    Wait wait you mean @Clutch treats everyone the same way regardless of their member status? That’s bad business because how else are you going to hold made up power over members who haven’t donated?

    You should exercise your mod powers to prevent political talk in Rockets forums. it happens way too often than most think

    The other day someone was throwing around the "N" word liberally outta here

    ironic or not so is a thread started by a fake insider has another fake insider totally meltdown

    Since everyone seems to be throwing their contributing status around I dunno what's the big deal about making a donation it's just a 1 time thing. I bought a support package to keep this site going for the whole year.

    What does a donation do? Do I get some sort of ownership stake in cf?

    No, you get the ability to say whatever you please according to b_allholic. Your opinions also matter now if you contribute otherwise they don't.

    If you like the site and you can afford to, you should make a donation simply because it costs money to run and it's a way to contribute to something that gives you so much entertainment. Entertainment isn't free. This is the best BBS on the internet for a sports team and one of the few to really thrive still despite things like Whatsapp, Discord and Reddit that have killed most message boards.

    But again, not everyone can afford to give away money and Clutch doesn't demand money from anyone to use the site. You don't get any special rights to be a jerk or get away with anything. Clutch deals out justice regardless.

    Edit: Also, I'm sure Clutch profits off of the site and I'm cool with that. He's provided a great entertainment avenue and an informational resource. People should get paid for that.

    And that's why we and other members who have supporting status can tell people that don't have supporting status to go back to where they came from without guilt. #holicisms

    Since the "F" word is not acceptable in acronyms, why do you propagate it by continuing to include it in the posts you quote and not "X" it out in the quote?

    Wow... new level stuff! Not cool @basketballholic. I really do appreciate this site. And will contribute as soon as I can afford to. But I feel that was over the top. Can we just keep it cool and agree to not pop off like that? For the sake of a good ole fashion debate?

    You may get priviledges like King Cheetah mentioned and maybe invite to annual Christmas party in Clutch's mansion in River Oaks

    back of the envelope math

    1. 50,000 members, say a meagre 20% contribute that's 10,000 members
    2. Say an avg donation of $50 per year, that is 10,000*50 = $500,000

    $500k less expenses to host the site etc should mean Owner and mods are pocketing at least $300k. Should be sufficient to ride the Corvette or attend end of year party

    I would prefer if you stop labeling people as racist or not in Rockets forums. If you want, you can take that to D&D.

    Let's stick to non-political talk here.

    Nope. Didn't say that.

    What i will say is if you contribute you'll nbemore concerned with the site maintaining profitable clean professional basketball discussion and you will only tolerate so much garbage without responding to it.
