You know how much it costs to run servers for a private bt site? A lot if you want it to run well. Also Sct takes donations, and offers incentive in the form of some credit, that’s not exactly pay to leech, hit and running is still bannable.

Check just about any private site they definitely exist because of donations, or do you want to run a site with thousands of member traffic and pay for it all yourself?[/quote]

Very VERRRY low cost. a hundred or so a month. Bandwidth is cheap, servers are cheap. Dont kid yourself.
