after finishing with a lapper i wound up going to the bathroom. through the door i heard two guys talking. one loudly said to the other,"that guy? he used to come here all the time. he's in the bathroom right now cleaning up." then one of them right after that opened the bathroom door, saw me and then walked out.
i think i was spotted on camera getting a mild extra.

What they said: "Take care" of him.
What that actually meant: "Spit in his drink."
Other than that service is always great when I meet management
That would be bad.

No worries for you creep, you have to actually be in a club to be seen!
Totally understand. I do the reverse ... I don't necessarily seek it out, but I'm friendly with the staff as opportunities arise. But here are some (just some) benefits I've had at clubs I've been a regular at over the years. In order of least to biggest impact
I have not paid the entrance fee at my fave clubs in years
I stroll in, go to the best table that has a "reserved" sign on it, throw the sign down, and sit there
Sometimes the manager or bartender gives me a round for free
I've had a bartender who would charge me for bottom shelf liquor and pour me top shelf
A DJ who I bought a shot for once in a while, would let whichever girl was sitting with me skip stage. Since I usually go during dead shifts, the girls love skipping stage since they're dancing for very few customers and tips.
I've had a manager let me and my buddies bring in our own bottle of liquor, for $150 in tips under the table to him and his bartender. Bottle service from them would have been $300 minimum for their cheapest bottle, we'd always bring in top shelf stuff for our $150
In the higher end, lower-touching clubs I go to, typically the bouncer strolls through the VIP room once per song, or once every two songs minimum. The bouncers almost never go through the VIP when I'm back there, and the girls all know it (or figure it out quickly), which means that low-touch club is not low-touch for me, if the stripper is game
Of course, sometimes the only benefit I get is that I have someone to talk sports with while I'm waiting for my ATF. Still a win!
