Default Why do guests complain?

Not trying to start an argument here..

Just wondering. IF you are browsing a site, that you pay NOTHING to be a member over (guest status). Why do you feel it is necessary to complain about its performance?

That's like me going to your party and complaining about the watered down drinks, and still drink them

Makes no sense that they don't pay and then complain. I have been a member for over 4 yrs and hardly ever complain about this site. I complain more about internet speed than anything else.

To play devil's advocate here, this is the first web forum I've ever had to pay to be a member of and the only reason I did was so I could sell some parts. I guess I don't mind the 20 bucks since I'm on here now daily, but still, I posted for a number of months before joining.

Because they can? I do know some peeps who were members and went back to guest status for various reasons. They aren't complainers, though, at least not online. Well, except for the ones who were surprised to receive the status suddenly with no notice.

You don't "have" to pay but I think they appreciate it if you do. I think they put a lot of time and effort running the site and sure it doesn't always run flawlessly they do seem to fix it when it breaks quickly.

$20 is no big deal and I don't mind paying it. I get a lot more than that back in information and entertainment. It's about half a tank of gas or a crappie movie for two a year. I've laughed to the point of tears because of some of the things that go on here more than once. Money well spent

some guests add much more value than the 20.00 fee

this is a "community" and PAID membership is NOT required to belong
