I sort of felt the same way. But since I run a similar portal with a points system I figured it was not cash but the last thing I would tell my readers is that they were getting "paid". I explain the point system and how it increases their access level at my site.... I do agree that it is something I would suggest changing if the owner of this site had asked for my free marketing consultation
