Why.. we might as well start paying people for vanity threads.
It’s the New Media.
You mean like the 5% are already paying for the other 95% to keep this site alive?
We might have to go to a two-tiered approach at the very least. Those who actually contribute, in whatever small amount they can, can continue on as usual. Those who do not, will see banner ads and popups to help maintain this site.
Hate to say it, but the tooth-grinding experience of watching the FReepathons drag on while the 95% do nothing and continue to abuse Jim and John's efforts is really annoying.
