They're missing out...

What peeves me is when some of the same people will then start writing whiny rants about how this or that site is ripping them off -- which, imo, makes absolutely no sense when they're being given (free-of-charge) a place to express themselves and a chance to actually get paid for the privilege.

Finally, the people running the site end up closing down because this kind of SPAM is choking out the good-quality pieces from the places where they have the most visibility.

When that happens, the ones who caused the problems keep on talking about getting ripped-off by the now-gone sites.
