I just laugh it off as coming from uninformed White Knight defenders riding to the rescue of something not really in need of rescuing. No, it had to be said and I'm glad I said it.
Also, no one is stating that it's not a great free service - of course it is, but it doesn't matter how free anything is - if something's not working, people are going to be frustrated and rightfully so. Most hotels offer "complimentary" wi-fi but when the quality of that wi-fi isn't up to snuff, hotel guests are going to complain and again, they have a right to do so. And any high-quality hotel worth its salt will take that complaint very seriously. I've done my share of building up the site (via reviews, posts, donations, etc...) so I don't feel any guilt or griping about the surprisingly large amount of downtime at BGG. But hey, we're off to a great 2013, eh?
