But it's kind of a dick move to take something from somebody knowing full well that they expect something in return and then deliberately refuse to reciprocate.

Sure, if you're using Lynx, you really don't have an option. That's fair enough. But in many other cases, it seems disrespectful to me to use somebody's site and tell them, "No, you can't have anything in return for giving me this even though you clearly wanted to." You have the option of doing your part, but you decline to do so. That isn't how I like to treat people I appreciate.
I guess I basically just don't like mooching.
- shitlord 13y agoYou're right, it is kind of dickish and it is inconsiderate on the user's part. I think we can agree on that. But I don't think it's fair to have such high expectations of your users. This is the internet, where everyone is an asshole and half the incoming traffic to your site will be wordpress logins. All we can do is hope the user is nice and will click on an ad.
