Definitely - members' areas are often the poor cousin of the shopfront anyway, so if the tour is broken, it doesn't bode well for the standard of what you see when signed up.

Sometimes. Not a good sign if they don't care about you even before you've paid. A good review here might overrule that though.

If they can't get things right on a tour then it usually doesn't bode well for the site.

I will go along with what the other responders have said. A poor tour is a sign of a poor members area.

The site's tour is the most important part of the decision. That's what first attracts me. If it looks tempting with interesting updates, I then look it up on Porn Users and get information from The Best Porn. THEN I make the decision.
It's hard to believe people join sites with no decent tour or a poor one when there are so many great sites out there.

I've seen enough decent tours for shit sites that a tour with such problems should be seen as a warning. I said, "Definitely."
But that's not to mean "always." If reliable reviewers praise the site, then the funky store front stuff might not mean much. It could just be a fluke.

I'm with the majority here. If the tour pages are bad, then I'm not apt to open my wallet.
This is only partly related to the poll, but one thing that always bugs me and makes me less likely to join is not being able to see what is inside before I join. We've all seen sites where the tour is maybe two or three pages and the next click is right into the join page. I give full marks to sites like Videobox who allow you to see EVERYTHING they have to offer so you can make an informed decision.

I agree with everyone that says that it doesn't bode well when the tour page is broken.

If they're broken once I'll try again later just in case the site is having temporary problems or if it's a problem with my internet connection - but if other sites are fine so I know it's not my computer or connection, and it's consistently down for a couple of days, I would forget it - if they can't get their tour pages right I don't trust their paid-for content either.
If I really liked the look of a site I'd bookmark it and try it a few days later, but if they haven't sorted it out in a week or so I wouldn't join. I'd never join from a page with broken pics - they'd have to be fixed first and I'd be extra careful checking reviews here and on TBP too.

I answered "Definitely." Same reasons already mentioned. But being adventuresome, if the price is right I'll occasionally still give a site with a screwed up preview just because I like the babe.
Deciding if the "price is right" is where I use the Supersized Big Mac
method. If the cost of a site is about what the price of a Supersized Big Mac is, I rationalize by paying for the site. It's better for my waistline and, who knows, I might catch a great site.
BTW, never happened. I've snagged a few good downloads but have never found a true sleeper this way.

Pretty much agree with what others have said, if the tour doesn't work properly i'd be pretty unlikely to reach for my credit card.

If "broken images", you mean that the site doesn't appear to work - well, hell yeah, that's going to stop me from joining pretty much all the time.

I honestly can't recall ever having seen broken images on a tour, but I guess if I did that would probably not be a good indicator of quality.

I haven't come across any broken pictures myself but if I did, yes, I would distrust the site and not subscribe.
And I'm with rearadmiral's aside: there are far too many sites that won't even give you a sample. Just a page or two advertising what they have inside and then the join page. This loathsome practice is especially prevalent in mature sites and has stopped me effectively from subscribing to many of them.
