Eventually, they run out of places to move to.  Anyway, the point I am
making is that Altopia's policy leads to all of their users being
clumped together as a single group.  That's their policy, which may
lead to their users having problems.  Maybe the Altopia users who
aren't abusing the system should change to different providers.
