OK, $500 wager it is that FaunaClassifieds.com along with the Board of Inquiry will still be online and fully functional on May 7, 2007.

Will three people here signify as witnessing this wager?

Frankly the freedom you allowed people previously gave them enough to do their own hangings, so I don't feel protection was needed.
The fact that you didn't see what went on in the background doesn't negate my decision that it was necessary.

As for your ability to defend your reputation, well of course you can, and through some time, trouble and aggravation, no doubt on your part to do so. What my decision for paid memberships being a requirement, is for an application of the age old adage that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. That $10 fee is the ounce.

Exactly my point Rich. KS seems to do quite well using the standard route most commercial sites of the type use. Proffit is made from revenues generated by charging for advertising. This route was suggested to you when you started approaching the subject of making more money. Seems to me that if you have 19,000 members here that you could have gone that route. Instead you chose to make your proffit by inventing a membership higherarchy and charging as associated graduated fee.

A good number of people have a problem with this as they feel it has corrupted the integrity of the site.

Bashing; pot, kettle, black. That's all you've done since you returned on someone else's dime. Call it bashing, but it is my opinion that is poor principles to come back on someone else's dime and start bashing, when you said you were leaving this site on principles (that no longer seem to apply). As far as the question, I'm not avoiding it, it's a waste of time, just like I said. For one reason, because it's obvious it won't matter to you, and two because all you have to do is search-kingsnake, jeff B., or any number of keywords, to find out why a lot of peope don't like KS. Daniel brfiefly mentioned one of the reasons a post or few ago.

You can easily cover the spread with 10 bucks a head...care for something perhaps more costly???

John:

As to your being upset that I am here on someone elses dime. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

As to me not caring about an explanation. Your right at this point, at least not one from you, since I'm quite sure it will consist of mostly Hog Wash.

I am however interested in a rational explaination from a rational respondant.

I'd like to hear your education of Ophis though, as I feel KS has a good business plan even though I don't like the totalitarian way they monitor their forums.
Was that the reference you had in mind there john? If you notice it was also stated that he felt they had a good business plan and would like to hear an explaination as well.
