I'm in the process of creating a PBM game, and where, exactly, are all those
who run PBM games supposed to come up with postage, toner, paper, etc. for
several hundred player's if they don't collect fee of some sort?

Are you sure your not confusing the fact that your to cheap to pay for
something people have invested literally hundreds of hours into with some
other "all PBMs should be free BS?"

There is a huge difference between DMing on an occasional basis, and
spending 40 hours a week processing turns, and licking envelopes.  And I'm
not trying to say that I don't do this for pleasure, because the profits
are borderline non-existant.  If I didn't enjoy moderating a PBM, I wouldn't.
Money, however, is integral to continuing the game, and ensuring that people
get turn responses on a semi-annual basis.

Oh, and about the eat me part, is there really any need for you to post
such statements.  Normal, semi-intelligent individuals manage to express
themselves without using such terms, and I would appreciate it if you
would do the same.  (PS, you may want to consider grammar lessons.)

Regards,
Kevin
