It is a bit of a pain in the ass to say the least to have to login to read some simple blog post. Normally a guest could read the darn post, but now I have to login to read some blog post that really isn't that important that one would want to upgrade just to read it. Granted in the future there may be some. If you are shooting for more members paying a fee to read some blog posts then it really isn't worth it for the most part. Nice to see boonex still has the dollar/currency in mind. Many in this see more community talk about dolphin like it is the only thing out there. It is nice with many features, but every time I turn around there is some new fee, expensive mod (if someone wants to alter it for free then someone is complaining it was their mod). I understand Boonex has to make some moola too, but I just get tired of all the crap involved with this thing. Too bad there is so much bs involved with this and that it is constantly changing for more money. I really hope those of you that are developing a site can make the money back you invest in all this, because there is only a extremely small percentage of sites that break even, not to mention profit. To invest hundreds or even thousands of dollars just for the fun of is is nuts. Better of going to a casino, playing the stock market and such. Your odds of success are much better than investing in dolphin by far. But to each there own. If you got the money to burn then go for it everyone. Best of luck with it!
