I was surprised when I posted a comment or a question what hostility and abrasion came back at me, not friendly or nice and I was wondering what was eating people that they react like this?

pun intended?
Hmm, yeah, I guess you could say that, I did not even realize I made this one. ;-)
I have to say I feel the same: these business people turn me off. For me feeding and being fed, making others gain and gaining myself is a passion and love, not a business.
I often wonder if these people are real or just doing it for the money, but it also feels a little like prostitution to me, people abusing and cashing in on the difficulty to find partners in the field of feeding and making it even harder through it. I have not thought about the financial line running through everything, but now it makes a lot of sense. In my view, the feedism field should be allowed to develop freely, becoming more mainstream and easier, before restricting it and using it for some people's selfish strive for more and more profit. it might be the difference between FF being in the UK and Feabie being in the US / Canada, where money rules above all else and everything is commercialized to the extreme. I have run my own website (extremfeeding) for decades now and most of the time paid for hosting myself, having no income from the site and I did that because for me I wanted to grow the feedism field and give it more acceptance and not curtail it through making it expensive for users. For me it is a cause I care greatly about, it is not something that I can separate from me, it is big part of me, especially now that I'm growing myself.
