The business model is not based on fairness. It is based on controlled conflict.
A long alone on a board ......boring. A basher alone on a board......ditto. But put them together and magic happens. Drama! Umbrage! Outrage!
It's the very reason that "basher free" sites fail with such frequency. There's nothing compelling about a bunch of hoodwinked saps sitting around congratulating themselves for being hoodwinked saps.
On a side note, thus far 2014 is not exactly a vintage year for noobs, with the most common varietals being arrogant, uncivilized and stupid. Try to up your games, people.
