Troosha - I feel the same way - everyone is entitled to their beliefs
Problems arise however when some folks are not willing to extend this basic concession to others.
As far as how many members this site has versus active members, I admittedly do not know. I base my guess at a few hundred paid members that are not necessarily active, on two fundamental premises. For there to be active members numbering a few dozen, which again is a guess, there must be a larger pool of total members, simply because no one is active all of the time. Then I make a guess at the level of subscription that is needed to keep the doors open (so to speak) but like I said, I don't really know. My point at guessing was more to refute some of the ridiculously inflated numbers I have seen recently and in the past.

spinner - The easiest way to say it is that there is no jackpot
There really never was. Time invested has never been equitable with earnings, even when this site had a great number more members. The "thousands" of members being referenced is from all time. Appreciate that a great number of those who join, leave shortly afterwards. The pot from which earnings have been distributed, has never been a great deal of money. Even when this site was at its peak with a couple of thousand active members, the earnings distribution scheme to a great extent, merely spread a larger amount over a greater number of people.

Although a theist, myself, I think everyone is entitled to their beliefs or lack there of. As far as who is reading and actively writing - I think you're being generous by suggesting there's a 100 of us. That being said, Blogit does seem to have a changing face over the past couple of months with many new members who have made a solid contribution.

my question is this if there are thousands of bloggers like even blogit claims and if in fact there is and there clicking should pay out to someone half of there earnings. I want to know who hit the jack pot.

OTA. - Thanx for stopping by and I know what you mean
I quite often do not comment on a great number of posts that I read and for a number of reasons. Sometimes it's simply a matter of time constraints or someone else has made the point I was about to make, or I have nothing to add. ....I'm a notorious phantom clicker.

I don't always comment, in fact I haven't commented in a good while on your posts. I do read them though, so I am one of your 21. ~Peace, OTA
