You honestly don't see any difference between a)passing around a bucket/plate/donation receptacle and b) a "pay to play" scheme? In scenario A, Johnny Nomoney gets imparted the "wisdom" whether he contributes or not. In scenario B Johnny Nomoney is out on his ass. That's like saying there is no difference between Donationware and retail software, or there is no difference between TFP and WOW.
