Does this mean we can't rent out points at National Harbor?

You manage to share your political leanings on almost every thread. I have been on this board for many years, and I do not know the leanings of most of the contributors. Why do you feel the need to make these references on a timeshare board,you have since your first posts.

I second this, I was one of probably several people that flagged your blatant political post.

We like that TUG discussions are free of political BS, there are plenty of places on the interwebs for that.

Please read the TUG posting rules and abide by them.

Your point is well taken!

My only defense is that it could be a subconscious reaction to the constant bombardment I feel on a daily basis! But, I agree, my reaction to that bombardment doesn't belong here on TUG BBS!

But I am not ashamed of my political leaning and I have no problem if you came to know of it! As long as I don't get beaten for it which seems to be condoned or even encouraged these days! Enough said!

What you call "constant bombardment" was because of the way you came crashing in to TUG with a know-it-all attitude and throwing insults around. Just sayin'.

Lighten up and I think you'll find the board less hostile.

@chapjim, You misunderstand me. I am not talking about TUG BBS. Bombardment elsewhere that is ubiquitous and threatening that I could get beaten if I wear a hat to show my support! So un-American!

@chapjim,

Thank you for your helpful reply.

I have played around with Access in its early versions in the 90s. But, for anything beyond basic stuff, it was tedious coding. I never could use it for business, too much effort! But, then when you're used to a Ferrari like Oracle or MS SQLServer, it's tough to get used to a Vega! I have just bought Office 360 subscription. I will check out the lastest Access. But my son doesn't use any of this in his Cloud Services work. So, I will ask him if there's a better technology to use.

Airbnb has a lot of analytics for the hosts. I haven't looked at it in depth. Their fee seems comparable. There's no listing fee. Only commission on completed rentals.

In Wyndham terms, it's "Quiet."

Dead and cold. If you want warmer weather in Jan go to southern FL. I was in Destine about 2 years ago 1st week of Dec. It was the 50's not many places open also. Last week I was in Palm Shores on Singer Isand it was mid to high 70's

My son and his GF checked into Sea Gardens in Pompano Beach today! They have signed him up to attend a presentation tomorrow at Royal Vista

Curious as to how much time they had to commit for the gift they received? 60 minutes, 90 minutes or 120 minutes? And, how long did they actually stay? Reason for my question is that my Son and DIL are going to Midtown NYC on a GC from my account. They'd probably go if the commitment was only 60 minutes, just to learn just to learn about this thing that Mom/Dad own/use/like. They'd NEVER buy, of course!!!

LOL never say never. Thousands buy that never intended to purchase.

With MY son and DIL, I think never will apply. They are VERY focused on saving versus spending.

Yes, I did. My apologies!

I'll PM the rest so as not to get busted again.

My son was stutter texting me throughout the presentation! He said he was taking notes on Whatsapp!
Tour started at 9:00 am. His first text about this late-breaking news of 'Michael Brown new CEO of Wyndham' started at 6:22 am. He called me at 10:35 am.

So, 90 minutes for $75!

But with the newfound knowledge that my deeds are worthless compared to CWA.
I will only qualify for Legend with my 1.1 Million points, a number she pulled out of thin air!
If he buys 400k CWA at $97k to go to Founder, she will try hard to get them to take back my Grand Desert 420k points.
The rest of my stuff is garbage, 84k WBC can book just 2 nights! Waikiki is no good. Flagstaff FW, forget it!
Smh!

The Whatsapp thread is so funny! I will share it later!

translation - she makes no commission without a sale / next presentation - what you own will still be worthless TO SALES .(if you don't buy) .
LOL

I would not recommend attending the NY45 presentation. It will take longer than 90 minutes for sure. 2 to 3 hours minimum with a team of at least 4 people taking a shot at you relentlessly!

I wish I had learnt from @bobinmich about a bear's bathroom habits before I attended! Haha!

If they have never attended TS presentations before, it's akin to getting thrown in the deep end of the pool to learn swimming with no lifeguards around! Not worth the risk! Start with a mellow low-pressure site!

Time spent and the relentless shakedown is not worth the measly reward. They didn't give out Amex cards when we attended in May. You get much better deals on SightseeingPass, Groupon etc.

What are the maps for dog poop? We have laws in Ohio where you must pickup if your dog poops.

SF has a homeless population, and others have created maps to let SF residents and tourists know where human poop is.

Why do you dislike your Grand Desert? GD has cheap MF.

[7:19 AM] Son: Interesting the print out said 1.1m

[7:20 AM] Son: The way I understand it now, these deeds aren’t worth it dad. But I’m still new to understanding it
[7:20 AM] Son: I’ll give you a ring after I get the “expert recommendation”

[7:21 AM] Dad: Bring the printout! 917k points. 84k from smoky mountains has yet to show up.
[7:22 AM] Dad: Are they saying our deeds are not worth it?
[7:25 AM] Dad: What about the $94 million app?

[7:26 AM] Son: Yes because we don’t have CWA inventory
[7:27 AM] Son: I will try to explain what I understand shortly
[7:27 AM] Son: They want 97k for 400k points
[7:27 AM] Son: Hahaha this is the new sales strategy, it’s not aggressive
[7:27 AM] Son: They give you a recommendation with what the sale would be and you follow up with them
[7:28 AM] Son: Mobile app is coming in 2 years

[7:29 AM] Dad: 2 years? So dumb! By the time it comes out, it will be outdated. Like MS ASP.

I kind of like @SNA27. His first post blaming liberals for the right of rescission was hilarious.

........ I was in Destin about 2 years ago 1st week of Dec. It was the 50's not many places open......

Destin Florida: 65 F / 7pm Sunday Dec 15th .

Duluth Minn 7F
Minneapolis 12F
Winnipeg 11 F
Edmonto 24 F

Destin looks pretty warm in comparison.

Isn't Destin and PCB in the same vicinity? 50 miles from each other?

When's the best time to visit Banff? My wife has been wanting to visit for a long time. I want to use my 210k RCI points expiring in August 2020.

Btw, why's St. Hippolyte wide open? All the way to September 2020! But Ontario is not!! All 3 are affiliate resorts!

I agree -
SNA27's first post was like a "Gordie Howe Hat trick"

The thread also led the TUG Wyndham Forum in activity over Thanksgiving weekend 2019
159 posts / 7 pages .

That's about right -- an hour's drive on US 98.
