I don't see that big gain we get by excluding hundreds of potentially good members because of a couple of bad apples. It's too easy to create accounts and then do the same thing as was done to you and another member here. I was pretty upset that a formal vote was called with no commenting allowed when there had been zero open discussion first. That was a bigger concern for me than the current anon situation. If, after open and honest discussion of the pros and cons, we, as a community, had asked for a vote, then that would have been different. But we were afforded no such opportunity. Without open discussion, I will always vote NO. - El

P.S. I've been HOA for years, but it never seems to get easier and last year was a fiscal nightmare for my HOA and now we have to pay the piper. I have to pay him too and I'm not looking forward to the drain on my savings either, but pay him we must.
