They know better than to make conclusions about things they don't know about.
It's not "sucking up" that collectors seek. Some acknowledgement of the basic process would be nice instead of giving the credit to someone who did nothing to actually obtain the material.
Learn to say thanks for things you had no part in acquiring. All you had to do was point and click. Why is this so hard to understand?
Many people do says thanks, so that argument is the usual smokescreen for ego trips and hubris. You, personally never tire of asking for compliments, gratitude etc, while claiming the complete opposite. (And on that point, why should anyone show endless gratitude to you for sharing something that's worthless to you? You have stated, over and over, that these things leak out only when the trading community has completely used them to their maximum benefit and when their trading value is zero. If your ego demands that we see you as selfless, share something that's really valuable to you.) But at the end of the day, share or don't share, it makes little odds to me, just stop pretending you are only doing this for everyone's benefit because the first and last people collectors look after is themselves.
