What do you think his user conversion will be if he uses "Free rider who eats resources" verbiage in his pricing page as opposed to "free"

HaHa! The "eats resources" would not be the most friendly approach . . . although framed in the right context, the A/B test might come out different than we expect!

Overall I agree, if all you are saying is that the "free rider who eats resources" phrasing isn't the most customer friendly possible usage, all other things being equal

All I was saying is if he calls trial users "free riders eating resources" on a tech site which we all understand the verbiage and where this comes from.

How will he treat paying customers ? I smell double standards. That's all I am saying.
