Well it was a faucet, people expects free money from the owner, but without advertising income, its a big problem for the claimers, but bigger problems from the owner.
Yeah, it's sad how people get upset when their free money is taken away :-/ The owners could be out tens of thousands of dollars if they aren't able to win this appeal.
I think they have all right to get sad, it isn't "free money", claiming is lots of work especially if it is done often.
I do understand why they don't pay though, they have lost a lot money too, but I think it is total bs to say this is free money for us...
