People using TA & Not giving anything back

With things having turned into spam central in many areas lately, i've noticed that some of these people who're advertising, be it labels (who rely on TA to get their few digital downloads) or other news sites (for example resonantvibes.com) don't mention TA anywhere.

Considering the amount of free exposure they're getting here, surely they should be contributing back, with either a ta link at the very least, a TA Banner or whatever. It feels stupid to let people exploit a place which is way above that.

thoughts ?

Not linking ta either yet using the thousands of hits to try gain support.

The signature rules clearly state, that if you have a link in your sig to TA, you must have a link back to TA on your site.

For promotion (in threads / posts) different scenarios are possible. There is the event subforum at TOTA or mods delete shameless promotion.

For GTA I follow the rule, that promotion from people who only register to the site to promote their event (usually first post), get deleted.
