Let us not forget this forum is actively looking forward to give you best experience.

I mean we have seen people coming in meta thread and asking for XYZ changes on the forum. It could be anything from layout to adding buttons or may adding more security etc. Each time admins have listened to the improvements that were deemed necessary.

I am pretty sure that costs something. Also the number of mods are also increasing and surely they get paid little amounts as well. I can tell this from very old thread here, Are the mods getting paid from this forum?
