Earlier this week I wrote about the point driven AR junkie (nothing wrong with that) who is diligent and makes their 10 comments a day and 10 posts per week...
Just how many points can they earn in a year?
There were 3 choices.
The reason for the post is that I've seen a few members surge well beyond the maximum awardable points by AR and simply wondered 1) How they manged to beat the system? 2) Is that a character trait...a win at any cost mentality? and 3) Why hasn't the fairly good customer service technical staff discovered the highly unusual accumulation of points in a relatively short period of time by system abusers?
I find AR a great platform for sharing ideas, systems and referrals. I hurts me to see that a few people choose it to drive their ego rather than see it as another community they can thrive in by being creative and ethical.
Thank you for making me Your Orange County Real Estate Connection.

If you are unaware of this tragedy you can read it here. 13 were killed and 31 injured during this shooting rampage at the nation's largest military facility. So I am asking to keep the victims and their families in your prayers. We are so fortunate to have people like this who have signed up to fight for OUR freedom while we remain safe at home. It is even more sickening that this has happened on our soil, by a fellow citizen. God Bless.
