Do you guys run and maintain this website freely because you find a greater value in it then if you charged for membership, or is it a sacrifice on your part?

I'm not an admin, but to me, it's fun. What I get in return for what I do here is a lot of laughs, people to chat with that share similar interests etc.

I wish my tokenz were $100 dollar bills though:D

I damn sure deserve it:p

You dont give up do you? I'm sorry you cant understand this but a lot of people do things for others because the're nice!:surrender

I run a forum myself, it's a West Ham one, I've put a hell of a lot of work into it, it's free and I did so to do something for fellow West Ham supporters. If I didn't do it for that reason, I wouldn't have bothered and just stuck with the other West Ham forums but I felt I could offer peope something those others dont.

I'm not trying to sell, I'm seeing weather or not I can morally permit myself to stay on this forum.

You gain a value - being able to provide communication for West Ham supporters. So it's not a sacrafice. It's a gain.
And see just above for why I asked.

Sorry dude, you lost me, what exactly do I gain, giving something is a gift, not a gain.:unsure:

What would prohibit you staying morally?:unsure:

That makes absolutely no sense. If you would wish we could make you the sole paid member, in that event mail a check in the amount of $500 monthly to each mod and admin here:D

And Parka....Cause I'm almost positive you have wasted a lot of his time:24::jk

If it was a sacrifice, I couldn't morally stay here, as I'm morally opposed to sacrifices.

I can only speak for myself, but I get a lot out of it, I really have fun.

Yes, it takes a little dedication on my part, and I know it takes a lot of work for Tim and Veronica, but they wouldn't do it if they didn't enjoy it.

Lighten up really, if you go to the river with all those stones in your pocket..You gonna sank:D

You gain communication among west ham supporters and the pleasure of running a forum. If I ran a forum, I'd do it for free too, because I'd have set it up because I'd like the job and I think I'll be able to communicate with more people easier(a gain for me). Plus, I know that a lot of people can't afford to pay it, and I would sympathize with them.

You must hate the military. Many of them have sacrificed themselves for their country and their fellows in combat.

No. They understood that the price of freedom is often your life, and they valued their freedom more then their potential lives as slaves to a dictator. It's not a sacrifice. If I lived in N. Korea, I'd start a rebel army (or try to) and put my life on the line, because I find less value in living under a communist dictator then I do in being dead.

I can gain communication with West Ham supporters on other forums which are free and I dont have to do loads of work on so -1 point to you.
I have over 200 supporters on my forum so people gain far more from me for it than what little pleasure I get from running it so -2 points to you.

To quote her "Objectivism preaches individualism, and common sense tells you you cannot have a cult of individuals."

I couldn't have said it better, so I didn't.
