A perfect example of this sort of behaviour would be like a young aspiring DJ walking into a record store with 10 bucks and can only afford 1 or 2 good records... saving every cent he can to get more records for his collection. After becoming legendary on the wheels of steel he walks into the same record store and the owner says he loves his work and he can have anything he needs, no need to pay.

You just never know when that smaller affiliate will become legendary... wouldnt you want to be on his good side come time to cash in the kudos?
