Looking at the response I get in the GC.com forums, there doesn’t seem to be public support for a discussion on the matter.

Interesting post with many good/important questions. Some points hit right on the nail, others I do not follow (completely). Having experienced such nation wide “problems” from very near, I have thus a good sense of how it is: heavy critic gunfire, “why did we do so obvious mistakes ?”, frustration from customers, etc…

It would be an interesting discussion topic if we meet in the field or at an event. Especially around a glass of beer.

Craig,

Happy to see that you agree with me. I though that I (together with some BE members) was (were) the only voice (crying) in the wilderness.
I have nothing against raising the fee as long as we get (a lot) more in return than the current members get for the moment.

I’m with you. If the overall gc.com experience had been great I’d probably be more apt to just let it slide. But overall performance has been slow, which is something that as a paid subscriber annoys me.

I don’t really agree with the option to raise the fees. Hasn’t it gone up every year for the last couple years as it is? Maybe it just seems like it. Service has just gotten worse as the popularity increases. They just aren’t scaling the site good enough.

I don’t think anyone pissed in your cornflakes. Or maybe it’s just that someone pissed in mine too. Either way, I feel the same as you.

Major props for the post. GC.com needs to get their crap together. Now is the perfect time for the next best thing to swoop in for the kill.
