With no response so far to my question, I can assume he does not now nor ever has lived in an HOA community. Yet he comments on it with no experience.
To paraphrase, if it walks like a troll, sounds like a troll,…..
I chose not to continue. Yet you needed to push the issue. My past may or may not influence my opinion and does not require me to prove where my opinion originates.
In the case of a technical topic, then some background/experience becomes relevant. Cause I am not afraid to be wrong if people tell me I am wrong and show me my error. I welcome new information and try to learn from it.
Arguing about HOAs fall into the first category. If you don't like what I say, so be it. But commenting on my past without any knowledge would put you in the troll category. Which also does not require me to answer. When everyone else here tells about their past, then I will to. Until then, my commentary is simply my opinion similar to what most post here on non-technical issues.
It is as simple as saying my radio is better than yours. An opinion that does not need an argument as it is simply my opinion. Nor requires any proof.
