I agree with Patty as I only try to post comments that bring value and can help people. There is just to many people who would abuse the system and there would be to much spam coming from people who would just want to get paid.
It would not change how many comments I made. I base my comments on trying to help or bring value because this is a social site. With that said I would not like to see anyone get paid for comments. There is already enough garbage and spam here. I believe it gets away from the "social" aspect of this site.
I'd comment on every damn thread if I got paid. But so would every spammer and e-whore trying to push their so-called "escort services". It would be a logistical nightmare for the admin to decide who got paid and who didn't. Speaking of the admin, he seems to have abandoned the site long ago. So forget about getting paid - you'd be lucky if the admin actually reads anything posted here!
Yes. There will be more comments if that happens.
But I know, many of them will be pointless spam comments too - few users will just comment anything to get paid.
So you need to keep comment moderation facility too - to filter out the bad ones.
But overall, it'll of course help to increase no of comments.
You'd end up with a specialized "Article Marketing Web Site" ... not a bad idea for your next project - it could be quite successful on its own - not so much as part of APSense
I agree, but if moderators decided who got paid and who got dumped, it would have a chance. It would certainly increase activity and that brings in more advertising dollars to support it.
In theory, it may seam like a good idea ... in reality, the comments would be, more often than not, of highly questionable value, from types only interested in getting paid ... would you agree? Better start your own blog, Warren ... lol

I'd comment more often, but I'd chose on which topic to respond...I'd also choose to respond intelligently, not in a spammy way.
