It says more about you that you take a non-club issue and try to use it against the club than it does about the club.

I'm not saying you are wrong about everything you say, but there was no reason to bash the CCC. I get it, you don't want to be a member. You seem quite bitter about it, though. Although the club could use more members, you are free to join or not, and that's fine.

Personally, I find that it's a fun hobby and I really enjoy the vast majority of the chip collectors I come in contact with. Focus on the fun and you may have a better time.
