Huh? This is in AS' FAQ, and has been mentioned in this forum hundreds of times. There is nothing secret about it.

I do not even consider it a "problem." AS needs to make a living, too, and if they line up and send the snipe, I do not mind paying them when I win, even under such circumstances. It is hardly a conspiracy, just business.
