of this board and its members. We are here to help each other.


Staying on Topic: A little off-topic here and there is fine, but let's not abandon the Original Post entirely

Hijacking Threads: Asking for clarification is okay, but inserting your own inquiries into someone else's thread is considered hijacking - just start your own new thread instead (don't forget to provide details so we can properly answer your question! )

Advertising: We have specific rules for realtors you can find in the TOS. If you're not a realtor but you want to sell your own home, you can list in the Classifieds but not on Sarasota-Bradenton-Venice forum.

If you haven't done so already, please be sure to read the City-Data Terms of Service if you read nothing else.

You won't be able to post to this thread, but if you have any questions, feel free to Direct Message me (just click on my screen name).

Thanks Everyone!
