One must endeavor to empathize with those less fortunate than ourselves. I would not chastise those seeking much needed financial reward in return for their contributions. If they are trying their uttermost to provide valuable and useful content, then however meager their net output is, they must be encouraged.

I fear saturation point in terms of novel ico's with real use cases is near at hand. The chances of your air drop tokens/sig derived tokens bringing a consistent income sufficient to live upon are slimming daily.

The primary problem that some members have with the specific group being discussed, is that some are unable to produce any output above noise level. Too much noise can drown out the less frequent high value posts. This can destroy, and inhibit, the meaningful interaction and exchanges of ideas.

The forum will eventually reach a point, where the threshold to extract any direct financial reward via posting is  high enough to prevent a lot of the low level noise.

This forum will never separate itself from perceived opportunities to make easy money.
