I take offense when my policies are called "asinine" because that is saying I make asinine decisions. I find the word "asinine" to offense. Funny that these forums feel that the use of the word "Geezer" is offensive enough to close the thread yet allow posts where people are calling the actions of others "asinine". People are free to make any decision they want, and if those decisions don't cause actual harm to some one or some thing I would never consider those decisions to be asinine.

Pray tell the address of your park so I can avoid being hosted by such an aggressive, crass and, frankly, boring individual as yourself. You seem to be the kind of chap that has wonderful grassy sites in your park and then walks around yelling "Get off my lawn!!!!"
The melted tables, burned trashcans etc. you mention are, undoubtedly, the facts of life in your business. A smart person factors in such damage to the price of their sites per night. That's a good business model. Your business model appears to be keep the price down sufficiently to attract punters in and then when they get there they find the camp is more of a concentration camp because you have a million silly little rules designed to save/make you money while sucking the very life out of them.
I work diligently to avoid things like melted tables to keep my expenses in check. Any costs due to damage is eventually passed on to all the guests in the form of higher rates. So it is in the best interests of the vast majority of my guests to prevent those damages and costs. It is pretty apparent you are one of those people who feel that paying a site fee allows you to do whatever you want, damaging property included, and let the costs incurred be borne by the park owner and future guests. My policies are constructed to specifically exclude such guests be it either by them making the decision to go elsewhere or by using those rules to send them packing. Thanks to your post, I bet a few more people will see the wisdom of those policies.
