Tom, you are clearly a giver by nature (which shouldn't oblige you give anything to anyone by the way). The lesson from Colin is that some takers are never satisfied, or worse, see a giver as someone to try to bleed some more, which is what he was doing after a fashion with those interactions. Don't waste another minute on it, on him, or those like him. Just spot them quickly. Everyone with an online presence knows you'll never please everyone. Be glad he's shown his cards so you can cut him off! May many people do the same to him, not that he'll ever learn - it's innate.
loved this rounds letter. anyone asking more for something that's given free are just freeloaders. worst is they are in a professional field. totally support your decisions to do away these 20%
thanks for this post
