The current model is not sustainable. As Scott mentioned before I don't think that the site is making much money if not losing some. I understand that posters appreciate the extra money, especially in this economy. But if we want to get more exposure something needs to be done. I actually stopped posting deals because I'm not after the money and it is kinda frustrating to look and find a good deal to post and then it goes no where. No discussion that makes the thread more exciting. While I understand that it's great to be compensated for posting deals. I think that the current system rewards quantity not quality.
And the site is losing not only money, but also posters like me. I sent Scott some suggestions few months back that will help in still rewarding posters, maybe even with money, but at the same time make it more beneficial for the site too. I would hate to see a good site not get the attention it deserves. Let's think out of the box, not be greedy and come up with suggestions that will make this site, our site, the best deals site on the net.
