AARP OWES THIS TO ITS MEMBERSHIP

AARP is a membership association. 

 

Membership fees are the fuel that keeps the association's engine running.

 

As such, this association should be transparent as to the make-up of its engine parts.

 

That said, MODERATORS for the AARP forums should be identified as member fees do pay their salaries. Transparency of this type would assure members that MODERATORS hold no agenda and are truly neutral in all subject matter in which AARP is involved.

    NC @nctarheel , I maybe wrong (probably am/lol  😂) - I "think" ALL of the AARP Consumercare Team @AARPConsumerCare are NOW "moderating" this AARP Community Board.

     

    NO more "dedicated" moderator(s) as we had over the years.

     

    As we all know, 2025 brought some "changes" & it seems a TEAM now handles things.

     

    Take care,

    Nicole!

    While they may call themselves a team, a decision maker still proffers their decisions.

     

    Even if they are a team, my premise doesn't change, @SummerOnTheWay1 .

     

    As our fees pay their salaries, there should be transparency to insure that our fees to the NON-PROFIT are being used in a manner that guarantees that all members are shielded from MODERATOR's personal agendas if they exist.

    NC @nctarheel , yes, my biz is all over Google and I am NOT happy.

     

    As far as the Community Board AARP Employees, I "think" it is done to keep them safe. Alot of crazies out there online.

     

    You could NOT pay me to deal with the public in person anymore. Way too many employees getting attacked by disgruntled folks. 😱

     

    Take care,

    Nicole!
