It is easy to find many violations.
Basically, who cares?
NAR membership retains little significance other than the requirement for members to pay dues.

I just don't get bothered by it. But I don't think the rules are different, it has to the follow the name of a member.

I can't imagine that it has. Probably the NAR is just busy trying to figure out how to make more money off us rather than paying attention to protecting us.
