Analysis? The point I was attempting to make in reference to the 'stealing' comment was that using inflammatory language to stress your point doesn't do a damned thing to advance ones case.

However, I will admit to having an aversion to attitudes that imply a sense of entitlement to what others have based on nothing more than wishing you had it too, which is what this seems to be about. Some people seem to think that because they wish this site was something other than what it actually is, that those who accept it for what actually is and choose to take advantage of what it has to offer are somehow in the wrong. This simply has no basis in truth.

As to my 'need analysis', it wasn't an analysis at all. I was trying, perhaps unsuccessfully, to counter what seemed to the the opinion that free muds 'need' the advertising space of the rank listings while the P2P ones do not. Quite simply, who are you to determine the needs of anyone but yourself, or to decide that your needs somehow take precedence over those of others?

Of course, I'm using the generic 'you' in this post, not specifically referring to the individual I quoted.
