It made a huge difference getting involved and addicted to the hobby.
They had the same problem with double dippers and people who didn't add anything to the threads. Overall most people appreciate these PIF. In fact, after getting my tank established, I did a bunch of RAOKs. It feels good to pass on the kindness of others.
Don't give up on the PIF. Eliminate the greedy people and keep making a difference.
