My feelings are that when someone contributes to a community site they are 
making an effort to help the community, being altruistic and giving their time 
to help others. But often, when it's a commercial site the owner can just 
hijack this and lock the original posters out of the site with a paywall or 
excessive advertising. 

So personally I don't contribute to commercial 'community' sites unless 
either: 

1 all content is duplicated on Usenet or a similar archived, open, network 

or 

2 the owner gives an absolute guarantee that they won't change the site 
without a vote by the users
