I take the entirely opposite pov. Expressing gratitude is a very positive and generous thing to do imho.
In my society many people find it very difficult to say thanks these days, because they consider it a sign of personal weakness - I think that attitude is misguided, and a great pity.
I am very grateful to the Uploaders here, whether I read what they have contributed or not. I can be grateful they have made books available to others, even if I won't read them myself. Not everything has to revolve around me and my wants.
