From what I know, what started out as a hobby for some bloggers is now their full time job. This turns it into a money making enterprise. No longer, just about tips, but how to get the most readership, credit card referral fees, and the like.
I'd say that while FT is great for giving normal info, it spells death to any jumbo deal that is posted here. And it's not new. After posting my own Jumbo here 5 or 6 years ago, and getting it blown by a senior FT'er, I would never post one here again.
People don't know how to act in moderation, and stay under the radar. It's sad, really, as some of my best memories have been in discovering and sharing deals on FT.
