Personally I think its ok to give free entries to IM GM's
They are putting there grading's on the line and free entry must me one small reason to push and get a final norm.
In reality they can and I assume most give a donation or provide training/ support for free. That way they can play more that they would and chip in as and when they can afford to - they certainly add to the value of any individuals win.
If we are on limited funds (which we are) then we should look at capping adult support but we really could do with more fund raisers who know what doors to chap.
