We don't get paid directly, so we solicit our pay. Who will donate a dollar to the permaban TommyT fund?

When I was a Mod, we were paid in broken motherboards and broken video cards.

It's a prestige thing.. and they get a lofty $250 prestige bucks per/hour, redeemable for goods and services nowhere!

Nothing, The digital plantation owner gains all the profits.

The digital plantation workers do the work and get no compensation.

I think this is pretty accurate. I ran a small forum for a few years, and it was pain in the ass at times. Could you imagine slogging through sludge of P&N every day for free? Running a free tooth brushing service for meth addicts would be far more satisfying.

Genius. I'd pay a few bucks to permaban a few people. I'd also pay a few bucks to un-ban a few of the ol' ATOT regulars that made this place special but are now gone :(
