this site isnt about helping other students and creating a community its about making money for one person.
Personally I prefer the system other sites have where all money goes back into the site to pay to improve it and make it the best possible community possible - shows what the site is about - COMMUNITY not MONEY MAKING
but hey its enwiabes site, as he has shown and told us in the past he can do whatever the hell he wants...

1. It's enwiabe's site. It is his property not yours.
2. " helping other students and creating a community its about making money for one person." The two goals are not inconsistent. To make money he has to attract eyeballs, and to attract eyeballs guess what he has to do? That's right - he has to create a community where students can help each other!
3. again why is money making inconsistent with improving the website? It is not. Don't you see that to make more money, he needs more eyeballs, and to get more eyeballs, guess how he can do that? That's right - improve the website!

ROFL SHE COMPLETELY EDITED THE POST TO NOTHINGESS. :') What a useless troll.
EDIT: And... she deleted it. Score one for capitalism.

I think he should definitely be allowed to take back enough to compensate him for the time invested as well as the physical costs (i.e.: economically zero profit).
As for investing the rest into community, that is a good idea - some competition would accelerate that.

I hope the mods get some form of payment for the time they put into the site also, some of the mods are doing such a great job providing useful answers and resources - they should get recognition for all the time and effort they put in to :)

I've already said that I intend to invest some back. Yeeesh. :P Right now I'm in the red though and investing more is out of the question.
