I've been away from the forum for a few weeks through the need to close some pressing business. When I came back I was struck by the number of posters who are offering the minimum number of points- namely 25. Some even pay to make their question urgent.
Do you think that this is a consequence of the Credit Crunch or have our members suddenly become tight-wads when it comes to doling out points?
Or could it be supply and demand in operation - the possibility that there are now such a number of high quality experts on the forum that the clients and non-expert members can afford to offer the minimum points?
It certainly isn’t because the answers are being of less value or the questions less interesting - in the last couple of weeks I've seen some superb questions and superb advice offered, all in return for 6 points!!
What the hell is going on?
