Curious some folks are proposing such a plethora of rules, which would make the problem of over controlling by moderators worse, not relieve it.

I do not agree with the suggestion of banning someone for posting pics that are not their own. Fewer reasons for banning, not more. Outing by members would be sufficient. Waste of moderator time and effort.

A member who has just contributed by posting in the threads or pics, and not monetarily should be treated with respect by the moderators, not insulted and accused of freeloading. This is extremely offensive.

Some things that people who have not have not read the recent thread 'Is LPSG worth $60' might not be aware of(from my recollection). The largest number of visitors to the site are looking only at the pics, and never post, or even view the threads. Still, the number of people who read threads is @10x the number of posters.
So, my take, from the owner's business perspective, people paying to look at the pics is probably of relatively of more importance than the forums, which are of more importance to the community.
