NOTE: spammers aren't gone some kid just said "theres economy for ya" a few pages back.
i'm pretty sure thats spam
and to everyone tho says, whatever the mods think is right. I dont think it matters to them much. since they moderate the whole forum. i say you should just become become stricter on the spammers. alot more stricter. then no one will spam as much. i haven't seen any reduction in spam and i know that the poor are losing and the rich are winning.
if the mods put enough thoguht into this like they supposedly did then they'd realize that too
Or you could trade for your forum gold, instead of trying to justify why you should get it for free.
From the man himself.
Ok, so there hasnt been much reduction in spam. Why should spamers be rewarded, then? And by the way, why should YOU get paid to do just about nothing but talk? Yea donors get a little fg per post, but for the most of us, it doesnt make any diffrence, 'cause most of us dont post often enough to get any kind of numbers out of it. In the end, this place is his, not yours. Which means he sets the rules. Dont like it.. well.. you can see that little X in the upper right hand corner of the screen, right? Use it.
Why should I get "paid"? Not getting paid,it's just earning it from posting like it's supposed to be? I'm pretty sure forum gold is a big part of the reason majority of the people on d2jsp signed up anyways, and I don't care how many people deny it was even a factor. Correct me if I'm wrong, because I'm not 100% sure, but don't you need something to donate to become a donater? And if you don't have anything to donate then how can you earn antyhing from donating? ANd I understand it's his forum and all. But if it's made for everyone to come and do whatever they're supposed to do then..why exclude everyone when determining all this other shit? Kind of selfish :/ and for the record, I use that X alot thank you very much

---edit---
yeaaaa i played around a bit, correct me if i'm wrong, i'm too lazy to look everything up but, donating sounds similar to paying for fg. :/
First of all, I think it's a wonderfull idea to remove the forum gold for posting.
It might be true that some people came here mostly for the forum gold but the forum gold is not "gone" or something
You can still earn it by trading or making signatures or whatever.
The only difference is that you don't earn it by posting anymore, and i don't think you could've earned THAT much fg by posting, you would've needed 100 posts to get 10 fg..
