Let me say it again, we do not charge for access to other peoples content, we dont own it, we dont host it.
We charge them to use the full functionallity of our site.
And the site delivers links, just links! And again linking is legall!
And if we choose to profit from ads or charge for the service we provide, is completly up to us, since both ways are legal.
Just the other model is pretty much over used, so we decided to try with ads-free but paid site.

I dont see lawsuits coming from gallery submitters receiving free targeted traffic. Neither they will have legal reason to do so, since im free to link to whatever i want as long as its not CP or hate/racism propaganda....
The fact that i charge for full access to my site doesnt change that. I dont sell content i sell functionallity, i sell service....


edit: my spam thread is in the spam section
btw you have answer there too

Also what about discusssing this normally, without hate-oriented comments? You are grown man, long enough in the biz, lets keep it professional and in a good manner?
