I do not feel that I was trying to goad anyone into doing anything. I was a non-paying member for a long time. However I was also unemployed for a quite a while too. However I didnt try to influence change here until I became a paying member of the site. The bottom line is without funds th site cannot continue to grow. I have no problem with someone being a brain pawn at all. However if someone wants to bring change for the better, it makes sense to contribute to the change.
