this would surely get your attention. i would apologize ahead if i have caused to mislead your judgement.
if money has not been a basic motivator of this site would you be as active in this forum? would this forum be in any way sensible to you? would this even solicit even a fraction of the time & effort that you have put in now?
How would you keep this forum interesting or lively & inviting to newbies if no money is involve? but like wise at the same time challenging to "pros" of forum posting? would you be even participative or contributor to its continued existence?
say you piece :-)

When I joined here I thought I was going to make loads of money , I was a member for months before I started to post ( forgot all about it actually) I have made so many lovely new friends , I join in discussions I would never have dared do before , I can type so much quicker even if still only 2 fingered , And I have honestly learned so much , The fab extra is to be paid for something I love to do( chat to people ) xx

I guess thats the real beauty in all of this. As we spread the best of our intelligence, or conceptions of things be it intellectual or emotional in nature, its there for all to critized skeptically or accept tolerantly. Then we find friends, we discovered strangers behind anonymous avatars there are "people", the knid of people we want to be, behind them.
The beauty of humanity, pervades all. Unfortunately this are rare in nature of its occurences, since the reverse is also true & prevalent.

Money changes everything around here. It changes how I will respond i.e. the frequency, and detail. It changes how people respond to you.
Money is an all around motivation for everyone, which changes the dynamic of the site. You can't just say how would it affect you because of the money. You have to say how would it affect you cause of the money combined with the disinterest of others. N the answer would be a lot.

A lot has to be said in regards to the way our discussions is being categorized for now. It is way to scattered, that determining what are relevant & irrelevant discussions are of no consequence. Not even hot topics is hot topics, cause sometimes it is called so wherein still respondents are below 50 or 20 at times. There are even some, are just advisory in nature, some are personal events (whether true or not is still subject to query - but who would?), some even are just pure rantings. Its like everyone is looking up the money counter (im as guilty as the next guy) until the light bulb or good idea flashes then dejavu i have now an inspired topic. Even that is still subject to acceptance, lucky you are if you get tolerant viewers otherwise its the dreaded dusty archive.
