I'm as comfortable as I'm gonna get, which means I'm chomping at the bit to make a new site >_>

Wait, wait, wait . . . the proposal is that charging monthly fees will promote more membership and reinvigorate activity? If you charged a monthly fee, every single member would leave. I don't understand.

Charge a monthly fee and then ACTUALLY PAY PEOPLE who provide a QUALITY SERVICE, two things that we don't really do now.

How many members could we attract with television ads.(Just a meaningless example)
Advertising is not free... my point is that if this evolved into a business that made profits, you could take those profits and use them to make the game better. I've heard so many of you say "I wish I could get paid to write at chubbs" so do something about it. Seriously.

Edit @Sig: Its not that we dont provide a quality service its great actually, but its only as good as valenteer work can be.

Consider the fact that this is based in a setting that is actually owned by someone else.

Which makes any monetary gain highly illegal. As of now we're safe under the Fair Use portion of copyright law, but the minute we start making profit and paying staff members is the minute the owners of DBZ can start demanding money from us.

EDIT: Actually to get technical the owners of everything we use can. Our signature images. Everything. Each item that is copyrighted and not owned by this new fangled Chubbs company.

Which is entierly my point.

EDIT: And in one sentence completely renders the mere idea pointless.

I'm sure nobody would pay to write anyway, at least not when there's a bunch of other sites to do so freely. I don't know what to suggest, or say...just wanted to put my two cents in before I go lurk.

damn you Anzekay, I thought of this over lunch and came back intending to be all smart and everything

Does honesty earn respect or inspire revenge? Is it smarter to attack the strong or annihilate the weak?

Lol anyone else remember when VJ began offering a "donation" option. You could give a donation for TP.

Oh! Oh! And Sam (I think?) donated a shit-ton to become the new #1 on the rankings. That was hilarious.

Yep, he did.

Money kind of made the whole thing ridiculous.
