In many of the threads here, we have posters who say they oppose new rules to curb commercial renting of WM units because they impact the "flexibility" of the Club.
So I would like to hear some real world accounts of how members have had their personal usage of the Club impacted by the rule changes the BoD has made to date.
Off the bat there are two rule changes that come to mind - closing the grouped reservations loophole that was being used to defeat the 13th month booking window. That rule change was designed to level the playing field, and made booking a grouped reservation more difficult - but still possible.
The 2nd change is obviously the introduction of the guest certificate. Which does not prevent guest usage, it just taxes it.
So I would like to get some indicator on how the rule changes have impacted your ownership.
If they have not - feel free to chime in so we can get a rough and wholly unscientific measure of the ratio of the impact.
The only caveat here is that I would ask that you limit it to actual impact, not theoretical.
