Message: [QUOTE="swish7, post: 252954, member: 486"] Whoa there chief. This argument always makes me chuckle. Rivals and Scout were not independent sites. I have no idea if this one is, and I suspect neither do you. I will concede this argument may have some merit. However, the only time someone here ever referred to the balance sheet was in reference to a site from about four generations ago. CTO said she paid 400 per mo, at one point. However at this point in time there is no evidence that is still the case. If someone wants or needs money, then they should share some semblance of the balance sheet and mention the type of work that they do here. I have never asked anyone to moderate a post delete a user ban Stan. Does that count as work? Orange eyes does some neat stuff, but I'm not paying for it. I rarely read it. I understand that some people care about recruiting information. Personally I don't. But, Yeah let somebody pay for that if they want to. The argument that a pay board would get rid of the childish users is ridiculous. Some of the people who want the pay side are some of the biggest children on this board. Constantly, and I mean constantly, complaining about negative posts here. The magic that is this board, that's taken years to create, would not exist if you limited access. IMHO. And I just love the posters that call people cheap morons because they don't want to pay for this site. Many admins whose work I would be paying for spend a lot of time being Pollyannas, and encouraging people like Dasher. I'm not paying for that. If people really want to pay money then set up a donation box. Do it with PayPal. Do it tomorrow. Thousands of sites and shareware developers already do this. Personally, I would pay a certain amount of money maybe four dollars a month for this site if needed. But at least have an admin say why it is needed. Instead you have non-admins saying the admins deserve money for the work they do. Maybe I should show up at these poster's houses and say they need to pay their neighbor money for doing such a good job mowing their own lawn? Don't come on here and call people morons and then reference some mythical balance sheet and demand our money. The phone company does not make stuff up on my bill, usually. If people need money, be forthcoming About why. How many hours are spent "working" on this site. What are the data costs? Etc. [/QUOTE]
