If I was obsessing about them making money on this forum, I guess it would bother me. I wouldn't take this as a paid job, and it's not really intense enough work to be a paid job. As a mod, I don't really care if they make money off of my efforts. I try to take my share of unpleasant moderating jobs, but on rare occasions I don't feel like it and they aren't paying me so I don't. All of the mods are people that participated on the forum for quite a while and were active. So they like the forum enough to help. That's all the pay that it really takes. The downside is I go onto other forums and see spam, report it and it doesn't go away and it drives me absolutely nuts

I scan all of the forum at the top level to see if there is a problem and then go read the forums I like. I know that people don't like their threads moved, but the whining that goes on in 50+ when it happens is like a kindergarten class that missed its nappytime.
