Yes, but if you shut the site down every once in a while... people would just go some where else and not deal with you.I think I've mentioned before that I had a site similar to this at one time. People get to thinking that "they" own the site and can call the shots or act any way they like. In the end, I shut the whole thing down out of the blue and everyone had to find somewhere else to go. "I think" the members on every site (especially the regulars who like to frequent the site) need to remember that B'nut administration owns the site, and it can disappear in a blink of an eye if he/she so desires... there are no International Boundaries, Senates, Congress, or Nation ownership making the rules, its all dependent on the whims on one or two people who have the site for the myriad of personal reasons that he/she desires... and it takes a LOT of work that a hand full of people can mess up when they think that "they" control who can come and who can go, and what they can and can't do while they are here...
"IF" I had it all to do over again, I'd shut the site down unannounced for a week, once a year just to remind everyone who the "real boss" is.
If a person equates a dollar value of $1.00 per person per year (in either valuable content or donation), those 10,000 members who no longer come here mean a lot to the admin... I'f "I" saw a hand full of people causing others to leave, I'd do a quick 180 and boot those people out (and that includes me)... no matter how often we come here, and no matter what valuable content we contribute, we have to remember that we are only visitors here, and that that can change without notice, at any time.
Then you alone... and your site can hang out together... and show each other who is boss.
