Why do so many small forums offer a VIP feture

[Mentor]

neraly all forum i link to from habbox, have tryed to copy a VIP feture, wich i cnat see the point is,
1 alot of the host there on wont vene allow any exstra fetures to be given at all.
2. if ist a small forum with 1 or 2 members no one is going to pay mony to becoem a vip member? making money of a thing like Vip membership on a forum only works on an alredy BIG forum and one thats ueing proper softawre and not a free host, as afra as i can tell :/

They offer it to get money, simple as.

A site doesn't run itself, I thought you of all people would know that. :rolleyes:

i run a site. so i know, but there not going to make money by offering a servis no one would wnat.
plus when the forum is on a FREE host, it has no need to make money.

Of course it has need to make money, the owners greed makes sure of that.
And sort your typing out :eusa_snoo

not every forum owner is greedy you know, most owners only seek to make evn on a forum they pay for, as they can keep it running, and i think alot of the vip things come from copying habbox's forum to much

Hmm well VIP i believe havent been copy by habbox its was there before! And was use by some site before however the site that correspond to number 1. well they only want money or some sort of it and i believe they shouldnt. And forum that correspond to 2. well i personnaly believe that they just want to be sure that some one would by it some time to get money. Rolf no chance except if they get a higher level and a lots of attraction! And to respond to ur title i personnaly believe that its to help the site and to be sure that they stay alive!

im mainly refering to the small forums, as i know the idea has been aroudn for a while and does work, i just cant see why so many smaller forums seem to have them when in some cases tehre not actaly offering an bonus's. as well as being of a size where getting memebsr is teh main priorty, not getting paying ones.
seconly when a forum is being hosted free it doenst realy require monmey to stay alive.
habbox does this isnted of putting ads on the site, wich i think is good, they get dontions buy gieving a good insentive, aka vip.

Hmm yeah well i understand what u mean its just basicly people want to have some money in theire pocket event if they didnt pay ( sorry if its affect few people dont want to be mean) its just they want to have money. money is a priority for them i believe ( might be wrong) or maybe that money could become save and be there for better update of the site like a real url, a real fonction. Who know, life is life!

no one is copieing habbox, they are just making vip, all VB forums come with the feature! who wouldnt make a membershop like that, the owner can get more money to run the forum and beable to host it, no ones copieing it, just making one cos it comes with the forum, same with invision if you have a shop you can do it too, so they can buy it with forum money.

teh siets taht are copying arnt Vbuliten thogh, there free If sites. any habbo forum i link to form here always has VIP. and If forum whateva subejcet i link to form otehr forums, mostly dont seem to have that feture. If you paying for Vbullitn its unlikly u have a small site with 3 or 4 memebres.
