Doesn't make any difference to me. I saw the post about it in the other thread.

Although, if it's going to stay this way, I'd change the wording on the index to let visitors know they need to register to view all content.

Paying dues is NEVER a priority here. That had nothing to do with it.
Please see this thread for the details. I'm sure Carm will be along to give his side of the story as well...

Coming from a habitual lurker (I check the board about 4-5 times a day), I don't mind the privateness one bit.  Just means that I have to log in more often to show that I'm still alive.

"I'm thinking I might change the board settings so that people must log in to view the board, or see if I can at least limit the number of guests to 10 or so. It's not quite right that members are having problems so spam bots can troll the board..."

Seems a very good explanation to me.

It's a temporary situation. I've found a script that will block guests out only when board server loads are high (it won't block them out entirely, it'll simply limit their numbers to give priority to members), it's just a matter of installing and configuring it. Should be installed by the weekend - I've just been seriously busy and have a ed 'flu on top of that.
