The Moderating Discussion

[Gets!]

No - we don't get paid. There are no perks at all.

I guess that's why some will take exception to being derided for doing something that is essentially because we enjoy contributing to BF.

...and I suppose to be clear - my motivation has always been to try and contribute to the process of Footy discussion rather than anything commercial

Yeah and I do appreciate your efforts, as does everyone else on this board. You are a good bloke, there is no doubt my friend.

I Just feel you should be compensated for your efforts...

Maybe its just the 'workplace ombudsman' coming out in me? But surely it is only fair?

again a fair enough point.....

I suppose the response would be.....well I knew what I was getting into and I was aware there was no payment..

Also - I have the option of walking away at any time.

We all do things for different motivations....

work for pay - lifestyle - career - personal satisfaction - social status etc

How many lawyers take pro bono work because they believe in a cause?

I moderate because I enjoy hanging around BigFooty and feel like I'm helping to facilitate a great forum for like minded people to chat....that's my motivation.

I have a day job - and my entire motivation is earning enough money to pay the bills.

both take up my time......but my motivations are different

I just bought a yacht on credit! Noone told me I don't get paid! How am I going to pay off the Sea-Word.

I've been there. The parties are great but you end up spending all your money on tight pants.

Like any good Collingwood support, do you honestly need to ask?
