The spoiler was indeed intended to avoid a text wall.(respecting the spoiler although I'm not sure why it's there - maybe to avoid a wall of text?)
I truly don't know why people get on his case about this. If you are just starting out as a musician, you might play for free on a street corner or for very low pay at some dive, or give out free CDs (dating myself there), but once you get successful, you're not going back to that - you want to (and should) get paid. Nothing wrong with giving out free samples to get noticed, but also nothing wrong with moving on once you've made it.
I don't think most people here would have cared if he just quietly stopped interacting on the site. But he got hostile, and that started the back and forth. It's like a successful musician coming back to the corner where they started and heckling the people there.
And with how much both sides harp on each other, I don't think anyone has moved on lol.
