RE: Pay attention to the Active Pages, and forget about the money.
It's all going to be a matter of how well we can automatically stop spam. That's going to be the key. We need more and better anti-spam and anti-plagiarism bots; @cheetah is a hero but it's only one.
As for people looking for a quick buck, why would we ever get rid of those? Look at reddit - a billion terrible low-quality meaningless things get posted for every gem. It's going to be vastly worse than that here because there's money involved, and we just need to figure out how to deal with it.

I didn't say get rid of them. I'm just reiterating points which have worked for me.
By putting the money out of my head, not worrying about whales, and concentrating on community in the key first moments of a blog post, I've been able to get where I am today. I'm not a rock star by any means, but I'm definitely a lot further along than I led myself to believe I could be when I started here. ;-)
Oh, the "getting rid of them" comment was directed specifically to @liberosist who seemed to be saying that someday we'd weed out all the crapposters and just be left with quality.
I appreciated your post! Carry on!
Thank you for that clarification, because now I agree with you. LOL
