this is an honest, legit question, which i hope doesn’t ruffle any feathers…i often see people recommend to use a board sponsor if they want to be cautious…why is that?…are sponsors somehow vetted, in addition to i assume providing financial support to the site?

we will be using a site sponsor on our next trip…i learned of them from the sponsors list, although there are very few comments on this board regarding them, and comments about them on other sites are less than perfect…but we’ve used quite a few rental companies in SXM, and have never had a bad experience, so we’re willing to also give this company a try
