Thanks for explaining the pay-site concept, CarylB !! I've been trying to come up with a simple way to explain it and you did it for me.
Too many have expressed frustration, dissapproval, and anger even over the idea, but as you have said, let's wait and see. I for one, have held off "joining" any particular site since I enjoy interacting with all of you on the OIFC and here. I'm sure that once you (and I mean that in the general sense) pay for additional access to a site, it becomes more likely that one would "lurk" there rather than another site.
I personally feel that Meat's comment regarding "paying to talk to him" was not to be taken literally, but was more of a reaction to those who have angered him. Yes. the site may require a membership fee, but that only means that it will be less likely that the occasional "trouble-maker" will appear to stir things up.
Just my two cents.
