Perhaps they think that people who are willing to pay are less likely to play childish gags like disconnecting when they start to lose etc. Perhaps the quality of opponents on ICC is much higher than on FICS. It is a matter of opinion.

What's so bad about making money? >Set up your programs at FICS and help reverse the commercialization of chess on >the Internet !! Or set up your programs on ICC if you prefer. I suppose I am one of those evil mercinaries from the US that don't necessarily think making money is bad. I have even been known to charge for my work myself!!!! ;-)
