"Granted Renderosity gets a cut but how much would they make without Renderosity?" And How much would Rosity make without them? Without members this site would die a quick death. Merchants, artists, forumites etc all contribute to this site in one way or another. If members complain it's because they CARE! If I didnt give a shit what happened here I would do as you say you do, suck up freestuff,eat up bandwidth and sit back and enjoy the show.
