When I joined the other side, I'd quite literally read something and say to myself:
"That one thing was worth the $$ I paid." That happened too many times & I've stopped counting.

Other highlights:

No Google Update Thread
Fewer me-too posts
Fewer newbie-ask-the-same-questions-that's-covered-in-the-Google-Knowledge-base posts
Fewer I'm-too-lazzy-to-use-the-search posts
Better networking opportunities
Members sharing some useful personal/professional background info
Better quality recommendations on products/services
Ability to use specific urls, keywords... when needed
Closed to spiders & the occasional nosey client
No lurkers, just active posters

Best ROI I got on any investment on the web.
