So I was wondering that who pays Domain Name service fee per year. And it could not be free. And still how this website is running?
There are many mods/admins on the site, didn't you wonder how they were chosen, how are they paid? And who appointed them?
Hosting fees is more than Domain Name service fee, BTT has many signature campaigns that pay more than a thousand dollars per week means that the cost of the site is much higher than the domain renewal fee.
The site also serves a paid service (copper account,) which is greater than the domain fee.
Also, the site can ask for donations, which I am sure will be higher than the domain renewal fee.
So it is not a problem.
The problem is hosting fees, website development, keeping spam low, taxes etc, and the forum has enough coins to cover that.
