My site is mainly a forum open wheel racing, it averages a little over 11 million hits a months. Alot of the members of the forum that post live updates from race tracks around the country.

I have a few people on the site that really only use my website to push information about their own website doing live updates and then they don't post anything about the races on my forum. I understand that a forum is "community" driven, so the way I feel about it is that others should be able to share information amongst other members but for some reason I feel like these folks are just mooching off the popularity of my own site. All of their traffic pretty much comes from my website... Am I way off base thinking they are mooching?

Should I do anything about it or just let it be.

Any advice would be appreciated!!

Thanks
Bill
