Yes, that is correct. I tried the paid classifieds for a year, and it just did not go over well. I had a LOT more paid memberships during that time, but the actual participation on this site was dropping like a rock. It was just a matter of time before that would have killed this site completely.
So I stopped that requirement. Of course, the drawback is that there is absolutely NO verification at all of who posts ads here. So you are all on your own in that department. Just be careful about who you do business with and know who and where you are sending your money. If the name used on the account here is different from who you are actually sending your money to, I would be VERY cautious about doing that sort of thing if I were in your shoes.
