I pay for membership so I'll speak my peace (actually, even if I didn't pay, I'd still speak it).
1. It's free. Free to come in, and free to leave. Now THAT'S value.
2. No one is forcing anyone to come here
3. Typical American snobbery (I'm American, too, btw) -- complain about anything and everything, as if the whole world should cater to them as if there's some sense of entitlement
4. There is a lot of noob-bashing. It's bad enough when members do it, but bashing by crew and/or mods is simply unacceptable, and WBW should take action against staff who do this.
5. Like any other "premium" site, you pay a premium for premium content and/or features. Of many of the sites that I've visited in my years since Al Gore invented the internet, you get an incredible amount of content FOR FREE. Yes -- FREE.
6. How about having a monthly recurring charge rather then pay for the whole year? Kinda softens the pain of having to pay a lump sum once a year? Just a suggestion...
7. Unfortunately during this lovely American political season there was plenty of racism/hate/bigotry shown, and some people take offense to it. But, this is not a FREE BLOG site, this is a private website, however, the mods/staff/crew should be encouraged to tone down their remarks (sometimes it sucks having to watch/control what you say when you're in charge.) It's like being management at work: cannot tell you how many times I'd like to REALLY say what's on my mind, but I cannot. Lively discourse is obviously enjoyable, and there have been many lively discussions lately, but there needs to be a bit better control by mods. Just my opinion....
8. I'd be happy to hold the door for dom1211 while he leaves. I don't know him, or anything about him, but if he's so unhappy, I'll help him leave. I don't hate him, but there's no room ANYWHERE for haters.
9. Peace.
10. Oh yeah: where Oh-Canada-Dial-Up on this issue???

Well, I don't check WBW as often as I used to but I still check it every now and then. Mostly for the fun threads and some naked tits.. :P

I've said this before, but it was very long ago; There is only one appropriate response from someone with a free membership here, and that is "Thank you very much!"
FATHERTIME 17 years ago

If you don't like find or Make something better.
For a too long period of time my access to the interweb was through my room mate's computer, and he didn't want any "porn" on his system.
Now I'm back and happy to see any tit I can see.
I vote as often as I can and offer thanks when I see something I like.
If this site isn't something you like maybe it's your fault.
I know it's not the fault of any one who posts here or works here.
