Just because they don't want to contribute should not matter. If the vendor rules require them to contribute, but they are not, then why are they allowed to remain vendors?

In my opinion they should be required to play or pay, or else go away.

I think I can answer

We go through the actual Vendor lists at certain times of the year

Then I compare the lists to posting
Then I have to send out E-mails/PM's to find out what happened before we just yank a badge which we have always thought was just plain rude

We try to keep things polite.

After I get a response back, we all decide whether the badges should stay or go so basically we agree in your sentiment that they should "Pay" or Go but it takes a bit of time to work through it all


Also to be really clear if anyone here thinks somebody is gaming the system fire a PM to one of us and we will look closer, at it.. Just understand that we have Mods across the world so when we all talk it takes days not hours for a discussion to happen
