I've heard this term (mostly from butthurt contrarians who can't accept when people are actually excited for something) but it makes no sense.

How do you "shill for free"? Shilling, by definition, means taking a payment in order to endorse an opinion you don't genuinely hold. If you're doing it for free, what benefit is there to talk up something that you don't actually care for?

i can't find a single definition that includes anything about payment, so it looks like you're wrong and you can delete this topic
