And another hypothetical...
Picture if you will...a relatively new poster...who has only been around a couple of months...continutally tweeking the nose of moderation and leadership...even though a dunce could figure out that such moderation and leadership can and does read this stuff all the time and has apparently not seen the need to take corrective action...and such poster just won't let it go. Would such a scenario also hurt the administrations goals of revenue enhancement?
Just another "hypothetical" to ponder...since this is a pondersome board.

Gnadfly, if you have something to say it, why not just say it?

I meant phatdaty...all these clever avatars confuse me...
but I'll reiterate the statement, "phatdaty, if you have something to say just say it..."

I guess they would just need to weigh the possibility of losing revenue due to the actions of a volunteer staff member (pretty minimal, if you ask me) against the fact that the volunteer staff member is, in fact, free, now, wouldn't they?

I won't critique the performance of certain mods here because I'd prefer to avoid more points...that said...you nailed it...
They are free (and that, in the eyes of ownership makes up for a heck of a lot of mis-steps...)
I've used the analogy before, but mods, here or on any message board, are like little league coaches...everyone has a beef with them...the pay sucks...and if you ask the other parents (who are complaining) if they want the job you get a million excuses but no one wants to step up.

True, but how do you know I wasn't about to spend a couple hundred dollars per month in banner ads for my latest business venture?
Phat's Recycled Condoms
PS: As to your other question, I too learned about the joy of points in this thread, TWICE. BTW, Whoever that was that said they taste best with salsa, was lying. No matter how you dress them up, they leave a pretty bad taste in the mouth.

So, is it the points that taste bad or the recycled condoms?
