I want to encourage competent people to give others a
chance to answer easy questions rather than just nailing
them all.
If you can make money by answering the questions, that
really makes that harder.
Also the idea of "gating" things, by making questions
cost money, would sharply reduce traffic.
For all those reasons, I would prefer to pay for the
current setup than hope I could get paid under a fee
system. (The strength of my preference can be seen by
the fact that I long ago stopped showing up at
QuestionExchange...) |
