Greeting & Salutations Digital Neighbors! Happy Monday ADD Irregulars, WSN Aficionados, Friends & Refugees, Early Birds and Later Dayers, PHAM & Misfits! I’ve taken to putting these morning musings over in the article section at Padre’s as a way to “reward” Supporters for their generosity. I have tended to post very little behind the paywall at Padre’s or at any of the other Local communities I visit like the Rubin Report & Phetasy.
I guess since I am not here to supplement my income I don’t give it much thought. I often get suggestions from the fine folks at Locals to put more behind the paywall to incentivize Supporters and show appreciation for them. I am thankful to visit these communities and see what people are sharing. I appreciate the other Supporters since we are the only ones who can post and comment (a brilliant and simple fix for most of your two-bit trolls and drama jerks) in the various communities. It is not 100% perfect, some drama jerks do have money they are willing to spend, and I guess some trolls do too, but these communities can be observed more readily by the host since they tend to be more focused in their interactions. Anyway, that is my Locals sales pitch and reflection. On to the morning thought of the day.
Over at Padre’s this is posting in the 50 Days of Joys article section. But here at the Report and with the PHAM it will just be a regular post, if you think I should make these Supporter only, I’d be happy to hear feedback, but otherwise I like to share them with the whole community.
