Forum software?? Mods?? Why should both get paid? Isn't smf free? I haven't heard any other mod to get paid.
We have to pay for the psychiatrist's sessions if we want to keep doing the job

.
What if the donators get tired and do not donate anymore, how would the moderators be able to be paid?
If the forum has no more money, or if Theymos decides to stop paying mods, some will leave, others will stay. In what proportion ? I don't know.
