How did you come up with the idea that we are paid anything? Why would you say something like that?

Jamo,

The "Be A CC Contributor" page says this:

Thank you for considering the various different contribution methods at Club Cobra. While each provide more or otherwise enhanced features, the real purpose is to show support for the site and the moderators. The money will be utilized to support the monthly costs, long term expenses, and sharing with the moderator staff. We appreciate the support! As a contributor, you'll get an icon by your name in every post you make showing your contribution. Premier = Gold Star = Silver Star =

So I can understand how he might think this was a way of paying you. However, I'm sure both your time and Ron's time are worth a lot more than anything you might get out of the contributor funds. And that you are moderators purely out of a passion for the hobby.

Considering that "sharing with the moderator staff" is last on the list, I suspect that you, Ron and Brent will probably use that sometime to have a few beers.

I didn't state that you are currently paid anything, but here's some news that will make you happy next year.....

After all, an attorney working for free can get ugly at times - it's best to pay them. Have a nice new year.
