It's already been stated what Rendo wants about freebies.  Control.  TOTAL control.  It's all business with them.  NOT community or any such thing.

I , for one, do NOT agree with their business model.  It does look like iron-gloved totalitarianism from the outside.  That appearance is NOT good for business.  It's akin to putting up a sign next to the magazines, "NO LOITERING--You look at it-YOU BOUGHT IT!"  The magazine stand soon closes down because people go where they feel more comfortable to do business.

It is THEIR site, so they will do what ever they do, whether it wrecks their business or not.  Maybe the Freebie forum is a good idea.  Maybe not.  Time will tell.

It just saddens me.
