Commodore just had a rant about our club website, someone had a go at her about last saturdays results not being uploaded, this from a member who turns up half a dozen times a year.

obviously i have no clue as to the actual words said or tone they were imparted with but you have to be careful, just because someone who only turns up half a dozen times doesn't mean their opinion about the site not being updated isn't valid, probably the opposite, as you want to engage those people so they do come down, they need a link to their pastime.

Fully agree with Oli. Even if people are unhelpful and rude, you have to ignore it and try to deliver. While the loud rude people will tell you the issue, you can guarantee that there will be a whole load of people too polite or nervous to mention it who all have the same view.
If you want people to join your class/club you have to bend over backward for them, not ignore them because they never help out.

Only benefit from these fly by members is they pay subs, issue is when one of them is discovered to have amassed a collection of a dozen boats.
