first 1-50, 51-100, 101-150, 151-200 ... 6,551-6,571 next last

--------- That 'post total to date' [6571] could be on public display on the members Home page, along with a 'donation status' percent [100%], based on, say a 1 cent per post suggested minimum donation.
Thus, when my posts reach 20,000 -and my total donations remain at $100.00, my donation status would be [50%].
Peer pressure on big mouth posters [like me] with low percentages would rapidly solve the deadbeat problem, imo.
Keep up, bro....
Chump change, my friend.
BTW, do you want to be the one who tells the people who really cannot afford to come here using "pay for play" that they can't come on FR?
I give MORE so everybody can come.
