The problem with the rich is they stop seeing the world through the eyes of the poor.
Most people in small business don't start with a fortune in advertising when they first start up. Sure, if i was born rich, it would be easy to run a business. i can hire whoever i need to run my business, buy all the marketing i need to expose my brand. Most people are not in that boat, & need affordable means to do business in lieu of wealth. Most of the biggest successes in life did not start out rich.
Its one thing to say, give me more exposure because i am paying money that others are not...that's a valid desire. That can be done without segregating non-paying posters. That is worlds apart from what this thread states, which is literally "fuck the poor" send them to their own thread.
Since the web has made information distribution a virtually free commodity, charging people to post on all or part of GFY would be a disaster akin to the Hindenburg. & its mind boggling that someone running a successful business on the web would propose such an idea. Double mind boggling the board administrator thinks it has merit. You have to be fucking kidding.
