Some people will try to make a profit out of anything if they think they can. I think it sets a dangerous precedent that could damage a world that we like to think is friendly, safe and above all, amateur.

My worry is that the gullible will get dragged into this, thinking they're going to make a profit from their writing. They won't - someone will, but it won't be the writer (ime it never bloody well is ::G::) and in the process, damage fandom in general.
