Useful posts on DDF = more active users/traffic = more deals being posted on DDF = more content for DD to get deals from = profit.
Hence, indirect. I'm curious what AJK thinks I said incorrectly. ETA: Based on his quote, I think our definitions of direct and indirect are very different.
B/c not every deal/perk/trick that pple post makes it to ddms. So if someone is contributing to his full strength and pple are gaining, just b/c there is no HT, why shouldn't he get credit for his help and contribution??? Just my 2 cents.
Did you read my post? I explained that those are 2 different groups. Those that contribute directly to profit and those that keep the forum alive and strong. Regarding your last point - NO ONE should feel that they deserve credit for their help and contribution. If Dan feels that one day he wants to reward people, then gezundeheit. And, once again, if he decides to reward only those that directly led to profit, great. If he decides to reward only those that make this an active community, great.
