Are Paying sites like Mylot, Duno etc. doomed to become uninteresting?

I have seen duno.com degrade into a messed up site. The site which wanted to promote information interchange via question and answers has been reduced to a nothing site by money mongers. Do you think Mylot (god forbid) will become like that? Are all paying sites doomed to become like that? What can we all do to prevent Mylot from turning into a nothing site?

In some ways, I think myLot has a tendency to become like that. I think it could go either way at this point, and it's up to us to steer it the right way. I try to ignore pointless discussions and stick to ones that are interesting. For that reason, I usually respond to the discussion my friends have started and the discussions in my interests.

I joined duno.com about a week ago, and it is just a bunch of stupidity! People asking the stupidest questions and giving stupid answers. mylot has more quality discussions. Very interesting topics and interesting people. Like I said before in other discussions, I am not here for the money. Sure it's great to make a bit of extra money (definetly can't make a living on here!), but I like the discussions that people have.

I hope it won't become like that! Eventhough me too likes to make some earnings from here, it didn't interfere with posting good responses or starting good discussions so far. Bcoz, here you earn money when you do post quality things. So I think we don't have to really worry about the future of mylot! Also we should discourage those money mongers around here!!

I'm not familiar with other sites. But, I don't think mylot will get that bad. They are already lying down some rules and making sure they are being followed. We can help by following the rules and report any abuse of the site if we see any.
