I do know many people from my country that use this forum as their only source of income. This website is very popular among our internet cafes and I started to read more about this forum. The thing is a lot of jobs don't pay enough and people are looking for a way out. Do you feel empathy for these people or do you think this forum shouldn't be for money?
What did you imply by writing "this forum shouldn't be for money"?
Maybe you misexpressed your ideas, but let assume that you express exactly what you wanted. I will give you information that the admin stated strongly that the forum does not need money.
I will find original post of theymos later, for now you can use this one for reference
theymos multiple times said that currently forum don't need donations. They get enough revenue by selling ad slots. Also, there are more than enough BTC in forum reserves. And with new rank requirements Bitcointalk will get BTC from people who are buying Copper memberships.
