After you've been a RVer long enough to do your first RV dump, you'll know exactly what the this poster meant. :S
That said, Camp-in-family, ignorance, willful or otherwise, of RV system usage is not just an affliction of renters. In my 14 yrs of FTing, camping 24/7/365, I can't tell you how many times, just talking about "poop issues" I've seen a total disregard for a sanitary process amongst all types of RVers. It is not just limited to using the "poop flushing hose" for filling ones fresh water tank. Folks will put their actual poop discharge hose directly over and around the fresh water tap on their site and flush their hose onto the ground never minding the transfer that may occur when the next camper attaches their fresh water hose to the tap's contaminated threads.
A total disregard as someone unloads their poop discharge hose from their basement and throws it on the picnic table or their neighbor's located on the utility side, till they're ready to finish hookups.
Bleach is your friend. When getting a new to you RV, disinfect your tank. When hooking up to a water tap, spray the tap with a bleach solution.
OP, my V10 doesn't have 100,000 miles yet but it appears to my non mechanic senses that it is a workhorse of an engine.
