Go develop a forum ...
I have developed, owned, and run one which is why I can say what I did. No forum costs this much to run unless one is paying salaries to mods and oneself or simply living off the money.
This forum is run as a money-making business and not a volunteer organization collecting donations to cover operational costs.
Plus the forum software itself is very antiquated and not user friendly at all.
Jim has a sweet deal on his hands here....wish I could do likewise but would never feel right about it.
