New idea for funding the forum

You know, I just perused the JustAnswer.com site. Nice place.

They charge a minimum donation of $9 PER ANSWER and encourage more.

I'm really staring to get disappointed than so many haven't coughed up a five or ten-spot. yet.

For pitty's sake, the folks giving all the great help have each donated in the HUNDREDS!

Off to drown my disappointment in my fellow Vette enthusiasts in a root beer float.

I hope people on this site understand the donation you give, is for all year! The site does not ask all year long. So pay up once and you can ask as many questions you want for as many Corvettes or other cars you want, all year long.

There are loads of sites non-automotive, that you have to pay to play. Some you do not get full access until you do pay. Some sites payment last only three months or whatever, so one payment on this site obviously covers you all year, the entire site.

This site as said before, is not full of jokes, or jokers, but real techs giving real answers/help and if not that, you have quality members giving real answers/help.

I have joined other sites and I have seen this before. One guy posts an issue, 15 jokers post to the thread and then he finally gets an answer. I say gets an answer if he is lucky at all! Or, if you are not part of the "Cool Kids", you do not get an answer.
I am sorry but I graduated High School in 1988 and prefer to keep it that way.

This is a key point and I'm not sure that it is made clear to the folks that are new to the forum & have just a couple of posts.

Let's make sure that noobs don't think that a donation is expected for every post. In bold letters. Somewhere.
