------------------------------------------------------------ I don't agree with A, or B, or C, or D :) The mere fact that a person is not violating a particular policy is not sufficient to excuse all their behaviour.

However, there is a page which (when I looked) was almost entirely made of complaints from people who clearly don't understand WP:NONFREE and are upset at therefore being ignored.>>
------------------------------------------------------------ Then you're not understanding the underlying complaint. The issue is not over not understanding WP:Nonfree. That is not why they are bringing up remarks.

So is your complaint that people who don't get it and/or don't want to are upset in vast numbers?>>
------------------------------------------------------------ No David. But you're welcome to try again to see what the complaint actually is.

No, you're the one bringing whatever it is to the list as an issue - and we've been bending over backwards to try to make sense of your complaint. I don't question that you're convinced there's a serious issue, but you clearly won't or can't explain yourself coherently, and it's hardly anyone else's obligation to do so.
