We could get SA BBB accredited. Maybe that will help heal its tarnished reputation and attract a higher class of customer (who is, of course, willing to pay a premium).

Everyone that posts here should have to pay a tax. Post like a shitlord and you pay a higher rate. Post quality posts like me and you pay in skittles.

Zoe Quinn is one of many women targeted by the Gamergate harassment campaign.

Support a feminist today!

 Honestly though, if Lotax opened a Patreon to keep the forums open, I don't think he'd have much problems getting the cash needed a month to keep this place a float.

Start a moderately expensive dating site in SA mart, but just link up goons with very very cheap hookers and pocket the extra cash.
