1. anyone who receives money will owe me 50%... my fee for using this forum as profit. 2. VIPs: People who contribute to the community or these forums, have been around for a while, and who post here actively. Well, in some cases, use to actively or visit actively. Also SSC Zone Forum owners here who I don't admin are in VIP til their forum takes off and I limited admin them. 3. Sucking up to me gets noone anywhere, since I'm never around anymore... Once I get a laptop so I can be on when I'm at my g/f's i'll be more active round the forums, but I hate using her laptop, and am normally in her room or the living room, where it is not (no wireless network *YET*). 4. Swift just worked hard and helped me out, and so I kept promoting him, and eventually sold him ssforum.net (although paid that back in hosting him/sscentral for a while, haha) and gave him my spot on council. I recognize effort and work, and what it produces.
