    high speed ? **terms and conditions apply**
    also the amount of effort highsite members put into their area and sites,
    users shouldn't just join and want to leech all the time, this is a community network, you need to be active and help out where ever you can

    Business opportunity, someone can make some decent money if they start installing / maintaining links for people that don't have the time and patience to do it themselves.

    ummm.... i don't think infomercializing the wug is a good idea. this will open the door for money to be made..... and as we all know... if there are money to be made, there are people to be screwed..
