In my opinion, it doesn't. Though I believe most use transactions through PayPal ( or similar ). If that behavior was regularly repeated, I could see them not giving the refund as it maybe seen as fraudulent or something. So the end result may be what they wanted. Trolls less likely to gamble with their money. He also didn't say he was definitely doing it. Sounded like a quick thought on a possible fix. After considering it, he probably wouldn't go through with it. Kind of getting away from the point though. You made it sound like he was doing it to be greedy or like he was begging or forcing people to pay etc. He was trying to think of a way to punish trolls and make the stream more enjoyable for the vast majority. That's a good thing right?
