End of an era! It was very nice while it lasted. 191 weeks without pay reduction straight through 2 bull runs must be a record on Bitcointalk.
I'm slightly disappointed it's now pegged to USD though. I was hoping we'd reach rediculously high amounts per post againif when Bitcoin goes up 10 fold again

I share your opinion, and I believe many others who appreciated the amount CM paid in BTC no matter how much BTC was worth at some point compared to fiat. Although this is still the best paid signature campaign on the forum, I personally hoped it would not go in the same direction as all other campaigns.
I only wanted to point out that too many people (non-participants) started whining about the rates being so high. I do not know whether how this affected the decision or not but it is really sad to notice how people can be small and petty wishing that others lose what they have gained.
You’ve noticed this well, and it’s not the first time that some members who have nothing to do with CM opt for such moves. But when some of the CM members publicly declare that they would like to participate in this campaign even if the pay rates are reduced by 90%, then what can you expect from the owner then to react in this way.
