Sincerely speaking it's a serious matter but we all seems to see it as a common task, sometimes I have thought about these people working as staff, mod and admins or even those that fight against Spam across the forum what is their benefits as they work here, could it be there is hidden salary which they received we don't know or how are they being rewards or compensated, here is a well known forum with over millions of user and if possible hundreds of person signing up everyday by day.
Well I can't just conclude it all but I think only staff and merits source could explain what they sees and what they received as a compensation which deep inside they are not being rewarded.
Lastly one other thought that came into me is that, here we are a community with mission to carry out the evangelical work of bitcoin which is to spread the max adoption, acceptance, recognition of BTC to make its purposes fully come to reality as an alternative means of payment and many more. Yes today it has been achieved so I don't think there should be rewards but as a way which the platform provides job across is fair enough for everyone here to get engaged with.
That is my little thought.. so I believe Theymos has it all to say.
