What's up w/ forums locking guests out of viewing threads? (WTF rant of the week)

[lincpimp]

I shall add to your rant with one of my own pet peeves...

I hate it when I am at work fixing something and some "genius customer" asks me if what I am doing works... Would I be doing it is it did not work??? WTF is wrong with these people? I just want to give them "the look" and ask if they really think I am out in the shop doing things wrong for fun??? Or maybe it looks like I have no idea what I am doing, maybe I should stop wearing the chicken suit to work...

In any case that pisses me off to no end. I think most people just need to stop and think about the verbal diarrhea that is about to squirt out...
