That is something else.

When I want to read a book, I know about that book prior, from a review, from a snippet or let me read 1st chapter.
So if I really want to read that book, even with pay per read, I will pay gladly because I want it.
Pay to post in a public forum is different than a book.
When I want to say something publicly, I should pay to say that something. Why? Because if that forum is not mine, I use their infrastructure, their time to code it and maintain it. It is a payment for a service platform.
Ah... that comes the part where readers of my post want to reward me for what I am saying, that is another part, that have nothing to do with the forum platform founders and must be separate.
Another thing is when I give FREE to read education guides. People will pay only if they consider it valuable and the amount they want or consider that save their time.

This is an interesting distinction. I heartily agree with your emphasis on the importance of paying to post in a forum. It's possible that the reason most of the great internet forums have gone extinct or been turned into monsters (looking at you reddit) is because they couldn't figure this out.
My fear with v4v is that it will not amount to enough of an income stream for content creators and that they will have to look elsewhere: ads, paywalls, subscriptions.
I'm not saying posting on a forum should result in a full time income, but I am very much uncertain about the role v4v will play in actually incentivizing really good content.

This meme is funny, but when I made it back in 2022, I put inside many secret words, for those that pay attention to details.

See all the spam stupid comments from Bell_curve in this post?
He's trying to reply to everybody trashing me.
In a real V4V system he couldn't do that. Will be too costly for him.
