  • What could the motivations of the owner be, if not to make money?
    Please add to my list:

    • prestige
    • tax avoidance
    • boost retirement savings (in the USA, business owners can stuff their retirement accounts with LOTS of cash.)
    • Create and disguise a "sex pad"
    • improve the community by providing jobs and/or needed services (start a coffee shop so that there is a coffee shop.)
    • time filler

    Of those, I think a very healthy 401K contribution from the employer to the employee would be motivating to those already paid well.

    Many employees already use the business as a sex pad. (Conference rooms can be gross.)

  • Seems the pink paper has a backing on it to stiffen it. Left side seems to show the backing, which may be pink cardboard. Given the mounting location, I would expect it to be "floppy" like the "lined" paper without a stiffener.
    All of my above to say, I think someone put a "lot" of effort into the pink sign.

  • I appreciate your comment.

    I dislike administrative issues on votes being called out by the board after the vote takes place. When administrative issues are noted after the vote, it looks like the board is trying to subvert the membership.

  • I am convinced the entire actual point of college is to test "ability to finish a project". A Bachelor's degree is a four year project. A Master's degree is an additional two year project. A Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) is an additional five to eight year project. (Do remember that a Master's is not needed for a PhD.)

    This is not a judgement on the many reasons for stopping.

  • While I have heard of people doing this a decade, I have never looked into it.

    How was the install and setup process? How is the resource consumption of the server? At one point it seemed one had to supply their own quests. Are there open source quests available? Anything cool I didn’t ask about?
