Why do you say "WILL NOT" in such a definitive way? It doesn't seem like a good bet as a company to rely on your users and the public to forgive you when you step too far, especially if you do it repeatedly.
I have already requested that Quora delete my account via email (which they did).
I might not represent the majority, I am not sure. But I think that it is wrong to say that users will not punish them.
People are becoming more jaded with each incident (regardless of which company) and becoming less tolerant of these antics. Eventually people will reach their breaking point.
Or it just might be that I am getting old and crotchety. Get off my lawn!
In my opinion it's more of a bad sign that they are so desperate and not focused on generating passionate users who are gaining some inherent value within the system itself. I don't have any hard evidence but anecdotally I can say I know perhaps 100 people in my life who love Stack Overflow but I know nobody who really loves Quora. Personally I think they are blowing it due to impatience.
