Slashdot IRC Forum Today

Hemos and I are going to try to answer questions today at 3:00 PM EST, on irc.slashnet.org in #forum. Specifically we're going to try to keep the questions on the subject of subscriptions. There are a lot of misunderstandings about a few things, and we wanna clear them up. We'll post a log in this story after the forum is done. Any questions can be /msged to Questions the bot and forum discussion can be had in #forum.d.

    However, as one reader points out:

    The problem that I see is that under this model, those who contribute to slashdot the most, and make the site what it is, are forced to pay the most.'

    Indeed. Though there is a simple solution here - give free credit for moderated-up comments. OK, that adds a whole new dimension to the idea of "karma whoring". But even so, it's only a few percent of the total population, and it's the same fraction that's likely to use their own technical work-around for the ads. You could do a lot worse than to give Constant Writers a break.
