If I was in the tower, I’d expedite the circuit join and give priority over a circuit basher if at all possible along with a friendly hello, knowing that the pilot is giving away their time and aircraft for free and helping those in need.
Isn't that exactly what the controller should do as a matter of course? Don't they treat you like that?
