Some clarification please confused

From my POV Linda appears to be acting out of conscience and kindness rather than contract... or am I missing something important? For instance, if i post a lyric up for critique and "Juan Doe" graciously offers advice that significantly changes my original lyric or song. Am I 'legally', or implicitly, agreeing to a co-write split upon use of these changes? Or is "thank you" payment enough?

I've found nothing addressing this issue in the FAQ's or elsewhere and I've forgotten my Terms OF Use. So as far as JPF's concerned what constitutes a binding agreement? And how soon after joining should I, or some just as handsome, expect to hear, "You owe me..."?

Thanks,
