Reverse pay-for-post: pay-for-no-post
 
Something funny, one of our members paid another member $2,000 not to post on the site anymore (yes, he was that annoyed).

Protoman 05-02-2006 06:47 PM

what site is this? I need to join just to get paid to leave too!

MPDev 05-02-2006 06:50 PM

Last month we gave away an $1,800 Sonos music system; but it is a 'small' community that doesn't treat strangers very nicely so I would be hesitant to post a link (although it's not a secret).

Let's just say the person leaving was a bit on the liberal side and the person with the money to make it happen was more on the conservative side. ;)

Would the person have left (s)he was asked politely?

Hilarious!

This is where a more robust "Ignore this user's posts and threads completely" hack for vBulletin may have come in handy.

Um, no.

And I expect that check to be in the mail immediately! ;)

[high]* Boofo runs off to find another board to make some money on by leaving[/high]

Even better, the money was PayPal'd, lol!

The guy who was bought out got the better end of the deal.

$2,000?!! that guy that paid this much obviously didn't work for his/her money or he would have spent it a lot better and wisely if he did. but good for that other guy, lol 2000 for doing nothing, hehe.
