Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

my guess would be that those loyal customers are the least likely to leave, so u can squeeze as much as u like out of them.
new customers u wanna attract more of, so treat them better and they will come to u.
those who leave and come back for the discount are probably not a meaningful enough size for a company to even think about.
id say this is definitely an effect of this behaviour, but i doubt its intentional. a company doesnt care abt anything but profits, so they dont care abt the impact of their actions beyond that
