If I can the cspare crash and it needs to be boosted then yes, I tend to take that option and always will, but at the same time happy to do exchnages and use crdits system that some Fourms/sites has

Something is not quite right if you're relying on non-native posting to stay alive. There is an otherness when people have quotas of x posts and y threads, blinking out when the cause is gone. If you want to have a soul then people need to post because they give a hoot and if there isn't a fundamentally engaging aspect or some top class consistent acting with that payment which sucks in real people, then paid posting isn't going to be the trick. I'll admit I'm a little biased against it from the start.

Paid posting doesn't insure you're going to get good quality members. Those members can easily spam up the forum with really bad quality posts and demand payment for a badly done job. I would say no.

'Rely on'? No. Use as an option to start up? Why not? As long as the quality is there its not a bad thing as long as you have the budget for it.
