1. New software or not nobody would care if the forum is not conducive enough and if defaulters of the system are not giving fair and equal justice, I've witnessed several cases where two or more persons fall victim of plagiarism but end up having different penalties for the same crime committed, the newbies are sent home while the rules are somehow bent to accommodate the established members. Rules should be rules.

2. Apart from the evil fee, what was the prominence of the copper membership fees? Was it for revenue? Because from my research it seems like a shortcut for scammers, majority of fake bounties are been managed by copper members, majority of the accused profile on scam accusation board are copper members. There are few good ones but the bad ones are just so much, maybe a kind of restriction on scammer profiles will help. You have to clean up the environment from toxic to attracts more people that's just it.!!
