Re: Advertising is a slippery slope too!

Cathey my major reason for being upset is the fact that something as pathetic as money has created so much rudeness and tension. I think that we all have the right to post our opinions and views (also like you pointed out in an earlier posts) so even Pushkin should have the right to speak.My thing is that, most of what has been suggested seems to be a way of promoting 'membership' giving special advantages for those that have the funds to do so. Curezone needs money to run this site because of the amount of information that is being 'downloaded' from this site. Even if you had your paying members it would still cost the same amount of money to run curezone. So why should those that don't have the means to pay any thing be restricted to only reading, when they have given so much to all of us already and could keep on continuing to give? Pushkin has seen a different way of life than perhaps many here have, and I understand what and also why he is saying it. He has had so much critisism for his posts I think this man should have a bit of support now. I personally would not want advertisment either, I don't think too many of us would if sheerly for not having the interruptions (not to mention the corruption you pointed out earlier) But in all fairness, if it hadn't been for advertisment I would have never found some of the things that DID work and help to heal. How do you think most of the books and herbalist have become known? Also Cathey you should never become upset because of your kindness and concern, it is so honorable! But I know that nobody expects all the financial burden to fall on your shoulders. There are a lot of us that can help out, and if no one had a problem with the site before, why should we change it? These are the points that I'm discussing here, it was to show a different perspective to the way many people have to live. Elaina Tweet
