Joan,

I did not realize, as an earlier post also mentioned, that my participation was expected.
I'm sorry if I didn't communicate this clearly. It's just puzzling the sheer number of people who have been approved and have never posted or maybe posted one time. Obviously there are reasons and I understand that. I just wonder sometimes that there are so many...it's the volume that I'm puzzled about and this should not be taken personally.

I would probably donate more than $20 and have a better feeling than had I paid a required fee.
This feeling has come up before, plus those who feel the fee should be a one-time fee. I guess I'm a little baffled by this since people pay every year for a magazine subscription and for membership in portrait societies, etc. Maybe this feeling is connected to the fact that this is the Internet, therefore not tangible and therefore seen as not worth as much or as not costing that much to produce and maintain.

I will tell you that I've already put in a good 3 hours today just on the Forum, if not more.
