MODERATORS
I think lack of goodwill plays into this, too. A lot of smaller sites can get away with stuff like "OK guys, the servers aren't free, so we need to run ads." and then have people super thrilled with them if there's an option to limit or disable ads for donors.
On reddit, I think the attitude would basically be "get fucked, spez!"
