But, in defense of ads, I pay for a domain and a hosting service. So I have ads to cover my costs and that's all. I think that's why a lot of folks have ad. Obviously there are also a lot of people out there who are trying to make a business out of it, but I tend to avoid those folks.A Free Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01038930031019179647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4713908623268184440.post-27761002074357432652009-10-18T20:43:11.748-05:002009-10-18T20:43:11.748-05:00I've never heard of having to pay to leave a c...I've never heard of having to pay to leave a comment.

I think I would leave a most choice and unpublishable comment under such circumstances.<br /><br />I write what I want to and read others whose thoughts interest me, and I never, ever, confuse any of this with business.heartinsanfranciscohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07535397382991383931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4713908623268184440.post-60781952392215122112009-10-16T11:36:41.351-05:002009-10-16T11:36:41.351-05:00Pah!

Like others have said, there has to be a massive dose of ego at play there. <br /><br />I've never had any interest in monetizing my blog, but especially not after seeing how doing so changes bloggers. Probably not all, but I've seen some really good bloggers become less decent people and less interesting writers because of the quest for the mighty dollar. <br /><br />Thanks for the visit to mine a few days ago. Nice to meet you. :)Pyjama Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12339158898477730251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4713908623268184440.post-83344118086348343872009-10-15T21:10:59.361-05:002009-10-15T21:10:59.361-05:00Wow TB this is the first I ever heard of having to...Wow TB this is the first I ever heard of having to pay to leave a comment.
